gallbladder — my 3-week log, condensed into one table

Side Effects Receipts ×3 Cold Box ×1

Confession thread, sort of.

I went from 1.7mg to 0.25mg much faster than I should have because the scale had stalled and I got impatient. The stall broke about 2 weeks later, at which point I had no way of knowing whether the dose increase did anything or whether it would have broken anyway.

So now I have muscle cramps I did not need and a data point I cannot interpret. Two lessons in one.

Posting it in the hope that somebody at week 60 reads it before doing the same thing.

Has anything else changed? Sleep, food, protein, anything?

Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.

Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.

hair loss is real and usually reversible when you stabilize

early fullness at 1.7mg is different from 0.25mg

sulphur burps are disgusting but not dangerous, 7 weeks and they stopped

constipation is real, boring, and fixable

Resting heart rate up 19 bpm from baseline, settled back down once I stopped escalating. Tracked daily so I am confident.

Strongly agree. Describe your dose, your week number, and your titration speed or nobody can help.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 64 weeks to accept.

About c/sideeffects

Side-effect experience and management, with a strong bias toward the ones that are common and boring (nausea, constipation, reflux, fatigue, sulphur burps) and a hard line on the ones that are not (severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, jaundice, vision changes). This community is not a substitute for urgent care and the mods will say so bluntly.

c/sideeffects rules
  1. Severe or escalating abdominal pain is an urgent-care question, not a forum question. We will lock those threads with a pointer to help.
  2. Describe your dose, your week number and your titration speed — otherwise nobody can help.
  3. No diagnosing strangers. Share what happened to you.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
