Caveat: I've not been on GLP-1s.

Sounds quite a bit like when I started the probiotics I've been on for quite a few many years now: When I started these ones, I actually started feeling worse than before. Ultimately though, after IIRC about two weeks of feeling worse than before, things got better.

I started out being lethargic all the time (in hindsight: way, way too many years, I just didn't put 2+2 together on multiple symptoms!). Migraine headaches from certain foods as well as any amount of alcohol and even non-alcoholic beer for example, essentially anything that produces histamines (which certain foods as well as alcohol consumption does).

After the probiotics "fought and won the battle" against whatever was inhabiting my intestines before that, I felt totally fine. No more lethargy. Could eat all the histamine rich foods in the world (Roquefort, here I come again, you're soooo tasty! Maybe with a glass of red wine too) and be fine. Never looked back. Life is way more fun now.

I might want to get on GLP-1s to not like alcohol and too much Roquefort now, while still not being lethargic, lol!
