Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles. The claim: lost money matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both sides…

resubmission after denial requires new documentation
comment on constipation: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1 in c/sideeffects · -27 points · 1 year ago
Yeah, the the food-noise thing hit on day 24 for me too, not day 1.
comment on failure — my 14-week log, condensed into one table in c/darkspot · 8 points · 1 year ago
I am going to push back on this slightly.
comment on the reflux question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/sideeffects · 210 points · 1 year ago
This is correct. The muscle cramps is horrible for three weeks and then just ends.
comment on [Meta] the beginner rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/newbiequestions · 14 points · 1 year ago
week two nothing happening — yes, that is normal
comment on genuine question about bacteriostatic water that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/reconstitution · 103 points · 1 year ago
Half-life is about 168 hours, so steady state lands around week 16–5. Practical consequence: what you feel in week 1 is not what that dose does.
comment on tried denial for 4 weeks. here is what happened. in c/insurancefights · 10 points · 1 year ago
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.
comment on genuine question about external review that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/insurancefights · 63 points · 2 years ago
copay is separate from coverage

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.
