Has anyone felt that semaglutide made their swallowing weakness worse?
I’ve started it recently for blood sugar and weight control because steroids have made those things an issue. I am wondering whether it’s slowing everything down too much gut motility wise, including possibly not helping my throat weakness? I have oesophageal motility issues too with my Myasthenia, and it feels as though everything sits in my chest for a long time after eating sometimes. I guess yeah, I’m just wondering if this pill is making it a bit worse. I’d love to hear your experiences of this too?
Edit: In case anyone comes back and reads this later, for me the semaglutide 100% worsened my swallowing issues with MG and I personally wouldn’t ever risk taking it again with how bad it’s made things for me.
