Don’t ever apologize for making a long video . I would rather get all the information than cut it short. Those who think it is long they can always turn it off. Thank you for your time and info. Keep the good work on helping us with diabetes!
So it's fine that I take my Mounjaro in the mornings thanks. I was hospitalized back in October diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. At the time of being hospitalized my blood sugar was almost 500. As of today my blood sugar has been consistently in the 85 to 110 range for the past 4 months. I just want to share with other visitors the only changes I have made to my diet. I know it might not work for everyone but some people may benefit from my changes. The first change I did was stopped drinking Soda. My drinks of choice now are 1 cup of Chocolate Milk a day and Gatorade Zero the rest of the day. The second thing I did was stop eating TV dinners. My third change was I started walking on a treadmill twice a day (started out at 30 minutes each session then progressed to 1 hour each session). The final change I made was to stop stressing out over stuff I can't control. My A1c started out over 11 last check up it was a 5.7. Hope my list is helpful to some others good luck everyone.
I think you're doing great and thanks for shearing. I just started 4 weeks ago on Mounjaro as we couldn't get Ozempic 2 mg. I figure I'll take it for another 4 weeks and then have dosage increased to 5.0 mg. Seen my Dr. in 2 days.
I have found Gatorade zero still elevated my glucose. I walk after each meal. This lowers the spikes. I also never eat naked carbs. These things are helping me some. Thanks for sharing your tips.
I also take mines Thursday night. This works for me too. My side effects are minimal. Right now the pharmacy has some supply problem I just hope I get my prescription on time. So many people are on it. It was recommended by two of my doctors to try this and behavioral health. We will see what the results are. Good luck everyone. To good health 🍷
My husband is on Mounjaro, he complained about back pain and had kidney stones before, but glad that you mentioned the side effects. Thank you so much.
I honestly don't think your videos are long. I enjoy and learn so much from you. Those ppl who say you take to long must not be serious about their health. If they are complaining. I will watch your videos it doesn't matter long or short. Your videos are very helpful to me and many more ppl. There's alot of us on here that need your expertise knowledge to help us live longer for our families. And we all appreciate you so much more than you will ever know. You are a huge blessing to us 🙏 answered prayer of us. Continue with your long videos those who don't like it they don't have to watch it .Thank you again for everything. God bless and keep you 🙏.
@@SugarMDs Your welcome Dr. About 2 months ago I was switched to Ozempic 2 mg. I started the first four weeks and all of a sudden my pharmacy told me the 2 mg. dosage was not available so at my request my Dr. prescribed Mounjaro 2.5 mg. I'm having an appointment with her in two days. I think after 8 weeks I should increase Mounjaro to 5.0 mg. and take again for 8 weeks and see how it works. It might require lab work.-
I prefer Trulicity dose Saturday evening before bed. I also take out of refrigerator and sit at room temperature for about 30 mins to an hour before injection.
@@skyeblue5669 I've lost a few pounds howevery A1c did lower from 5.7 to 4.9. I believe other contributing factors have helped me e.g added healthy eating (protein, fiber, good fat with every meal) intermittent fasting (16/8) plus strength and low impact exercises 3 xs per week (30 minutes).
You don't have to ever keep it short when you are giving us such great information! I appreciate this channel and look forward to hearing your expert advice whenever you post. Thank you!
Dr.ignore those you tubers who tell you to keep it short. The complainers stating that should just get off your channel. Dr. keeper doing what you are doing by bringing us medical info we need.
Ozempic: Be wary of the days following the transition from 0.25 to 0.5 mg or 1 to 2 mg. About 48 hours after the first day (Friday night) of increased dosage I had G.I. problems severe enough to almost needing a day off of work. Make sure you have 2 to 3 days off from any important project or work before raising the Ozempic dosage!
In about 2 weeks, I'm highering my dosage to 0.5 mg. I already have back pains. I'm physically disabled from a work accident that happened years ago. So I assume I won't notice the difference? I just hope I don't have more back pain. To prevent getting nausea or stomach aches after taking a shot, just sit about 1/2 hour doing nothing. If you're walking or doing the littlest things, it can cause an upset stomach. So wait it out for the medication to go through your body.
I had to take off two days of work when I increased my Trulicity to 3mg. The first day I was mostly just tired, but day 2 (and for the rest of that week) I felt like I had the flu. It was horrible, but I got through it. No vomiting, just felt blah.
I’m pre diabetic for 13 years now, taking Metformin.Last month I asked my doctor if I can switch to Ozempic so I can lose weight as well. I started at 0.25 mg, my question is when will I increase the dosage? I know I can ask my doctor this week but I want to hear from you too. Thank you for your service!
The thing with any of these meds is for your doctor to monitor your kidneys, thyroid, and various factors. I been on Trulicity for almost a year. It works well with lowering my blood sugar, decreasing cravings, and weight loss. I also take several vitamins
My daughter found someone taking Mounjaro who suggested taking it a night, which she suggested would help get through some of the nausea. I like the idea of taking them on a weekend.

