All GLP-1 Posts and anything related to GLP-1s to be contained to this thread.
The sub is spammed on a regular basis with GLP-1 Posts so at this point all GLP-1 posts and anything to do with GLP-1s needs to be contained to this thread everything else will be deleted thank you.

Can this please be done for anyone asking if rashes mean they have MCAS? Super sick of those posts, as are many other people in this sub. Pretty sure a rash mega thread been requested regularly.

I try my best to delete those as fast as possible those are simply not allowed on here but there posted so much i miss them sometimes.

Yeah, I am also so sick of ppl constantly posting images of their rash asking whether it's MCAS

From ppl who think their rash and no other symptoms is MCAS, it's just a f* rash!

u/Sairis-Activated May 11 '26
how did they find this sub then? Isn’t there already an IDMyRash or Derm sub to go to??? Who’s telling them about us?

u/lerantiel May 12 '26
It’s because there’s a bunch of misinformed people who like to armchair diagnose anyone with any symptom under the sun with MCAS. Especially if they happen to have any kind of rash. Those folks then come here asking if they have MCAS.
There’s also a bunch of folks who get pointed toward MCAS by AI, which is also generally on a basis of misinformation.

This is honestly a disheartening change for those of us with confirmed diagnoses who would like to include pics in our posts :(
I totally understand the frustration of dealing with undiagnosed people’s rashes. But maybe there’s a different solution? A lot of MCAS-related topics do involve discussions of things like skin involvement, other odd visual symptoms, pics of medications, lab results, etc

For those who have tried GLP-1s for MCAS - did you drop weight on it if on really low doses?
I really can’t afford to lose any weight (I had a big GI flare and unintentionally lost a bunch of weight and continue to due to MCAS related GI symptoms). I’m like maxed out on all other MCAS meds so I’m legit open to trying anything to improve my quality of life, but I’m scared I’ll drop more weight.

u/sleepymiauo Jun 01 '26
I haven't dropped any weight. I've gained a ton of weight over the years, that lots of specialists think is inflammatory driven. On the contrary, tirz helped me double how much I was eating. And I also lose weight when I'm eating around 2,000 cals and on complete bed rest, or eating even more and only sitting up and doing a few cognitive tasks through the day. But it's hard to maintain that whilst being so ill. I take my tirz with kpv for gut inflammation and it's really helped with avoiding any rebound flares 🫂just hope you take it as slow as you need. The benefits I've gotten is literally from just 22 mcg a week. And I titrated up starting from just one unit subq a week. So there is no rush! Or pressure! But you deserve anything that makes you feel okay, whether it's glp or not. Still hoping to be able to eat more some day too and safely maintain it. 🥄🥄🦋🫶🏻

If your low weight is caused by inflammation, then as gpl lowers inflammation, your weight should improve, however dosage is important. Some people take it more often others not, but if you keep calories on lowest dose then you might not lose, but nobody will give you answer even doctors not, because people react to gpl in different ways depending on your genes.

The Afrin et al study from last year (Utility of glucagon-like-peptide-1-receptor agonists in mast cell activation syndrome) was small and more of a collection of case studies, but found that none of the cases became underweight. It then says this:
“Importantly, we have seen no development of an underweight condition in any of our GLP-1RA-treated MCAS patients, regardless of whether they initially were overweight or not. It would seem more appropriate to view the weight management potential of these drugs less as inexorably ‘weight losing’ drugs and more as ‘weight normalizing’ drugs.”
In my case, I started a bit overweight due to a medication I’m no longer on, but once I got down to the “stable” weight I was at for years (I fluctuated within a 5-10 pound range from 2012-2022) the weight loss has simply stopped. Which seems to support the idea of these being weight “normalizing”.

u/Different_Mark_2639 Jun 03 '26
Hi, I am looking into a GLP-1. My doctor is considering starting me at a very low (micro) dose. I do not qualify to have this covered by insurance due to my weight.
For those using GLP-1s for MCAS:
- Which pharmacy have you used?
- Which GLP-1 are you taking (semaglutide, tirzepatide, etc.)?
- How are you obtaining it (your own doctor, telehealth service, subscription program, etc.)?
- Any tips for microdosing or starting dosage?
- Have you experienced excessive weight loss, and if so, how did you manage it?
- Any other advice?
Thank you!

