someone explain Australia to me like I have not read a paper in years

Discussion Slow Clap ×8

Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful.

Setup: 7.5mg, week 4, sulphur burps present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable — shortage — and tracked it for 8 weeks.

Result: a difference, but a small one, and well inside what I would call noise if someone else posted it. So I am putting it here rather than presenting it as a finding. If two or three other people have done the same thing we might actually learn something.

Not medical advice, obviously. This is one person with a spreadsheet.

Yeah, the 2024 rule change was sudden.

Slight fix: the number was 95.1, not 94.2. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.

The sulphur burps was genuinely awful for three weeks and then simply stopped. I know that is not useful information, but it is what happened.

Edit to your parent would help — the concentration you quoted assumes one scenario and you have written another above it.

Slight fix: the number was 98.7, not 99.0. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.

Stalled for 19 weeks, changed nothing, and it started moving again on week 32.
