Been on the real Ozempic (I’m a type 2 diabetic) since January. I’ve been on 1 mg since the middle of April. I’ve only lost 9 lbs, but I feel like I’m less inflamed and can tell a big difference in how my clothes fit now. People tell me I could just be a slow responder and to be patient. Im definitely eating better. This is frustrating!
At home A1C test (I’m apart of a diabetes research program where they use At home A1C tests). Holy crap. Messaged my doctor if I should be concerned and if I need to lower my meds. I’m on Metformin 2,000/ mgs a day and Ozempic 1 mg. Doctor doesn’t seem concerned.
Is there any treatment? My right lower shin is COVERED in this. Not just a few spots but fully covered. I’ve read that it should clear up after 24 months. Well it’s been 2 1/2 years since my diagnosis. A little background: I went into DKA Dec 2023 undiagnosed and my A1C was 16.9. This is what happens when you don’t go to the doctor when you should! I’m now in control and A1C as of 3 days ago is 4.9. It is just so gross looking and I would like to wear capris without feeling self conscious.
