Numbness after starting MK‑677 – is it normal?

I started MK‑677 25mg a few weeks ago, 10‑15 minutes after breakfast. Right after the first dose I felt a tingling in my fingertips that lingered for a half‑hour. It’s mild, not a sharp ache, more like a subtle electric buzz.

I then kept going and the next day the tingling showed up again in the same spots, a bit stronger after the meal. I’m still on my first month and I didn’t notice any swelling or redness at the injection sites – I only take thecess orally. I’ve read that the “numbness/tingling in hands” side effect is listed for the Superman stack, but I was wondering if that also applies to MK‑677 alone.

D. In pharmacology so I’m lookingMonitoring for the fasting glucose changes, but the tingling is the first odd thing. Anyone else see it, or does it go away with time? I’m not sure if it’s just a placebo feel‑thing or something I should be worried about.
