didn't take sema for my heart.

didn't take sema for my heart. might've been the best thing I ever did for it anyway. 17,000 people, no diabetes, 20% fewer heart attacks and strokes and it held whether or not you lost much weight, so it's not just the scale doing the work. my dad died at 61 of a heart attack. I take mine and I think about him. that's the whole confession.

Everyone told me GLP-1s make you sluggish and sick. Reta did the opposite. Wired me. 2am, eyes open, heart going, not anxious exactly just switched on with nowhere to put it. It's not the sedating misery people describe with sema. It's a stimulant wearing a weight-loss drug's clothes. Nobody sleeps and nobody says so.

nausea. vomiting. constipation. burping I won't get into. 65% of people on sema get some kind of gut disaster and I got the full menu. lost the weight though. spent month one on the bathroom floor earning it.

nobody warned me my skin would feel like it was on fire. pins and needles, then a burning nobody could see. I thought I was having a stroke. turns out on the top dose it happens to about 1 in 5 people, it's the glucagon part of reta doing something to your nerves, and it's the one side effect tirz and sema don't give you. I was in the 20%. I dropped the dose and it faded. wish the people posting their weight loss numbers mentioned this part even once.
