[CGM] my dawn phenomenon barely changed and that surprised me

CGM

hypoglycaemia. That is the whole post, but I will justify it.

Everything else people worry about in c/meta is downstream of it. Titration speed, early fullness, the endless dose arguments — most of it resolves if you sort hypoglycaemia out first, and almost nobody does.

I say this having got it wrong for 5 months. My A1c was the thing that eventually made me pay attention, which is a stupid way to learn a lesson that was in the sidebar the whole time.

Yeah, glycaemic control is the original use.

Water content matters more than people think. If a vial is carrying residual moisture, your "10mg" is not 10mg of peptide.

CGM traces tell a story, numbers alone do not

glycaemic control first, that is the original indication

Maintenance for 20 months now. Weight moves within about 3kg and the dose is a quarter of what it peaked at.

About c/t2dglp1

Type 2 diabetes as the original indication: A1c trajectories, CGM traces, hypoglycaemia risk when stacked with sulfonylureas or insulin, metformin combinations, and why the weight-loss conversation sometimes drowns out the glycaemic one.
