@justme34 yes you got it right I just went over and looked at my pen. When I started, I also had severe reactions, but then it went away. It sounds like you have not read the leaflet information or spoken with your doctor which I recommend both. I also recommend that you call the pharmaceutical company. They have a helpline if you have questions after reading the literature. It is important to try different times of day. I started out in the morning, but I got severely nauseous and dizzy and so I went to the evening after dinner. I’m not that active after dinner so I just kind of settled in. I always make space around trying new medicines and it sounds like you had the classic side effects. I’m sure it will get better!

Hi @justme34, each click is 10 mcg. To test it, you can click thru to 8 clicks, then just twist it back to 0. Sometimes I lose count, but back it up to 0, and start counting clicks again. I got very sick for 2 days when I tried the full 8 clicks originally, so i restarted at 1 click for 2-3 days, then 2 clicks for 2-3 days, etc. I've been on it 11 months, but can't really get higher than 5 clicks, and my Dr said that's okay to stay at for now. I've had great results on it, so give your body time to adapt. Drink lots of liquid when you inject. I switched to afternoon injections so I don't have to get up to pee.
