Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful. Setup: 0.5mg, week 12, constipation present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable —…
u/cardio_endpoint_c
MACE-3 is not a weight-loss endpoint and that is precisely why SELECT mattered.

ApoB over LDL-C, that is the hierarchy

This is correct. Appeal letters work.

do not suggest misrepresenting a diagnosis, that is fraud
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 24 weeks to accept.

side effects that ended someone's run
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about A1c until somebody posts a number in c/bloodwork · 1 points · 11 months ago
Slight fix: the number was 99.2, not 99.1.
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

Did anything else change in the same window?
comment on bacteriostatic water: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1 in c/reconstitution · 20 points · 1 year ago
10mg vial, 1mL water, concentration is 10/1 — write it on the vial afterwards

Edit to your parent would help — the concentration you quoted assumes one scenario and you have written another above it.

Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with formulary, not with what you concluded.
comment on concentration — 20 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/reconstitution · 543 points · 1 year ago
This is correct. 1mL versus 23mL is the common mistake.
comment on 7 months in and Apotheke is still the thing I get wrong in c/glp1eu · 10 points · 1 year ago
Came off after 93 weeks for financial reasons. Regained about a third over the following year. Back on now at a much lower dose.
comment on 7 months in and Apotheke is still the thing I get wrong in c/glp1eu · 123 points · 1 year ago
Slight fix: the number was 93.7, not 99.3. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
comment on [Results] 61 weeks on 12.5mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/bloodwork · 59 points · 1 year ago
Baseline ferritin: 98.3. Week 89: 97.9. Same lab, fasted, same time of day. Trend matters.

ALT is where the fatty-liver story shows up first

This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
