Don't know if its worth of Admin consideration but with so many of us now being prescribed Mounjaro not only as a weight loss drug but mainly to assist and aid with our diabetes. Is it worth a section of its own? There are so many different questions that are arising from my Mounjaro journey just started a couple of weeks ago, but some don't fit into the weight loss section - some are Carbs and Cals - some are food & diet ideas, some are side effects and how you are doing on Mounjaro and some are just general chat. What you you all think

Mounjaro seperate section in forum ??

If you had a Mounjaro section, would you also need an insulin section, a Metformin section, a section for each of the different drugs.
And what about those of us who have a regime with multiple drugs plus diet and exercise.
We all have common things to deal with like shortage of medication and watching carbs and effect of stress, exercise, etc. on our diabetes.
And we don’t all need to lose weight.

People can usually come up with the relevant threads by using the search feature to direct them to the specific topic.

No. There’s enough sections without starting a metformin one, dapagliflozin one, both more common than mounjaro

There is already a weight loss jab section, so no need to have one just for Mounjaro.

Wow wasn’t expecting such an aggressive reaction. . FYI. I’m not taking it for weight loss it was prescribed by my Diabetes consultant due to many qualifying conditions l have. It’s not because I’m taking it purely for weight loss and paying for it as a vanity project

You can always start a thread in that group specifically for Mounjaro.

I think the thing is there are so many treatments for diabetes that separating them all out would be a nightmare, and likely just as tricky to navigate.
The forum search function isn't too bad, but just ask your questions and go from there. Folks will do their best to respond.

Thanks for the suggestion @PatosDa
In general we try to have as few sections as possible, so that there are fewer places to go looking for threads.
The suggestion of starting a general Mounjaro thread for others to contribute to is something that’s happened elsewhere, and been successful (eg the thread for users of a specific insulin pump, the MM780, in the ‘pumping and technology’ section 🙂
