I used to think following instructions was enough. The pharmacy hands it over — nobody asks “what’s really happening?”.

Back then, I believed healthcare worked like clockwork. Doctors give you pills — you don’t question the process. It felt safe. Eventually, it didn’t feel right.
At some point, I couldn’t focus. I told myself “this is normal”. But my body was whispering something else. I searched forums. None of the leaflets explained it clearly.
I started seeing: your body isn’t a template. The reaction isn’t always immediate, but it’s real. Damage accumulates. And still we keep swallowing.
Now I don’t shrug things off. Not because I’m paranoid. I take health personally now. Not all doctors love that. This is survival, not stubbornness.
The lesson that stuck most, it would be rybelsus vs ozempic.
