Anyone know how to get semiglutide or Ozempic or whatever [View all]

it is called. I had one doctor who said I had to come in every week and pay $75 for a shot and yet I see it advertised on the net where it is supposed to be much cheaper.

I am leery of these things. But then again some of the doctors I have seen around here should not even have medical degrees, in my opinion
