Decent control with an A1c in the mid 7's.  A new to me primary doctor suggested Ozempic to reduce the amount or enable me to get off insulin.  Took the quarter dose for 4 weeks with mild side effects ..The half dose for 4 weeks with same minor side effects.  Full dose for 1 week and it HIT-THE-FAN.  All the mild side effects went off the chart along with my sugar levels. Stopped cold turkey.  Put the 5 pounds I lost back on in 4 days. Sugar off the chart. Now 3 months later I have swings from 70. to. 350.    Looking for a new Endo Doc.  anyone out there having a similar issue?   Ron K</p></blockquote><p></p>
