Weight loss injections

Hi, I'm also frustrated with putting on weight, which seems to go on in days and take months to lose. My GP did offer to see the nutritionist for support though I have not done that yet. I don't think I'd be happy to consider injections personally, but feeling good about yourself is so very important so I hope you get the support you need from your GP. Best wishes 

Hi AJM  I am frustrated about my weight as well.  Had cancer 12 years ago and went up to size 18.  Joined weight watchers and lost some of it.  Went down to about a 14.  Now cancer has come back and weight is creeping up again with treatment.  I dont think I would consider the injections because of more chemicals to the body.  I think your oncologist would know if it was safe or not.  Good luck.

Hi AJM

I lost weight with the injections Monjoueno. I was told to stop them when I started chemotherapy.  Ihave gained 13 lb since stopping. Now gabapentin is putting more on .

Take care Pam  

I had a similar worry and chatted with my oncologist first—they were helpful in checking if anything could react badly with my meds. I’ve also been trying to focus on feeling good in other ways, like treating myself to small things; recently I looked into the best botox treatments in miami to feel a bit more like myself again, and it actually lifted my spirits quite a bit.

I've done Four weeks on 2.5mg and lost 5 kg.

I didn't have any side effects I'm having a two week break now because of surgery.

Starting again when I feel ready on lowest dose again only 6 kg to go.

Love AJ
