Hello Milton, and list,

I appreciate your response.

However, no I am definitely not wanting anyone to suggest I stop taking any
of my medications. If my post came across in this way, that is not at all
what I was intending.

I just was interested to know if anyone else taking Ozempic, had ever had
similar experiences. And, I wanted to share my experiences with it.

I most definitely am planning to contact my specialist. I just am 
waiting until after the holiday, because I know they aren't in. But as 
soon as they are back, you better believe I will be reaching out to her.

Thank you for your concern.

Terri
