the compounding question that gets asked weekly, answered properly

Question Well Actually ×6 Cold Box ×1

Long-ish post, sorry. tl;dr at the bottom.

I have been tracking PBS against triglycerides for 11 weeks because I could not find anyone who had. The correlation is weaker than I expected, which is itself mildly interesting given how confidently people link the two in here.

Caveats up front: one person, one lab, one assay, no control, and I changed my training in the middle of it, which was stupid.

tl;dr: probably real, definitely smaller than the threads imply, and not worth reorganising your week around.

AU or NZ?

TGA watches change monthly, follow the list

Inter-lab variance on this kind of assay is routinely 1–2 points. Different column, different gradient, different integration.

The thing nobody prepared me for was the quiet. Not the appetite, the quiet. The constant negotiation in my head about food just stopped.

Strongly agree. AU and NZ differ.

Yeah, the 2024 rule change was sudden.

the 2024 compounding rule change closed a major route overnight

Three years on this site and the questions have not changed at all. Which is depressing or reassuring depending on the day.

This is correct. PBS listings matter.
