I was recently prescribed both these medications by my dr and per usual I tried to fulfill my prescription at my local Costco in Mississauga (Heartland) and the pharmacy said they are out of stock. They don’t know when these medications will come back in stock.

Should I just get them fulfilled from a different pharmacy (shoppers etc) or wait it out a bit and hope they come back in stock?

Has anyone had any luck securing retinol and azaleic acid from Costco pharmacies?

Hi everyone, I have been on Ozempic since the first week of July, I started off with 0.25 mg once a week for 4 weeks and now I’ve moved up to 0.5 for the following 4 weeks per my dr’s instructions.

The problem is I have seen no significant weight loss, the only thing I have noticed is the food noise has gone away 75% ish and I am no longer falling asleep after every meal.

I have also been eating healthier and trying not to eat past 7 pm. My weight has not budged. I am wondering if this is normal?

For reference I am a female in my mid 20’s and I weighed in at 205 pounds when I started ozempic and my weight is now fluctuating between 202 and 204.

Should I discuss other GLP-1 options with my dr at my next appointment? I definitely want to stay on it as the feeling of being light and airy as well as no crashes after meals has been incredible. I am certain I have insulin resistance and I have noticed ozempic has been incredibly helpful with the post meals lethargy.

Thank You

Hi guys, I need some help talking through this situation because I don’t want to go to anyone in real life with this. I feel like God has forgotten about me.

I’m the oldest child of my mom and dad who were both the eldest as well and I basically raised my brothers and cousins. I’m 26 and all my siblings and cousins in their late teens and early 20’s are all in relationships and some are on the verge of getting married.

Meanwhile I’ve never been in a relationship, because I was told that this is wrong. I bided my time and I have yet to find anyone or a potential.

I feel like I listened, I obeyed and I did everything right and I’m being tested with this stuff now. I feel fundamentally unlovable and unworthy of romantic attention because how has it come so easy for all these guys younger than me and I’m still here waiting. Again it feels like I’m on the outside looking in.

I’m trying hard to do the whole de-centre men thing and not look to others peoples situations and compare but honestly I’m having a shitty day and I need someone to talk to about this.

And sometimes I just want someone to want me, and to take me places and buy me flowers. I’m tired of taking care of everyone and managing everything and being the go to person to dump problems on. I want to be taken care of and it’s happening for all my friends and cousins and siblings and I’m literally just a spectator to all this.

Sorry for the rant 😩

Hi everyone, I am wondering if anyone has faced a similar problem and the financial aid office has helped them.

I am only taking 3 courses per semester this upcoming year and I just found out my minimum payment to register is $3000. Is there anyway I can get this reduced? I don’t have $3000 to pay and I am not eligible for osap.

Has anyone faced a similar situation and has success in calling the offices and having them reduce the payment to register?

Thank You.

I was best friends with a girl from elementary school all the way to high school. We were inseparable, and always doing everything together. Her and I also went to the same mosque and from the ages of 10-17 did everything together. Unfortunately we had a falling out the summer between high school and university and didn’t really talk again.

Over the last 8-9 years, I got busy with school, work etc but at times I would really miss her. Reconciling was not an option because she made her feelings super clear.

A few years ago I suffered the loss of a parent and that really derailed me. I quit my job, quit school and basically have done nothing but being home and a caregiver to my grandparents for the last 2-3 years.

I found out last year that she got married and that hurt a lot because we had always talked about how we would get married and the things we would do/wear etc. However in time I got over that too.

Now I found out that she just had a baby. I know that in time I will stop letting this affect me too.

The thing is, I don’t know why I’m so affected by this news. I am trying to understand and figure out why I’m so upset.

I’m not jealous of her, but I also want to be married and starting this next phase of my life. Instead I’m grieving my parent and trying to build my life back up. My heart hurts to look around and see everyone and especially her move on to the next stages of life with ease and I’m struggling to get through the day with my broken heart.

I also am so sad that we were so close at one point and now she had a baby and it’s like all our time didn’t matter.
I won’t be part of this babies life even though her and I, we had even decided what each other’s kids would call us.

There’s also the matter of feeling like less then or that something is wrong with me because I’m the only unmarried person left from the group of girls I used to be in at the mosque. I met some aunties this weekend and they made comments about proposals and getting married to me.

I feel like my former friend is a test for me, and I’m somehow not passing it. I make duaa for her and I want nothing but good things for her. But I feel like every time I’m in a tough spot in my life, somehow I find out about some new amazing thing that is happening in her life.

I don’t know how to process all this and if you’ve made it this far in this wall of text, thank you for reading.

Hi everyone, I am having a very hard time finding beef short ribs and meat for bulgogii that is halal.

My local halal butcher does not do these cuts, they are a very basic butcher with cuts of meat intended more for Pakistani cooking.

Does anyone know where I can find halal cuts of meat for Korean dishes such as LA galbi and bulgogi?

I am willing to go anywhere in Mississauga lol

Thank You in advance!!

Hi everyone, I got an iPhone 17 pro max when it released and I’ve noticed in the last month it has started to randomly restart itself.

I am just on social media, my emails etc nothing too heavy duty and it will restart. It’s happened during calls as well.

I do have apple care but I’ve never actually utilized it. Is this something I can use to help my phone get fixed?

Thank You

I recently purchased the mini magnum ice cream bars in the Caramel and the double raspberry flavour. The caramel bars were perfect but the raspberry bars have no raspberry sauce in them. It was just the chocolate shell and raspberry ice cream!!

Y’all I know I’m late to the party, but I drove past Steeles/Bramalea after a few years today and the Canadian Tire distribution centre is gone!!???

Everything was demolished and from afar it seems like they’re digging underground. Does anyone know what’s being built there now?