I’m new doing this. Took my 2nd shot tirzepitide compound. Oh them 12-18 hours after my shots I’m sooooo nauseated! Yuck. It feels like similar to morning sickness waves and small headache. But right away my morning blood sugars are in the 80s and 90s! So I’m thrilled. No more over 100 since I started. No more anxiety attacks. Like right away. I sometimes have to make myself eat especially the couple days afterwards since not much of an appetite. But the exhaustion is beyond real. I’m so exhausted and kinda having sleep issues the 1st week. I hope this gets better then next few weeks cuz I can’t hang really tbh. I’ve nvr been in a prescription actual drug before either so it’s been rough for me. Pray for me

My favourite is having a good meal on friday night (not too heavy), chill, go to sleep early and then wake up well for the weekend. I also feel like it helps with my weekend "free eating" mentality
Thank you for the information. I take tulicity and ever since I've bee on it, my back hurts on the right side fro about the shoulder blades to my hips.
It just been a month on ozempic at 0.25mg and one day last week, i was seeing little black spots. It was scary and planning to talk to my diabetic nurse.

I was taking trulicity but then my gall bladder started to have issues. I had been taking it for 3 years. What do you think about Rybelsus or do you think there is something better,please?😊
I’m currently on Metformin 500mg and Jardiance 25mg as well as Crestor 10mg. I’m 5’10 180lbs. If I was to move to a once weekly injectable would it likely replace both Jardiance and Metformin? If not, which would it likely replace? This would still leave me taking a daily pill. Which of the injectables do you think does the best for weight loss/control? Which iyo has the least side effects?
I am a type 2 diabetic. I have been on metformin 500mg and a statin for several years. 3 months ago I was prescribed Mounjaro due to blood sugar being high and i am obese. My doctor said I would remain on both meds plus mounjaro.

Can you cover the actual Surmount Trials and how slow but steady isn’t always going to max out wt Loss benefits… most importantly- how wgt loss flat lines around 45/50 week mark
IMO the best DAY to take it is thursday or friday because my food cravings are the worst during the weekend so I want the strongest effect days to land on the weekend. I don't get nausea or anything from it though, otherwise maybe I wouldn't want to ruin my weekend feeling sick.
I always start a new medication on a Friday. That way if I do get sick it ruins my weekend and nothing else. I've been using Ozempic since August with no issues but not a whole lot of weight loss either.
In addition to being diabetic, I have Fibro. Is there anything I need to know about Ozempic in relation to my illness? Also, what about taking Arthritis strength Tylenol, Tylenol PM, and/or 800 mg ibuprofen with Ozempic?
Can you cover the actual Surmount Trials and how slow but steady isn’t always going to max out wt Loss benefits… most importantly- how wgt loss flat lines around 45/50 week mark
Yes, it's often recommended to let Mounjaro come to room temperature before administering it, as this can reduce discomfort during injection. Typically, allowing the medication to sit out for about 30 minutes before use can make a difference. However, always check the medication guidelines or consult with your healthcare provider for specific instructions!

