Hopefully, as it's been investigated before earlier in the year, with no further actions being taken, as I have a gastroscopy done every 6 months.

No, was suppose to take my fourth dose on Saturday.

My GP wasn't very helpful, saying that they would get in touch with gastroenterology to see what could be causing my ongoing diarrhea, in the meantime I've got to provide some stool samples and have more bloods done. So far I've been having more healthier foods with eating salads and plain...

I've been eating mostly chicken that's been roasted. Had a small side plate of a roast dinner on Sunday, which included chicken, carrot/swede mash without butter and gravy. For Tuesday, I had a small chicken fillet and a few peppers, onions, mushrooms in a Maggi bag, again on a small side plate...

I am going to speak to my gp on Monday about my situation as both myself and the diabetes nurse believe that my diarrhea could be due to an underlying condition as I've had it on and off continuously for the past few months. I have managed to eat some food without having the urge to go the...

I spoke to my diabetes nurse today and decided that I should continue on taking my 4th dose of 2.5mg and speak with my gp about the side effects again, since I'm on a combination of creon and mounjaro. Both medications have side effects of diarrhea, stomach pains and gas. The nurse had said...

Still not tolerating any kind of food at all. Had some plain cooked chicken pieces from a Sunday Roast and my stomach is still giving me diarrhoea. I've laid of diet coke and just drinking water or rehydration solutions. My blood sugars have been stable without the need for insulin, but I've...

I've also lost over a stone in 3 and a half weeks since starting it. I've gone from being 19 stone 2 pounds to now being 17 stone 12 pounds.

My doctor hasn't investigated any further into my digestive gut problems, but I have been to the hospital with them and apart from putting me on a drip of fluids for 2 hours and performing blood tests, which have all comeback positive, there are no further actions being taken by my doctor or the...

How long do the side effects of Mounjaro last? I've been on the starting dose 2.5 mg for 3 weeks now (3rd injection on Saturday) and I can't hold anything in. It just goes straight through my gut and ends up with being on the toilet for hours on end. My DN, GP, Pharmacist, Hospital Doctor all...

I was in another world of pain last night, followed by diarrhoea after having some scrambled eggs, bacon and chorizo. My blood sugar last night was 7.9, woke up this morning and is 25.2. I've also been contacted by the hospital that they have a endoscopy appointment for me tomorrow at 2pm and...

I had some chicken strips party food last night that I still had from Christmas and my blood sugar before I had it was 9.8, I also forgot to take my mealtime insulin. Woke up this morning and my blood sugar is 8.3. Tried to phone my gp for an appointment with the doctor about my gut pain and...

It's not the metformin that's causing it. I was off it for 2 weeks in November and still had it. My blood sugar reading before the meal was 8.5, then in the morning it was 24.7. Today though, the pain in my gut has been with me non stop since 2:30pm and I've taken 2 lots of Co-codamol with no...

I've been told to take Co-codamol for the pain by A&E. But I've just now had another episode of gut pain, followed by diarrhoea. All I've had today was some toast this morning, followed by a few slices of cheese in the afternoon.

I've been on Metformin for 11 years. Slow Release tablets since 2017. The squash that I have is the robinsons fruit creations, which have 0 or low sugar. I try to vary what i eat for dinner, but due to a limited budget it's not that great and normally consists of either a piece of meat with...

I've just had my evening meal 4 hours ago that's consisted off some scrambled eggs, diced chorizo and mozzarella with 2 glasses of squash and a can of diet coke. I'm not sure how or why my blood sugar has risen to the 20's. I'm just starting to get into the habit of regular testing after being...

Woke up literally shaking this morning, blood sugar was at 6.4. Phoned up my GP to get an appointment, where they've now sent me to go somewhere else to be seen and I've still got the pain in my gut, made worse now by having some breakfast.

Good news, finally back on Tresiba. Bad news, went up hospital yesterday again after vomiting, diarrhoea and stomach pains at work. The hospital still have no clue on what's causing it, even after some blood tests and a CT scan turned up empty. So they've sent me back home, still in pain with...

Blood sugar down to 7.1 at 10:30am, so I had a hash brown and a hot chicken wrap for breakfast at work, once the butty van came.

I've finally got a prescription of 150 testing strips after being taken up to A&E with hyperglycaemia and not being able to stay awake last Wednesday afternoon. I'm still experiencing high blood sugars of 27 this morning, but it's pointless asking for help at the hospital as by the time that...
