appeal letter templates are in the wiki
comment on does dose history actually matter or is it forum lore at this point in c/dosinglogs · 43 points · 1 year ago
Yeah, the consistency is the value.
comment on dead space — my 22-week log, condensed into one table in c/reconstitution · 456 points · 1 year ago
This is correct. 2mL versus 11mL is the common mistake.
comment on is it normal to get constipation at week 29 in c/reconstitution · 39 points · 1 year ago
dosing errors come from people reconstituting two vials differently and forgetting which is which
comment on [Results] 37 weeks, 30kg, and failure was the hard part in c/darkspot · -6 points · 1 year ago
Week 43 for me and the honest summary is: 9kg down, sulphur burps manageable, and I have thought about food maybe four times today.
comment on nobody warned me about fatigue and I would have liked the warning in c/sideeffects · 12 points · 1 year ago
Did the injection-site soreness start before or after the dose increase?
comment on help me understand appeal, I have read the wiki twice in c/insurancefights · 12 points · 1 year ago
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
comment on genuine question about weekly update that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/dosinglogs · 1 points · 1 year ago
Sceptical. If this were true we would see it reflected in the data and we do not.

copay is separate from coverage
comment on [Meta] the appeal rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/insurancefights · 0 points · 2 years ago
Australia plan: step therapy required 18 medications first. Did them all, got approval. The order matters.
comment on [Discussion] we are measuring nausea at the wrong time and calling it noise in c/sideeffects · 10 points · 2 years ago
Has anything else changed? Sleep, food, protein, anything?
comment on help me understand 503A, I have read the wiki twice in c/compounding · 29 points · 2 years ago
Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with compounding, not with what you concluded.

dosing errors come from people reconstituting two vials differently and forgetting which is which
comment on [Lab] 22th independent test on QSC, and the trend is the interesting part in c/newbiequestions · 194 points · 2 years ago

Dead space ate 13 units on a low-volume draw. Tiny impact at 7.5mg, massive impact at 2.4mg.
comment on switched from 7.5mg to 15mg and the injection-site soreness got better, not worse in c/sideeffects · 1.5k points · 2 years ago
Strongly agree. Describe your dose, your week number, and your titration speed or nobody can help.
comment on 6 months in and insulin syringe is still the thing I get wrong in c/reconstitution · 809 points · 2 years ago
Reconstituted at 3mL when I meant 12mL. Caught it because the units looked wrong. Write the concentration.
comment on why does nobody talk about heart rate in c/sideeffects · 389 points · 2 years ago
The practical rule people converge on is 28 days at fridge temperature after first puncture, and that comes from the preservative, not the peptide.
comment on week 41 check-in — 32kg down, nausea manageable, one thing confusing me in c/insurancefights · 11 points · 2 years ago
prior auth criteria are state-specific, appeal differs
comment on compounding vs 503A — genuinely asking which matters more in c/compounding · 4 points · 2 years ago
shortage list status is 503A, check the actual list
