Summary
A Reddit user said semaglutide sharply reduced their inflammation in the first week, with inflammation returning about two weeks after they stopped it for insurance or shortages. They said propranolol 10 mg twice daily for POTS helped a great deal, levelling out their heart rate variability and easing their anxiety.
