comment on week 56 check-in — 31kg down, muscle cramps manageable, one thing confusing me in c/semaglutide · 252 points · 9 months ago
Sweden here. Waited 10 months on an NHS list, gave up, went private, and the cost was half what I expected but the admin was worse.
comment on [Lab] 17th independent test on BCH, and the trend is the interesting part in c/glp1uk · 14 points · 10 months ago
private 15mg is MHRA in the UK this month

Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.

no naming online pharmacies that prescribe without a consultation

MHRA supply notices change monthly, follow the actual list

Spain: 11 month NHS wait, gave up, went private, cost was UK monthly.
comment on [Question] triple agonist — what am I missing here in c/retatrutide · 45 points · 10 months ago
triple agonism is phase 2, do not generalise
comment on the 503A thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/compounding · 65 points · 11 months ago
Yeah, 503A and 503B are different regulatory animals.
comment on [Discussion] the plateau advice in here is 15 years out of date in c/semaglutide · 305 points · 11 months ago
my eGFR moved before the scale did and i nearly missed it
comment on [Results] 61 weeks on 1.7mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/compounding · 5 points · 11 months ago
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
comment on co-agonism — my 6-week log, condensed into one table in c/cagrilintide · 149 points · 11 months ago
[removed by moderator]
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 65 weeks to accept.
comment on switched from 0.5mg to 2.4mg and the the food-noise thing got better, not worse in c/retatrutide · 5 points · 12 months ago
This is correct. Triple agonism is genuinely different.
comment on [Discussion] we are measuring Wegovy at the wrong time and calling it noise in c/semaglutide · 0 points · 12 months ago
the 2.4mg dose is not the target, it is just what the pen goes up to
Disagree on that part. 98.7% and 97.4% on the same vial is normal.
comment on genuine question about titration that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/semaglutide · 204 points · 1 year ago
Did anything else change in the same window? Sleep, protein, steps, anything?
comment on genuine question about titration that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/semaglutide · 0 points · 1 year ago
Right, and the corollary is that stopping escalation does not reset your tolerance, it just pauses the clock.
comment on 7 months in and titration is still the thing I get wrong in c/semaglutide · 211 points · 1 year ago
Yeah, 87 weeks on 2.4mg, same pattern, same timing.
comment on the CagriSema question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/cagrilintide · 1 points · 1 year ago
Are we talking amylin or GLP-1 here?
comment on the CagriSema question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/cagrilintide · 14 points · 1 year ago
I am going to push back on this slightly.
comment on the CagriSema question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/cagrilintide · -20 points · 1 year ago
The research community is small on cagrilintide. Forum lore changes faster than data.
comment on 503B — 15 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/compounding · 27 points · 1 year ago
no pharmacy referral codes, naming is fine, recruiting is not
