Relatively new to this, though not completely foregin. 30s M. A few years back an issue with diabetic symptoms showed up and turned out to stem from an antidepressant. It was stopped, and a different doctor put me on Mounjaro to help with the diabetic symptoms. A few months later every diabetic symptom was gone and none have come back since; periodic blood checks show A1C normal and stable.. Keeping Mounjaro going to get weight back in order struck the doctor as a good idea, however.

Price became prohibitive, so a switch to Ozempic followed, and after a while that one became prohibitive too, so stopping was the choice. About 20 lbs came off while on it. A regular gym enjoyer in the past, but a work injury, depression and general laziness pushed my weight up too much.

Learning is why I'm here, primarily to see whether more cost effective options exist.

Forums aren't new to me, so working through the info here is something I'm definitely looking forward to!
