For Type 2 Diabetes "My A1C and glucose levels are great. I am not on insulin. Side effects are rotten. Nausea, GERD, constipation/diarrhea, headache, stomach pain, decreased appetite every shot lessens over the week. Had this with Ozempic and Trulicity too, but not as severe. I have seen no weight loss benefit despite a decent diet and moderate exercise 3-5 times per week. Other side effects I’m not sure are related: feeling of lump in throat, slight face rash, occasional blurred vision, tingling in hands."

For Type 2 Diabetes "I have been injecting this medication for more than a year now (0.5 mg) since Feb. 2024, and so far, it has been good. Considering the loss of appetite and occasional stomachaches. My A1C back in April was 8.1, which to some people is still high, but for me, it is quite a drop from 10.6 from the previous test back in Nov. of last year. However, last Saturday, I started having blurry vision, so I got a little worried and started checking reviews. I did see that this is a side effect for other people also, so I will wait if it at least gets better and goes away. If it doesn't, then I guess I have to further discuss it with my doctor."

For Type 2 Diabetes "I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in May 2025. My doctor prescribed Mounjaro as I also was a bit overweight with high BP. Started at 2.5 mg. Initial reaction was stomach pain and nausea that subsided within the first couple of weeks. I also had some constipation. After a month, my doc increased me to 5 mg. Stomach pain came back but not as bad, then subsided by month 2. Weight loss at 12 weeks was 20 lbs. BP was lowered. Overall I was feeling well, eating better, feeling less pain, even from my fibromyalgia. Started my fourth month on Mounjaro (3rd month at 5 mg) and within a day I felt very off balance, blurry vision in my right eye, headache on right side. Mid of month 3 I had some major right upper back pain and she ordered ultrasounds. Now a CT scan of my head. Waiting results."
