[QUOTE="finzi1966, post: 2463479, member: 548675"] I’m on metformin and dapaglifozin (same stuff as you) and started Ozempic about a month ago. I love it. Have lost about 7kg, dawn phenomenon almost eliminated, average BG according to Libre down from 7.5 to 6.1 (I know that doesn’t sound a big drop, but I’d been stuck at 7.5 for ages despite lowering carbs to <20mg per day. I’ve had no side effects (aside from weight loss and decreased hunger). The injection is *entirely* painless, I promise - nothing like doing a finger prick. The only thing is there is a *certain* amount of dexterity needed, not for giving the shot itself (that’s just pressing a big button at the top of the pen) but for attaching the needle to the pen (you have to peel the lid off the little needle pot, and then screw it onto the pen. Would you manage this?) [/QUOTE]
