My vision goes dark when I get up from laying down while on mounjaro
Hi,
I’ve been on mounjaro for 4 months now. I’ve lost 3 stones. I’m currently on 10mg, due to take another injection today. But the past week I’ve been feeling quite weird. While at work my head was feeling extremely heavy and I was feeling dizzy so I had to sit down. I ate an orange to try and give myself some energy in that moment. At first it made things feel worse but then i eventually got better after having my head down for about 10 minutes.
The past month every time I’m laying down in bed and then get up my vision goes dark and I can’t see. I have to close my eyes to regain focus. Chat GPT has said it could be ‘orthostatic hypotension’. Is this a common thing when taking mounjaro?
I have been eating properly. Even after I eat a balanced meal with carbs and protein I still feel like this. I’m planning on going to the GP next week I just wanted to know if anyone else has suffered from this. I’m usually pretty healthy. And honestly these experiences are making me scared to inject more mounjaro…