I seriously wanted Ozempic because FDA Approves Heart Protective Benefits of Ozempic and Confirms Safety of Rybelsus, however for me 2-3 hrs after injection it induced A-fib just curious as to why
I stopped my lower dose of trulicity after the first 3 months, no symptoms. Because I had a knee replacement and was told no diets etc because I needed my nutrition to help heal from surgery. After the 6 weeks from surgery I went to high dose. Did I really mess up? First week taken, so far so good.
I was on mounjaro .5 for 8 weeks but now my insurance copay is to high so I’m on ozempic for a week now .50 tomorrow I will take my next dose but the last 2 days my Blood sugar is going up and I’m eating exactly what I did with mounjaro. Any idea why that would happen? I do t know what the difference between the 2 drugs is although I haven’t had any side effects so far on ozempic compared to the ones on mounjaro
I took Mounjaro for 3 months. I lost 40 pounds but halfway through when I went to 5 mg I started to get gout in my ankle every week after injecting myself. I could barely walk and was not eating red meat or seafood. This medication definately causes gout in your joints
@iloveTRUMP, it's best to stick to your doctor's prescription. Every four days is practically doubling your weekly dose. Changing your dose or frequency could affect your blood sugar control. But please consult your doctor if you're considering any changes.
3 times of Reclimet really keeps me hungry all day & night. Before reclimet i was on intermittent fasting, eating food 1s a day and fruit or vegetable salad 1s a day. But now 3 full stomach meals aren't enough. Im literally on a cry for help situation. I started on ONLY millet diet. No rice no wheat.

I am a type 2 diabetic. I have been on metformin 500mg and a statin for several years. 3 months ago I was prescribed Mounjaro due to blood sugar being high and i am obese. My doctor said I would remain on both meds plus mounjaro.
Very informative. Do you think it's safe to start ozempic if you have some protein in your urine?
Thanks

Can you cover the actual Surmount Trials and how slow but steady isn’t always going to max out wt Loss benefits… most importantly- how wgt loss flat lines around 45/50 week mark
I’m elderly and live alone should I worry about any effects ? Should I take it while my caregiver is here? I’m starting mounjaro soon.
Thank you doctor.
Most welcome!
Good info thank you.
IMO the best DAY to take it is thursday or friday because my food cravings are the worst during the weekend so I want the strongest effect days to land on the weekend. I don't get nausea or anything from it though, otherwise maybe I wouldn't want to ruin my weekend feeling sick.
Love your honesty.
I always start a new medication on a Friday. That way if I do get sick it ruins my weekend and nothing else. I've been using Ozempic since August with no issues but not a whole lot of weight loss either.
@terryl.cooper Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm hoping for your health improvement. 😊
I kept vomiting, I did 2 weeks and it is safe to say that Trulicity is not for me.
In addition to being diabetic, I have Fibro. Is there anything I need to know about Ozempic in relation to my illness? Also, what about taking Arthritis strength Tylenol, Tylenol PM, and/or 800 mg ibuprofen with Ozempic?

I take ozempic. The only thing that I've noticed is . When I get up sometimes...I get so dizzy..
I'm on it for weight loss. Is this causing it
Yep low blood sugar causes this. Please have your fruits and water
Is it required to let your Mounjaro come to room temp before taking?
Yes, it's often recommended to let Mounjaro come to room temperature before administering it, as this can reduce discomfort during injection. Typically, allowing the medication to sit out for about 30 minutes before use can make a difference. However, always check the medication guidelines or consult with your healthcare provider for specific instructions!
I am prescribed metformin 1000mg twice a day. Do I have to continue taking metformin?
@captainhemmingsworth448, always consult with your healthcare provider about any changes to your medication regimen. Stay healthy!
Great video don't care if you have a long video ❤

