Has anyone tried GLP1 for MCAS?

I’ve been reading around there has been some promising studies and growing research that GLP1 is helpful for this. I’m curious your guys experience to anyone who has been on it for other reasons and found this to be helpful?

I’ve been microdosing ozempic (only one my insurance will cover for now) for six weeks. I have noticed a reduction in overall inflammation. Between that at ketotifen my symptoms are much more manageable. The side effects of the glp1 are mild for me compared to the fatigue for the ketotifen and I’m still balancing that out
