comment on France: mg/mL, and what it actually costs here in c/reconstitution · 2 points · 6 months ago
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.

Removed a chain here. The rule is one line long and it is not negotiable.
comment on week 6 check-in — 47kg down, the food-noise thing manageable, one thing confusing me in c/t2dglp1 · 48 points · 7 months ago

dead space is real and the syringe matters

no medication-stopping advice, ever

Slight fix: the number was 98.1, not 98.0. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
comment on [Results] 12 weeks, 35kg, and special authorization was the hard part in c/glp1canada · 1 points · 8 months ago
special auth turnaround is province-specific
Disagree on that part. 98.9% and 99.0% on the same vial is normal.
comment on anyone else notice private prescription kicking in around week 4 in c/glp1uk · -6 points · 8 months ago
say which nation, England, Scotland, Wales, NI differ
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 39 weeks to accept.

Yeah, the NHS waitlist is genuinely two years in most places.

My TSH went from 8 to 7 in 90 weeks. The bloodwork story shows up in the trend, not the single number.

Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.
Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful. Setup: 2.5mg, week 52, injection-site soreness present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one…
