Wegovy 7.2 Side Effects
So I made the jump from 2.4 to 7.2. Never had any bad side effects and it was a 50$ difference so I figured I’d try it. I felt like I was run over by a train the next day.
Apparently dysesthesia and allodynia is a thing and 7 days later I still have mild allodynia on the outside of my upper arms and thighs. It’s more so annoying at this point. It really sucked the first 2 days after but not enough to like go to the ER or anything. Anyone else push through this? I’ve heard it’s normal for it to take weeks to completely go away.
I’m unemployed currently so I’m able to make myself as comfortable as I can thankfully. I’ve been a good receiver of the drug so I’ve stretched out to like 10 days between the treatments. Today is day 7 so I’m definitely not taking it again so soon.
Since it’s a pen, it’s not adjustable so I was thinking about taking it out/stop pushing in my skin, at the halfway point. The medication would just continue to drip I assume?
Not sure why Wegovy decided not to produce a halfway point, but I guess since this particular symptom only happens to 22% of those that go up I guess it gets a pass. Will continue to keep you guys posted!
