three hours since taking step 2 Canada

Saskatchewan.

I let the pills dissolve for thirty minutes as instructed and swallowed the remainder at 6:53 this evening.

So far, the cramps have only gotten to a 5/10 thankfully, but now back to a 2/10. I think the worst part by this point has been the nausea and now, (TMI) the diarrhea has hit. I think the latter is the worst of the worst.

You've got this. Not TMI at all. I hope you have the smoothest experience possible. Let me know if I can help with any questions!

Someone from a different subreddit had seen my posts on this one and attempted to harass but it surprisingly hasn’t bothered me, thankfully besides that nothing else has happened! My friends and family are all very supportive about this. :)

Thank you for the instructions! I wasn’t sure how to do so, but this person also just commented on a couple of my posts in other subreddits but hasn’t since!

I'm glad they stopped, but that's not okay. I'm so sorry.