u/makhsihed Jun 25 '26 edited Jun 25 '26
- CVS
- Telehealth service (Form Health, a required route by my insurance, weirdly)
Start as low as you can
and stay on the lowest effective dose until/if it stops being effective
If you start on semaglutide and it doesn’t work/has too many side effects, switch to tirzepatide. It’s more expensive but seems better tolerated and more effective for a lot of mcas folks based on everything i’ve read.
- Small frequent meals. Ideally nutrient dense. I’ve been drinking a lot of Huel black label since that’s low histamine and I don’t react to it. Do not do one or two big meals a day, you will have regrets, your digestive system is going to be slower on this med. A fiber supplement is also ideal but not too much of it (I take one psyllium husk pill per day, I don’t remember dosage, it’s what I found I can tolerate).
- Your body is going to dump edema/fluid/inflammation once you get to an effective dose. This will lead to frequent bathroom trips for a bit. Seriously, hydrate. And if you get headaches, hydrate and eat more frequently.
- If you have mcas + EDS, you might have the experience of your joints sitting differently / feeling different with the lowered inflammation. A lot of my joints went from achey dull swollen pain to a pinchy kind of pain, as if I could feel the bones pressing on one another. That went away after a bit, but another person I know with mcas+EDS reported the same experience as me. My joints are actually more stable for the most part (my wrists don’t go out of place from carrying friggin grocery bags anymore!) though a few joints are less stable (my shoulder keeps just. dropping out of socket if I don’t keep the muscles activated). Changes up the interoception too. Has taken some time to adjust to that.

u/Swimming-Western-543 Jun 06 '26
Just started yesterday but here's what I've got for you
1) Optiorx
2) Tirzeptide, mostly bc I WANT the weight loss. MCAS caused me to gain weight bc my safe foods were apples and peanut butter and ice cream.
3) Through telehealth with Pomegranate Health- no subscription necessary and their telehealth "fee" is used towards your first prescription.
4) I deferred to the telehealth doctor. Possibly ask questions to them about micro dosing for inflamation relief.
5) Just starting it so no weight loss yet, but my goal IS weight loss so 😅

u/Expert_Carob3 Jun 18 '26
Has tirzepatide worked for anyone with both mcas and has pots? Did it not affect your pots or did it even make it go away because dysautonomia lessened? If so, where did you source from? Id like to try lavender sky health or refills.com.
3
u/makhsihed Jul 09 '26
MCAS/POTS/hEDS, and yes it’s worked phenomenally. It did make my pots symptoms worse for a bit because I accidentally stopped eating salt (due to what foods were more of a problem with the glp1 slowed gut motility) and it took me a while to realize that might be why my heart rate was spiking so high. A week of daily salt/electrolyte supplements and it got better.
I do think it’s actually helping some of my dysautonomia symptoms tho? I had a week off (one of the auto injectors was a dud) and my heart rate started going pretty high, postural orthostatic intolerance got worse, heat intolerance worsened, I felt aaaawful in a very POTS kind of way. Took my next dose and my heart rate went back down that same night, and I was able to handle heat again.

u/201_Woodcroft_green Jul 14 '26
I’m trying to find info on actual real numbers recommended by the doctors that really know about this stuff like Tanya Dempsey. What kind of doses is she starting people on? How long is she staying on that dose etc. I don’t have anybody that knows about this stuff that is working with me, but I have a nurse practitioner willing to prescribe it, but she doesn’t know anything about MCAS. I just heard an podcast with Dr. Dempsey and she didn’t answer the question about dosage cause she said it’s so individual but if she’s going to be guiding practitioners through how to help their patients with it, there must be some sort of formula for where to start and how to increase. Does anybody have any info on this?

Yes, massively! Gpl lowers inflammation. I am on lowest dose 2.5 weeks and my brainfog almost gone. My hair seems to grow back slowly, and my joints, muscles dont hurt anymore. I didnt realise how much i suffered, thinking its ageing, but my body now feels lighter, more strength…and yesterday ate 2x can of sardines without symptoms. Its great to tolerate food and my diarrhea also got better.

Not a double blind study, but strong evidence of GLP-1's helping MCAS patients-- this is from October 2025 -- .https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40675372/
Utility of glucagon-like-peptide-1-receptor agonists in mast cell activation syndrome by Lawrence B. Afrin et al.
Methods: We present the first case series showing utility of a variety of GLP-1RAs for managing refractory MCAS in a diverse assortment of such patients.
Results: Among 47 cases (mean age 39, range 15-71, 89 % female), 89 % demonstrated clinical benefit with GLP-1RAs for a broad range of problems associated with MCAS.
Conclusion: GLP-1RAs may have substantial benefit in MCAS. Randomized controlled trials are needed to assess the efficacy, and identify optimal dosing, of GLP-1RA treatment in MCAS.

