comment on [Pricing] UK private prescription pricing, monthly tracker, no affiliate links in c/glp1uk · 11 points · 2 days ago
England or Scotland? Different pathways.
comment on [Long Term] found my lowest effective dose by going down, not up in c/maintenancephase · 111 points · 10 days ago
Every time this gets posted it hits the front page and every time someone has to re-explain it.
comment on [Results] 14 months, 41kg, one boring spreadsheet, no photos by design in c/progresspics · -3 points · 10 days ago
include timeframe and starting point or it is a brag with no info
comment on [Long Term] found my lowest effective dose by going down, not up in c/maintenancephase · 3 points · 11 days ago
The plateau is real and boring. 83 weeks at the same weight, then movement again. Patience was the intervention.
comment on [Discussion] the compounding gap was a symptom, not a solution in c/compounding · 11 points · 11 days ago
API transparency is the question that separates good compounders from sketchy ones
comment on [PeptideMeter] QSC tirz — 97.1%, second sample from the same batch in c/labresults · 2 points · 14 days ago
sample of one, say so
comment on [Discussion] the UK conversation is completely different to the US one and we keep mixing them in c/glp1uk · 17 points · 14 days ago
Yeah, the NHS waitlist is genuinely two years in most places.
comment on [PSA] semaglutide salt forms are not the same molecule as semaglutide in c/compounding · 56 points · 16 days ago
Did they tell you their API source or dodge the question?
comment on [Below Spec] 88% is not "basically fine" and i am tired of that reply in c/labresults · 54 points · 24 days ago
the 98.1% result confirmed the vendor claim, that is the signal
comment on Germany: private prescription, and what it actually costs here in c/glp1uk · 55 points · 1 months ago
price posts need the date — UK pricing moves monthly
comment on [Question] do you tell new people how long this actually is in c/maintenancephase · 3 points · 1 months ago
comment on is it normal to get injection-site soreness at week 10 in c/glp1uk · 79 points · 1 months ago
Inter-lab variance on this kind of assay is routinely 1–2 points. Different column, different gradient, different integration.
comment on tried MHRA for 13 weeks. here is what happened. in c/glp1uk · 20 points · 1 months ago
the UK: 2 month NHS wait, gave up, went private, cost was private prescription monthly.
comment on [Results] 90 weeks, full dose-and-weight table, ask me anything in c/progresspics · 6 points · 1 months ago
include timeframe and starting point or it is a brag with no info
comment on [Struggle] regained 6kg over a winter and i am posting it anyway in c/progresspics · 55 points · 2 months ago
The thing nobody prepared me for was the quiet. Not the appetite, the quiet. The constant negotiation in my head about food just stopped.
comment on [Results] 31 weeks on 5mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/compounding · 6 points · 2 months ago
shortage list status is shortage list, check the actual list
comment on switched from 1.0mg to 2.5mg and the reflux got better, not worse in c/maintenancephase · 45 points · 3 months ago
Slight fix: the number was 98.7, not 98.9. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
comment on [Question] PeptideMeter — what am I missing here in c/labresults · 84 points · 3 months ago
testing the vendor claim versus testing your actual vial are two different posts
Adding to this: below spec is doing more work than the comment implies.
comment on three years of dose stretching threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/maintenancephase · 104 points · 3 months ago
Regain on a taper is expected.
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 63 weeks to accept.

regain is not a moral failing
