Ive been on glp-1 for diabetes for several years.
I dont tolerate them well and they make me feel like hell, but my diabetes is managed.
I am so sick all the time, my gut is just genuinely not happy. And all this time ive been trying to do all the things the doctor and internet say to do to overcome it as a side effect of my glp-1.
Ive been on my current dose, for almost 2 years now. Its not a super high dose. But the gi problems have not improved.
I feel bloated and nauseous most of the time.
I am very gassy and gas x or beano do nothing to help.
I have severe diarrhea literally all the time.
Im eating 1500 calories a day, 100+ g of protein. The doctor said it was caused by not enough fiber so I increased fiber and stuck to the plan for nearly 6 months. The fiber seemed to make it way worse so I did stop.
I take pre biotics, probiotics, digestive enzymes... I feel like ive literally tried aleverything and nothing has improved at all.
I'm open to what questions and listen to advice I want my life back.
Im tired all the time, my stomach aches all the time. The brain fog is just unbearable. My job is suffering, my marriage is suffering, I just want to fix it but nothing ive tried works
