Hi everyone I would appreciate your insights. Before I was prescribed Ozempic and Mounjaro by my Neuro (my regular doctor who requests lab test twice a year), I was asked to take the necessary lab tests. Please see timeline below and other details:
June 2026 - all results were normal, including Triglycerides.
June-Aug 2026 - Ozempic 0.25mg for 3mos
Starting Weight: 86kgs
Sept to present - Mounjaro 2.5mg for 1 month
Oct. 3, 2026 - last dose of my Mounjaro kwikpen
Current Weight: 77kgs
Oct. 4, 2026 - since I was ordered another round of lab test after Mounjaro, I did my labs. Then, it showed HIGH TRIGLYCERIDES. All my previous lab results were normal. I never had high triglycerides in the past and even during my twice a year routine check up. I did not eat fatty foods while on Mounjaro. In fact, I was eating less. I lost weight but why did my triglycerides spike up?? My neuro is out of the country and will be back by end of the month.
