Abstract

A 49-year-old woman developed new-onset type 1 diabetes after initiating Wegovy (semaglutide) via an online clinic, without prior screening. She experienced rapid weight loss and hyperglycemia symptoms. Blood tests indicated high GAD65 and low C-peptide. The case underscores the need for biochemical screening and follow-up in digital obesity care.
