Welcome to the forums @Joanne Riley

Hopefully you'll get some more ozempic feedback soon but I just wondered whether you've had a chance to speak to your GP about this?

And for what it's worth, this article here says it can take up to 5 weeks for ozempic to fully clear from your system

This is very common w/ pt's using these types of meds. Some it's only temporary, others have to stop the drug bc it doesn't get better. Was your dose started low and slowly increased?

I’m glad I’m not the only one, Friday this week is my first 0.5 dose and I am dreading it. Everything I eat whatever it is makes me feel the same, horrendous bloating / gas / stomach pain. I’m really not sure if I want to continue with it tbh. I have basically stopped eating now to control the side effects had nothing more than a portion of soup every day and that’s it For the last 3 weeks.
