The previous sounds like a chicken shit answer. The weight loss alone will do wonders for your MS complications. The list is long and the list with MS is even longer. I wish you the best stay tough

That's a really important question to bring up, especially since managing overall health with MS can feel like juggling a lot at once!
Semaglutide (the medication in Ozempic/Wegovy injections) is not something covered in MS-specific guidelines, and there's no established guidance on its use specifically for people with MS.

Semaglutide (the medication in Ozempic/Wegovy injections) is not something covered in MS-specific guidelines, and there's no established guidance on its use specifically for people with MS.
The most important step is to speak with both your neurologist and your prescribing doctor before starting semaglutide. Here's why this matters:
- Some MS disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) can interact with other medications
- Any new injection medication should be reviewed alongside your current MS treatment plan
- Your neurologist can help assess whether it's safe given your specific MS history and current medications
At 60, with an established MS diagnosis, your care team is best placed to weigh the benefits and any potential risks for your individual situation. Please don't start it without checking with them first — your MS management should always be part of that conversation.
