From Reta to Survo

[dogmom]

I have been on Reta for over a year. I had been on about 10mg. I am at essentially goal but still would like to lose 10lbs. If I lost weight I'd be happy but I'm not transitioning for weight loss.

I like Reta overall. However, my heart rate went up when I started taking it and it never went down to a normal level. I never felt bad. No doctors ever mentioned anything wrong either. But still I never had that on Tirz or Sema. So hear I go with experimenting with Survo to see how that does.

I started Survo at .6mg just to see how it feels. I think Survo goes up to 4.8mg. I don't really feel anything but I didn't expect to. Survo has GIP and Glucagon, which I have been on with Reta. I plan on taking 1.2mg next week.

I maybe wouldn’t jump up that fast but you do you

Yeah I'm still debating about doubling it. I may go up to .9mg instead. But in the trials the next step up from .6mg is 1.2mg. I just figured I'd be ok to ramp up fast since I've been on Reta for a year and I've been taking a higher dose of reta for months now.

I have not seen many people talk about Survo. So I'm not sure what side effects may be like.

I am on survo now too. I plan to just take it by itself (for a little while at least) to get familiar with it. Just increased the dose to 1 mg this morning.

The only side effect I may have experienced at lower doses like 0.3 mg was diarrhea, but that could have been from another GLP. So another reason I am trying survo by itself.
