Good afternoon!
I am on Rybelsus for Type 2 Diabetes. The medicine is to bring down the blood sugar (A1C) and since I was put on it last year it has done that very well. I started out at 3mg, then have been on 7 mg for quite a while. My A1C is at 7, down from 9.9. I also lost over 40 pounds. I still have a lot of weight to lose and have started to gain the weight I lost back as the medicine is not suppressing my appetite like it did in the beginning. I would also like to get my A1C down a little more so my doctor is increasing my dosage to 14mg. When I first started on the medicine, I had nausea and didn't care if I ate at all, but I made myself eat what I could and I made it through and slowly those side effects went away. Just curious if anyone here in on the 14mg and if so what their experiences were. Thanks!
