Anyone having a bunch of side effects on 6MP. I have been on it for 10 months now. I'm having side effects such as: urinating more than usual, hungry a lot of the time, stomach feels empty 3 hours after a meal, nausea and feel pretty fragile when exercising - like I can't push myself as I used to be able to.

I have a few annoying side effects, peeing more often is one of them. I wake up in the night to pee sometimes... I also have less energy than I used to and I never had much. Some days I feel like the walking dead.

What dose are you on? My side effects pretty much went away after 3 months except for slight headaches and some fatigue.

100mgs is a relatively high dose but it's not unheard of. If it continues to be bothersome, maybe you should call your doctor and see if you can lower the dose. Are you still in remission? If so, you may not need this high of a dose.
