Appendicitis (rare)
Users on Reddit have shared limited experiences regarding appendicitis while on GLP-1 medication. One user with lupus, who was taking semaglutide and Saphnelo (an immunosuppressant), reported experiencing appendicitis. They stated, "Appendicitis is possible with semaglutide, but the Saphnelo lowering the immune system made me septic much quicker than would be normal. "[1] This user also mentioned they were "back on [semaglutide] and doing great for three months" after the incident and that their "labs look fabulous since I’ve been on and lost 37 pounds!! "[1] Another user in the same thread acknowledged the scariness of appendicitis, especially in the context of immunosuppression. [2]
