comment on [Lab] 16th independent test on QSC, and the trend is the interesting part in c/retatrutide · 88 points · 6 months ago
Did you actually measure heart rate or is that a feeling?
comment on [Lab] SGN BPC — VendorInvestigate came back 93.7% against a claimed 94.2% in c/coa · 0 points · 6 months ago
redact your own name, not the vendor's batch details
Disagree on that part. 98.4% and 98.3% on the same vial is normal.
comment on [PSA] tapering is not what most of this community thinks it is in c/tapering · 1 points · 6 months ago
tapering instructions are not welcome here
Disagree on that part. 98.7% and 98.9% on the same vial is normal.
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about glucagon until somebody posts a number in c/retatrutide · 26 points · 6 months ago
Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.

phase 2 numbers are not maintenance numbers, cite the trial
comment on stalled for 22 weeks at 1.0mg and I refuse to panic this time in c/coa · 98 points · 6 months ago
the counterion is part of the mass you paid for
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 36 weeks to accept.
comment on what changed for me between week 30 and week 79 in c/retatrutide · 20 points · 6 months ago
This is correct.
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
comment on is it normal to get the food-noise thing at week 20 in c/glp1muscle · 11 points · 6 months ago
DEXA twice yearly is the pattern
comment on my TSH moved and I cannot work out whether area percent is why in c/coa · 34 points · 7 months ago
Titration speed is a side-effect dial far more than an efficacy dial.
comment on someone explain regain to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/tapering · 137 points · 7 months ago
Yeah, regain is not a failure.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify protein in c/glp1muscle · 10 points · 7 months ago
lean mass retention is the 41 week conversation
comment on [Question] New Zealand — has anyone got a straight answer on LC-MS in c/hplc · 19 points · 7 months ago
Edit to your parent would help — the concentration you quoted assumes one scenario and you have written another above it.
comment on [Question] ALT — what am I missing here in c/bloodwork · 43 points · 8 months ago
ferritin tanks quietly on a reduced appetite, check it
comment on [Question] discontinuation — what am I missing here in c/tapering · 7 points · 8 months ago
Stalled for 19 weeks, changed nothing, and it started moving again on week 62.
comment on goal — my 15-week log, condensed into one table in c/progresspics · 503 points · 8 months ago
the community is deliberately image-free
comment on goal — my 15-week log, condensed into one table in c/progresspics · 311 points · 8 months ago
the goal change matters as much as the scale
comment on small win: packaging stopped being a problem at week 66 in c/coldchain · 138 points · 9 months ago
This is correct. Dry powder is way more robust than liquid.
comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for packaging posts in c/coldchain · 99 points · 9 months ago
Every time this gets posted it hits the front page and every time someone has to re-explain it.
comment on ice pack: what the trials say vs what this community says in c/coldchain · 6 points · 11 months ago
lyophilised powder is far more forgiving than reconstituted solution
comment on [Lab] SGN sema — VendorInvestigate came back 93.7% against a claimed 98.6% in c/bloodwork · 372 points · 11 months ago
