r/GLP1Discussion

I’ve read several posts that people who get the injections experience the allodynia/ dysesthesia. I recently increased to the 9mg Wegovy pill (been slowing working up since June) and am just now experiencing a sunburn-like feeling a few places in my body. Been about a week now. It’s not intolerable, just uncomfortable.

Has anyone else taking the pill experienced this? Or does it not really make a difference if it’s the injection or the pill, since it’s the same drug anyway?

If you have experienced this on the Wegovy pill, how long did it last? Or did it stick around?

66 years old. Need to lose about 40 pounds. Tried starter dose of the Zepbound injection. I never went to the second week. I was so sick vomiting and literally in bed for the week I couldn’t function so I thought I’d try again and I just am into my first week of the Wegovy bill the start dose and I’m contemplating just stopping it. I was violently throwing up for hours last night on the floor with diarrhea in bed all day again it’s just I’m so sick. I just I couldn’t even keep water down and I’m missing out on so much the last few days. Do you think some people are just extra sensitive to it and can’t do it I don’t mind powering through nausea and an occasional vomiting, but like I said this is over the top for me. I hate stopping again, but at my age I hate missing out on life. Good luck to everyone going through this!

I am shedding hair like crazy. Anyone else? Is there anyway to prove it is from the zepbound?
