[Question] ALT — what am I missing here

the CGM question that gets asked weekly, answered properly
hypoglycaemia. That is the whole post, but I will justify it. Everything else people worry about in c/glp1science is downstream of it. Titration speed, early fullness,…

help me understand hypoglycaemia, I have read the wiki twice
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…

small win: A1c stopped being a problem at week 50
Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful. Setup: 5mg, week 77, injection-site soreness present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one…

stalled for 10 weeks at 0.5mg and I refuse to panic this time
I have had 8 orders now and I keep a table, so here is the honest summary rather than a vibe. Material has been consistent. Communication has not. Shipping has varied…

the A1c question that gets asked weekly, answered properly
Genuinely asking, not being difficult. Everyone in c/t2dglp1 repeats that baseline labs is important. I believe it, but I have never seen anyone show why, and when I…

[Lab] 2th independent test on QSC, and the trend is the interesting part
Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles. The claim: CGM matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both sides have…

bloodwork — my 22-week log, condensed into one table
Long-ish post, sorry. tl;dr at the bottom. I have been tracking bloodwork against eGFR for 27 weeks because I could not find anyone who had. The correlation is weaker…

[Discussion] the weight conversation drowns out the glycaemic one
Right, the A1c question again, but with numbers this time. I have 7 data points over 6 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is chance, and…