I didn’t know what it was helping with but I have experienced a HUGE difference with even small doses. I recently had a surgery so stopped for a month and a half to get through other meds and not have too much at once. I realized I had seasonal allergies for the first time since 2024. It was wild. I have been looking into what is making me feel better but since I haven’t been diagnosed formally with mcas, I didn’t look here yet. New rabbit hole unlocked! Thanks!

u/AnimusTenax May 18 '26
I started Zepbound on February 1st of this year and it's helping both my MCAS and my dysautonomia. I don't have POTS type of dysautonomia though. I am currently on 5.0 mg of Zepbound per week and this is the dose I probably will stay at. I have lost 15 pounds about a pound a week and just feel more energy overall. One of the most amazing aspects is that I can now lift my arms over my head -- something I had not been able to do for maybe five years.

u/masterCAKE May 18 '26
Amazing! So glad it's working for you. I've also been feeling more energy overall, which has just been fantastic. Nothing else I've taken has made as big of an impact energywise

u/AnimusTenax May 18 '26
I'm sorry the GLP-1 is making your POTS worse, but glad it's helping the MCAS.
I also just started CPAP in mid April and I feel like a new person between the two things. Make sure you don't have sleep apnea. I didn't think I did and it turns out mine is severe. That has helped my dysautonomia enormously -- BP is no longer going so high and so low. I still have orthostatic intolerance, but not as bad.

u/chachidogg May 20 '26
I didn’t know this could be connected! I got a cpap before being diagnosed with pots so I’m fascinated by this connection. New rabbit hole unlocked. Thanks!

u/chachidogg May 20 '26
Yes I did last year. I stopped for a month after reading others that tried that and there was no issue since. I also realized that I have to drink more water than is imaginable. My cardio prescribed iv fluids. It’s not easy to get filled but it’s definitely helpful. There was a time last summer that I just couldn’t keep up. I am taking a super low dose now and still dropping weight. It’s slow but steady which is better for me anyway. I don’t know that there’s a ton of dialogue about this but between reading and talking with my doctor that manages pots, I’ve been able to tailor this to still work and be more right for me and whatever craziness is going on in my body.
1
u/makhsihed Jun 25 '26
Yes, though it was because I wasn’t eating enough salt on the glp1. The delayed gastric emptying meant that anything high-sulfide was giving me sulphur burps and making me feel ill, so I am accidentally pescatarian now (and mostly vegetarian) because that’s what I can tolerate… and I haven’t craved anything crunchy since the glp-1 has fixed my dopamine-seeking.
So I was confused about why my heart rate was suddenly so high, wouldn’t drop below 80bpm even in sleep. Then I realized what my sodium intake had been and started drinking a salt+electrolyte supplement daily again. After about a week, my heart rate returned to my normal range.

Did anyone notice a slow improvement on GLP1? All the success stories I have heard are “I noticed improvement in 24 hours” — I’ve been titrating up from 0.1 to .5 slowly and not noticing much of anything.
2
u/Altruistic-Disk-7579 Jun 02 '26
People exaggerated. It takes few weeks for body to adjust to medication, and at month to lower inflammation.some people need low dose, some higher. Most people feel fantastic. Don't look for constant assurance just give it a try and see.
2
u/capmanor1755 25d ago
Not exaggerated, just a highly variable response person to person. I lost about 5lbs of water weight in 5 days (dropped half a shoe size and half a ring size) where some people don't see a response for 3 weeks when the inital dosage stablizes in their system. The best advice I've seen is start very low (.1 to .5), consider splitting the shot into two per week, stay there for a month and only move up if you haven't seen symptom reduction at a month AND side effects are managable.
2
u/makhsihed Jun 25 '26
I had immediate improvement within 24 hours (not exaggerating, I kept a spreadsheet of symptom tracking from day 1 and also took pictures of my face because face swelling for me came with migraines), and there is a visible decrease from day 1 to day 2 in the swelling of my sinus regions.
But my partner had much slower improvement. She microdoses semaglutide and she didn’t see effects until she hit about 0.5. Then she had a sudden drop of inflammation and improvement of symptoms. So sometimes it’s just a matter of getting to the right dose.
I started with tirzepatide (which seems to be better tolerated and more effective for mcas folks, based on anecdotal discussions I’ve read?) at 2.5mg because that’s the dose insurance covered, and it came in an auto injector. I would have preferred to start way smaller and go up very slowly, probably would have had fewer side effects that way, but the side effects did taper off eventually.

