I have been taking Semaglutide for going on 5 months now. I have lost 24 pounds and my inflammation is gone. I have SLE Lupus and arthritis and prior to taking the medication, I had a lot of pain in my hands and knees. I’m sure losing the weight made a big difference, but I believe that the drug has truly helped with the inflammation. One day I just realized that my hands and knees don’t hurt anymore. Taking the med has been good for me.

Thank you for sharing your experience!!!!!

I have been taking Zepbound for one month. I have osteoarthritis. I noticed within a week that my joint pain had decreased. At first I thought it was a coincidence. Then, I had to go 2 weeks without Zepbound due to the savings card not working. (Saves me over $500) Within a few days the pain was back. Fortunately, last Friday the savings coupon was working and I was able to get Zepbound. Within 4 days of the injection, my pain started to diminish. I will keep taking the medication for the pain relief even more than the weight loss benefits.

Ozempic will paralyze your stomach. Do not use it.

Tucker Carlson interviewed a doctor who explained how horrible this class of drugs were as far as side effects and permanent damage. I find it easier to just stay keto/carnivore to lower inflammation, lose weight, etc. I have no problem fasting 2 days or more a week because of the fat adaptation. I won't be touching this class of drug. But I appreciate the information.

I have Paget's disease of the bone and osteopenia, extreme joint pain and inflamation. I was put on Plaquenil for almost a year and I gained alot of weight also. Would you recommend one of those drugs for pain relief?

I'm sorry to hear about your health struggles. It's important to consult with your healthcare provider to find the best pain relief option for your specific condition.

I have rheumatoid arthritis and Sjogren’s disease. When my Rheumatologist was trying to get my RA under control, every drug we tried, I had adverse reactions to all of them. We tried some of the non-biologics/non-steroidal and then several of the biologics (of course the steroids did work the best and I did not react to that treatment). Some of the reactions were allergic reactions and some were called adverse reactions but not an allergic reaction. So my question is, are the medications you discuss in this video radically different from the other RA treatments? I would like to try something to take away the inflammation as that is my biggest enemy today and the Sjogren’s makes that worse. But my experience with the other meds has me afraid (the worst allergic reaction I had was I got medication induced lupus. It took a long time to go away because the medication was injected and I can’t recall which med caused that one. Do you think these drugs are safer? Thank you Cate Canada
