Funny, after semaglutide I developed moderate arthritis in my MTP(foot) joint.

I wonder if it was gout because it seemed to come on fast. They say semaglutide shouldn't cause gout but I'm not convinced. It has some very weird effects on my hydration. I drink a fair amount of water, but specifically at night I now have to urinate a dozen times throughout the night and wake up with my mouth almost dried shut.

I've lost 10% of my bodyweight(probably >1/3 muscle, sadly) which is great and it's taking the load off my joints, but man this foot thing is a bummer. I need to find a sports Dr because most foot docs seem to take the "just stop running/hiking and switch to biking/swimming" approach which doesn't work for me.
