I have this issue with my stomach where it gets extremely bloated or inflamed. It doesn't seem like its from gas, more like just inflamed and swollen. It doesn't seem to matter what I eat or drink and my doctors have been worthless with this issue.

I started tirz 3 weeks ago. For 2-3 days after each dose, the inflammation is completely gone, my stomach is flat and feels great. Im hoping a higher dose makes it last longer. Has anyone else had this effect? Seems it causes bloating for a lot of people.

I mainly started taking tirz because I have a fatty liver and visceral fat. Im 6'2 205lbs so im not obese and just slightly overweight. Looking to get down to 185 and then start putting on muscle.

Im tirating up faster than recommend without any issues. 1st dose 2.5mg, 2nd 3.5mg, 3rd 4.5mg yesterday. Im going to take another 500mcg and then stay at 5mg for a few weeks. 5mg is supposed to be the starting therapeutic dose.
 
Tirz helped with my stomach issues as well. I added in KPV .5mg at about month 3 and all my stomach trouble was gone. Tirz/KPV will be lifelong for me. I am a different person now, I can be away from the house. Eat with friends without having to scope out the bathroom situation and I just feel overall well now. I hope it continues for you!

Great to hear about the benefits for your stomach, but in my opinion, you’re moving a bit too fast with the titration. Tirzepatide builds up in your system week after week. Even if you don't have side effects at 4.5mg right now, you'll feel the real peak of these doses in a few days strictly because of the accumulation effect. Staying at 5mg now for a few weeks is definitely the smartest move so you don't risk getting hit with side effects all of a sudden.