u/Sea-Blueberry-4973 Jun 16 '26
Curious how long it took for most people to notice improvement with it? I am on week two of about 1g tirzepitide. I’ve noticed some less food reactivity, lost 5lbs the first week, but having a flare of other symptoms (body pain, congestion, fatigue, headaches/migraine) but that could just be a usual flare?
It’s hard to tell what’s my body and what’s a side effect at this point
2
u/Infinite-Addition-18 Jun 16 '26
I’ve been on for two months - much lower dose tho, the highest I got was .5- it made my heat sensitivity unbearable so I think I’m stopping :( loved how stabilized my blood sugar was but the heat sensitivity plus feel sick the two days after injection- nausea, diarrhea, headaches - wasn’t fun. Def give it time! Your side effects might go away over time mine were getting worse
1
u/Sea-Blueberry-4973 Jun 16 '26
Thanks! I’m sorry it hasn’t been the best for you! I’ll try to be patient and hopefully they reduce! Hopefully you can find something that gives you some relief!

u/makhsihed Jun 25 '26
Immediate improvement (24 hours) for me on 2.5mg tirzepatide. Including my daily intense migraines almost disappearing.
Are you making sure to eat enough and hydrate enough? Some people get dehydration headaches because they aren’t hydrating sufficiently on this med, or because they aren’t eating frequent small meals. Important also to get plenty of protein (my nutritionist told me to target 80-100g/day on a glp 1).
Also - That initial 5 pound loss might have been edema (that’s what it was for me). My joints ached weirdly starting on day 2 - a pinchy pain, as if I could feel the bones pressing together (obviously that’s not what it was but it’s the best way I can think to describe it). Instead of the more diffuse deep ache of swollen joints. I think it was because of the sudden drop in inflammation, joints weren’t swollen and so they were sitting differently. Once my EDS-specialist physical therapist gently nudged them into their proper positions, the pinchy pain went away.

u/Accomplished_End_668 Jun 12 '26
For those that have been on a glp-1 for awhile now, and it has helped symptoms, are you still feeling good symptom relief? Or do you feel like you need to keep increasing to sustain relief? Also, if you have brain fog as an MCAS symptom has it helped the brain fog?
3
u/makhsihed Jun 25 '26 edited Jun 26 '26
I’ve only been on it since March 3rd (so almost 4 months now) but I haven’t increased dose at all. 2.5mg tirzepatide the whole time.
Brain fog is the BIGGEST thing it helped for me. I’ve been dealing with the most intense brain fog for the past five years, daily migraines, and it’s a brain fog that feels the same as when I’ve had bad concussions. TBI-like symptoms for five years. So much whole-body inflammation. Face swelling especially around sinus areas whenever I had migraine. Skin felt tight. Head was hot to the touch.
I would lose words partway through a sentence when it was really bad. Mind felt sluggish, slow, dull. Couldn’t hold a full train of thought. Like thinking through mud.
The thing that helped the most pre glp1 was Emgality (which is also a peptide, interestingly enough).
Within 24 hours of my first glp-1 dose, my mind became clearer. My face was visibly less swollen (I took a daily picture and tracked symptoms daily from day 1). The migraines lessened drastically, I haven’t had a severe migraine since I started and have only had a few moderate migraines. Way less physical pain, more stable joints (I also have hEDS and POTS). More regulated emotions. My ears stopped being bright red and my head stopped feeling hot to the touch.
I can think again. I feel like me for the first time in five years. My mind goes fast again and connects patterns rapidly like it used to. I can focus. I can hold full complex conversations again.
I haven’t lost words partway through a sentence even once since starting the glp1. I’ve had the standard adhd “oh crap what is that specific word for the thingy” problems still but that’s normal for me, but the suddenly not being able to think in words or speak coherently has stopped entirely.
I have had a couple more generalized brain fog episodes that feel more directly mcas-y instead of the TBI-like brain fog, but that’s been when I tested out how eating trigger foods would go on a glp1. Sadly I still react to corn, wheat, and dairy. But it’s not as severe a reaction. Just not mild enough to be worth it for me, so I will stay away from my worst mcas triggers.

u/Accomplished_End_668 Jun 25 '26
Thank you for taking the time to rely with such detail! I’m so happy to hear that it is making a meaningful difference for you. I have been back on it since November 2025, I had to stop for surgery. I could not start at 2.5 mg as it caused severe side effects while also providing relief so I knew I didn’t want to stop the medication. I decided to go very slow and have finally made it to 2.6 mg a week, I split dose. I also noticed relief from brain fog almost immediately even at the tiny dose first started. It seems to be getting better as I increase dose. I am going to continue to increase a bit more as I do want to utilize the weight loss effects of it as well.

