A little backstory I was on reta for eight weeks I was on the dose of .5

I didn't really have any side effects while on the medication other than the occasional bloating which went away after taking gas X ECT I got extremely ill one night and ended up going to the hospital by ambulance where they ran all kinds of tests and did an x-ray and a scan pretty much told me I still had food in my stomach but everything looked fine I ended up coming home and was okay for a few days woke up 3 days after first hospital visit and felt okay so started doing a lot of stuff around the house instantly felt like I was going to pass out or throw up or both so ended up going back to the hospital all my blood work everything was fine this has been an ongoing battle but it is getting better today is 23 days since my last shot which I quit cold turkey and a lot of my GI issues have subsided I still will get slightly nauseous every now and then or every few days for just a few hours but I have pretty much been on the extended BRAT diet for almost two and a half weeks I have added in some lean proteins ECT and my pcp says thats fine just to slowly reintroduce things as the shot leaves my body is anyone else experiencing things similar to this I'm also noticing now that some days I'll be really hungry and some days I will be hardly hungry at all which from what I've read is normal as the shot is leaving your system I was waking up in the morning feeling kind of shaky and weak and just out of it a little bit that is becoming better as well just looking for anyone that might be going through anything similar it's always good to have some support

So I was on Retta For about eight Or nine weeks I had hardly no side effects while I was on the shot except bloating every now and then which I would take Gas-X and would be fine I was on .5 the whole time I got up one night out of bed because I started not to feel well and that was followed by 5 hours of being so nauseous and shaky but not being able to throw up even trying to make myself I couldn't so I was taken to the hospital by ambulance where they did blood work a CT scan and x-ray everything else everything pretty much looked good came home used Zofran Gas-X ECT that was the night before shot day I decided not to take the shot anymore because of how severely sick I was went back to the hospital by ambulance three days later because I woke up that morning feeling good so I tried to get up and do a good amount of things but I was so weak I started feeling like I was going to throw up and pass out and got super shaky again this time when I went they did more blood work everything looked even better than before so was told I have to let the shot run its course coming out of my system it has now been 19 days since I've had a shot prior to today the last 3 days I have not had to take any nausea or gas medicine I have pretty much been on the BRAT diet for the last almost two weeks I have added lean turkey and boneless skinless boiled unseasoned chicken breast and egg white but I'm still pretty much having to eat like this I know that a lot of it stems because I quit cold turkey and did not titrate down I am just tired of living what feels like a groundhog day everyday I wake up and I feel out of it a little bit and a little weak and by mid afternoon most days here recently I feel great today I had a setback where most of the day I was nauseous and had acid out of nowhere also TMI but for the first week and a few days I had liquid bowel movements that were yellow I was told this is because my digestion started moving so fast it didn't have time to turn the proper color pretty much now I seem to be having a little bit of constipation more than likely which I read your gut will probably go back and forth on because it is trying to figure everything out pretty much is anyone else experiencing this or has went through it I am very hopeful each day seems to be getting better little by little Sunday will be 21 days so 3 weeks off the shot I was also checked to make sure it wasn't anything else besides coming off of the shot and it is not my pancreas looks great and so does everything else no infection or anything someone give me some hope
