reflux got worse for three weeks then better than baseline

Side Effects Clean Column ×3

reflux got worse for three weeks then better than baseline — a position I have arrived at slowly and would like tested.

Mine settled at week 34 and has not come back since, across two more steps.

Reflux was the one that got me. Stopped eating in the three hours before bed and it went from nightly to almost never.

nausea for the first eight days after each step, then nothing, every single time. Predictable enough that I started planning my week around it.

Ask me anything specific. Anything general I will probably get wrong.

The effect on gastric emptying is most pronounced early and attenuates with continued dosing, which is the mechanism behind the "it settles at a stable dose" pattern the whole board reports.

Pushback: you changed the dose, the meal timing and the training in the same fortnight, so the attribution is guesswork.

Yes — the day-two-to-day-four window is so consistent across this board that it is almost diagnostic.

Agreed on writing it down. I could not see the pattern until I had six weeks of it on one page.

What is intake actually looking like — fibre and water especially?

Correction: that is a known effect of reduced intake rather than a direct drug effect. The distinction matters because the fix is different.

The fatigue turned out to be that I was eating about a third of what I thought I was. Tracked it for a week and the mystery evaporated.

hair shedding follows the weight loss, not the drug, and it stops

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.
