I didn’t inject myself while on FaceTime, though I think that would have been an option. I started at 4, just felt a mild nausea and some dizziness (which passed fairly soon), and fatigue the next morning (have been doing injections early evening). I remembered reading it’s best to get up and get moving, which I did, and felt much better. The third day, I increased by one click to 5, where I stayed for 5 days (side effects seemed to fade after 5 days). Then increased to 6, where I think I stayed another 5 days (I think). When I increased to 7, I felt stronger side effects (gastrointestinal), but they also decreased over a week or two. I ended up stayed on that amount longer because I came down with a virus and wanted to feel good when I increased to 8, which I did last week. Felt very small difference from the 7 clicks after being at that dose nearly 3 weeks, I think. Holding steady at 8, and am grateful for that and for this forum. Remembering what others had written and the encouragement they offer has helped me a lot. Hope this isn’t too much detail. Nice to pass along some info and any encouragement when appropriate after receiving so much from others here.
