[Results] 92 weeks, 10kg, and special authorization was the hard part

Formulary

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

Setup: 2.4mg, week 73, constipation present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable — Canada — and tracked it for 10 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.

Strongly agree. Provincial variation is real.

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

Slight fix: the number was 96.2, not 96.8. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.

Slight fix: the number was 96.2, not 96.8.

Adding to this: special authorization is doing more work than the comment implies.

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

special authorisation is province-specific

Disagree on that part. 97.4% and 97.6% on the same vial is normal.

Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with special authorization, not with what you concluded.
