GLP-1 and pain issues

[teetee07]

Has anyone here taking Glp-1's noticed a reduction in chronic pain or any pain issues that they may be dealing with?

A lot of people experience this as a result of reduced inflammation.

Yes! Some of it may be less stress on joints due to weight loss but the reduction of inflammation has made a huge difference for me. I think at some point they will be able to get some people off pain meds. I wish it was more affordable and available to more people.

My wife has lupus with a lot of inflammation and pain, and she has been on tirz since May of 25'. It has made a huge difference in her quality of life, which is very noticeable. She was in pain all the time, her inflammation markers were through the roof, and since being on tirz, she has been able to exercise regularly, and her overall mood has been so much better. She recently did blood work, and her Rheumatologist told her to keep doing what she is doing.

Wow this is awesome news to hear. I have been dealing with some spinal pain due to a condition and I have noticed some days the pain isn't as massive as it usual. I thought it was my imagination at first but hearing you guys replies says a lot in regards to how tirz is helping in other ways

It helped a lot with joint pain. Haven't lost even 10lb yet, but feel much better.

I am taking Tirzepatide, plus a bit of reta to help maintain weight loss. I also have ulcerative colitis with residual abdominal pain and diarrhoea even in remission plus or minus ibs-d. I was previously taking semaglutide, and it or tirzepatide helped slow down my gut and reduced pain. Probably not as big an effect as losing half my body weight and eating a completely different diet, but it still made a significant difference.
The weight loss effects of GLP's help with arthritis, and the anti inflammatory effects help with quite a lot of other painful inflammation related problems. There is quite a lot of very solid science on this. Unfortunately most of the other available popular peptides have not had much or any human testing , so their use is much more experimental.
