help me understand hypoglycaemia, I have read the wiki twice

Results Long Haul ×5

Confession thread, sort of.

I went from 2.5mg to 1.0mg much faster than I should have because the scale had stalled and I got impatient. The stall broke about 20 weeks later, at which point I had no way of knowing whether the dose increase did anything or whether it would have broken anyway.

So now I have sulphur burps I did not need and a data point I cannot interpret. Two lessons in one.

Posting it in the hope that somebody at week 66 reads it before doing the same thing.

hypoglycaemia risk when stacked with A1c

u/tomas_lundgren67 points·1 months ago

Strongly agree. A1c matters as much as weight.

u/lucia_balogun19 points·1 months ago

Strongly agree.

Adding to this: glycaemic control is doing more work than the comment implies.

CGM traces tell a story, numbers alone do not

Half-life is about 168 hours, so steady state lands around week 14–5. Practical consequence: what you feel in week 1 is not what that dose does.

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.