I seriously wanted Ozempic because FDA Approves Heart Protective Benefits of Ozempic and Confirms Safety of Rybelsus, however for me 2-3 hrs after injection it induced A-fib just curious as to why
It is a known side effect actually. Pulse rate also goes up almost in everyone.
@@SugarMDs started on victoza so far so good.
I had to stop ozempic because of heart palpitations after 1.5 years on the stuff.
How did the palpitations / afib ho away?
I had heart palpitations after being on Ozempic for 4 months
I just started on the trulicity. How long does it take to work?
I stopped my lower dose of trulicity after the first 3 months, no symptoms. Because I had a knee replacement and was told no diets etc because I needed my nutrition to help heal from surgery. After the 6 weeks from surgery I went to high dose. Did I really mess up? First week taken, so far so good.
I was on mounjaro .5 for 8 weeks but now my insurance copay is to high so I’m on ozempic for a week now .50 tomorrow I will take my next dose but the last 2 days my Blood sugar is going up and I’m eating exactly what I did with mounjaro. Any idea why that would happen? I do t know what the difference between the 2 drugs is although I haven’t had any side effects so far on ozempic compared to the ones on mounjaro
I take mine Friday night as I get a weird taste/feel in my mouth. I also feel it stops me binge eating over fri night/the weekend
I took Mounjaro for 3 months. I lost 40 pounds but halfway through when I went to 5 mg I started to get gout in my ankle every week after injecting myself. I could barely walk and was not eating red meat or seafood. This medication definately causes gout in your joints
Everybody responds differently to medicines…..never had any side effects and have been on MJ for 9 months.
Thank you
Welcome. Stay engaged with our channel and community!
Oh wow, now I know why Wednesdays are always not nice for me....i take sunday or monday....48 hrs later....yowza
Can a person switch from trulicity to mounjaro and if so, is there a waiting time?
Can I take Mounjaro and my Methotrexate at the same time?
I am having hair lose suddenly since I started Ozempic. What should I do or is it normal.
Have your thyroid checked.
Eat more protein and b12 or B multivitamin
Doc what are your thoughts on splitting up your 1mg or 2mg dose during the week?
When does it start working been on it since 5 weeks
What happens if a type 2 take metformin, semaglutide and dapaglifozin? 5.0 A1C?
Should it be at the same time everytime
I can't seem to get it here in Massachusetts it says it's been canceled I don't know why
I take Trulicity and I take it on the weekend. Saturdays when I don't have to do anything.
Hey doc, are you also Medicosis?
I take mines Friday nights in case of side effects..
Any feedback regarding Victoza?
I been on this medication for most a week and gained 3 pounds. And I wasn't even eating and constipation. I'm so very 😡 upset
How about now
I take TRULICITY once a week..
Thanks for the insight, I almost made myself throw away my mattress.
I really want to see data that shows the advanced glucose support supplement product actually works
Can I take my next dose of mounjaro one day early from the usual day? I take once a week but I wanted to change days
Hi @yeseniasoria7869, it should be okay to adjust your schedule like that, but I recommend double checking with your healthcare provider! Take care!
thoughts about using trulicity in Cushings Disease?
Can you explain physicians or doctor offering their own compound mix?
I take it at night after some good amount of protein.
Friday after work
What if I take mounjaro every 4 days? What would happen?
@iloveTRUMP, it's best to stick to your doctor's prescription. Every four days is practically doubling your weekly dose. Changing your dose or frequency could affect your blood sugar control. But please consult your doctor if you're considering any changes.
What is the therapeutic dose for ozempic? Thank you!
It ranges from 0.25 to 2 mg per week for diabetes. Higher for weight loss.
I take mine on Saturday after a full breakfast, because I am retired and I am in the house on weekends
Hi Doc which diabetic meds can help lose weight? Thank you
3 times of Reclimet really keeps me hungry all day & night. Before reclimet i was on intermittent fasting, eating food 1s a day and fruit or vegetable salad 1s a day. But now 3 full stomach meals aren't enough. Im literally on a cry for help situation. I started on ONLY millet diet. No rice no wheat.