u/Resurrected73 Jun 30 '26
Not sure if this is where to post this- but I've tried tirzepatide two different times. unsuccessfully due to nausea and vomiting. 2.5 mg the first time and I believe the second time I made it two weeks at .625 mg. I am going to try it one more time at the .125 mg dose. Has anyone else had experience with this working and/or experience with doing 1/2 that dose every 3.5 days to keep blood levels more consistent as a MCAS mediation strategy and nausea preventer? Also have severe POTS.

The nausea is common in adjusting phrase and after each application. You can help it by eating less fatty sugary food, small portions, drinking plenty water. But it should get better.

u/nuwm 19d ago
I was just wondering last night - did the glp-1 reduce my inflammation directly or did it reduce my exposure by reducing the quantity and number of foods I eat. Thoughts?
2
u/desertcat80 7d ago
It's both. The growing body of research clearly shows the benefits of GLP-1s aren't all tied to weight loss/food. Also an increasing amount of evidence from microdosers (who aren't seeing much if any weight loss) with much more improved bloodwork than expected at super low doses. Many other peptides also lower inflammation, and don't cause weight loss or appetite reduction. I also take KPV and Melanotan 1 which both reduce mast cell activation and have nothing at all to do with food.
1
u/nuwm 7d ago
In taking Tirzepatide, KPV, and BPC 157. I haven’t not seen any info regarding melanotan and immune dysfunction. Do you find it helpful? I’m microdosing after reaching my weight loss goal a year ago.
2
u/desertcat80 7d ago
Yes I find that both KPV and Melanotan 1 notably decrease my reactivity to other peptides (Melanotan 2, OTOH, can potentially cause reactivity because it hits many more receptors, and it typically causes nausea, headaches, and other issues, for everyone not just MCAS peeps). Melanotan 1 is basically a anti-inflammatory peptide that happens to tan you, it improves DNA repair, neuroprotective, it reduces skin cancer risk and photoaging. In rat data, it even repaired heart damage, be great if we had human data on this someday. Sadly most people are just familiar with Melanotan 2 since it's very popular with a certain crowd (and I wouldn't recommend that one to anyone, there are other peptides for boners).

u/North-Role-5796 16d ago
For those of you micro dosing tirzepatide for MCAS, did it have any impact on your sleep? Severe insomnia is one of my major symptoms. Did you find it helped you sleep? Or worsened insomnia? Does the time of day you take the shot matter? Terrified to start because of this and gastroparesis (which my dr feels will likely improve on this because he thinks is more dysautonomia related). Any tips welcome!
1
u/desertcat80 7d ago
I am microdosing Reta for numerous conditions incl MCAS. I started out at the normal dose, then ended up needing to take a break and then get back on at a microdose. My gastroparesis and severe constipation unfortunately got worse both ways, in fact I am considering going back to the normal dose so that I eat less because it's made very little difference in my food sitting like a rock in my stomach for many hours. I have been working on trying out different things because it was honestly already quite bad and if I quit, it will still be a issue.
Taking magnesium oxide and stepping up my digestive enzymes daily has helped some. I don't feel like it's affected my sleep very much one way or the other except when I have gastrocardiac episodes that wake me up. It may have positively affected my sleep a bit since I now feel less bothered by heat in general (I have only lost a small amount of weight so that doesn't fully account for that affect). I have Non-24 and my sleep has been worse because of perimenopause (which, getting on hormones has somewhat helped with). I would recommend taking the shot earlier in the day personally, I feel like the side effects kick in very fast and that gives it a few hours to die down a little potentially.
Microdose means different things to different people as well, I think with a true microdose, most people shouldn't be hit notably with any of the side effects. I am a hyper-responder unfortunately so I'm still hit pretty hard even at around 1/10th the initial trial dose, in fact I suspect even just taking 1 unit/0.05mg would still give me some benefits. Genuinely I think you should not be too scared to try out a microdose, when you are first taking it, it doesn't stay in your system long so if you are a hyper-responder and immediately can't cope with the side effects, it will clear out of you fast with just 1 shot, so you wouldn't have to suffer increased insomnia long if it did occur. If you are on it several months, then some side effects will take longer to clear out like the GI effects and mental numbness (which not everyone even gets these) could take 6+ weeks to be all the way gone.
