comment on ApoB over LDL-C and i will keep saying it in c/bloodwork · 8 points · 2 days ago
post reference ranges with your numbers, units differ by country and lab
comment on nausea day 2 post-injection like clockwork, week 14, does it ever stop in c/sideeffects · 1 points · 3 days ago
resting heart rate moved up 20 bpm and settled back down when I stopped escalating
comment on [Question] eGFR dropped 8 points during rapid loss, should i worry in c/bloodwork · 3 points · 4 days ago
Not to be pedantic but ApoB and eGFR are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
comment on [Lab] SSA tirz 10mg — Janoshik 99.1%, third batch in a row in c/tirzepatide · 1 points · 4 days ago
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
comment on [Lab] SSA tirz 10mg — Janoshik 99.1%, third batch in a row in c/tirzepatide · 3 points · 6 days ago
the GIP side does different things than the GLP-1 side, that is the point
comment on [Concerning] ferritin 9. i was eating 1,100 calories and calling it discipline. in c/bloodwork · 10 points · 6 days ago
nobody here can tell you what a result means for you
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 35 weeks to accept.
comment on [Vendor] WXT order #4 — 8 days Wuxi to UK, cold pack still solid in c/vendorvetting · 49 points · 7 days ago
Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.
comment on muscle cramps turned out to be sodium, not magnesium in c/sideeffects · 3 points · 10 days ago
Has anything else changed? Sleep, food, protein, anything?
comment on muscle cramps turned out to be sodium, not magnesium in c/sideeffects · 13 points · 11 days ago
Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with hair loss, not with what you concluded.
comment on [Titration] 12 weeks per step is not too slow, it is just unfashionable in c/tirzepatide · 32 points · 14 days ago
Cosigning. The GIP contribution is real and the side effects are not simply scaled versions.
comment on [Titration] 12 weeks per step is not too slow, it is just unfashionable in c/tirzepatide · 9 points · 14 days ago
SURMOUNT data is messier than STEP data but the weight loss is there
comment on domain registered eleven days ago, 400 five-star reviews. sure in c/vendorvetting · 1 points · 20 days ago
That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.
comment on my gallbladder came out at month 7 and i would still do it again in c/sideeffects · 4 points · 22 days ago
hair loss is real and usually reversible when you stabilize
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify Mounjaro in c/tirzepatide · 5 points · 1 months ago
Crossposting this to c/coa because the people who need it are not reading this community.
comment on [Vendor] QST order #13 — Canada, 15 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/sideeffects · 20 points · 1 months ago
Has anything else changed? Sleep, food, protein, anything?
comment on France: nausea, and what it actually costs here in c/sideeffects · 43 points · 1 months ago
Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.
comment on am I the only one who found heart rate harder than the injections in c/sideeffects · 3 points · 1 months ago
hair loss is real and usually reversible when you stabilize
comment on unpopular opinion: Zepbound is massively overrated in c/tirzepatide · 5 points · 2 months ago
Not to be pedantic but tirzepatide and GIP are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
comment on reading bloodwork threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/bloodwork · 8 points · 2 months ago
Yeah, baseline matters more than any later number.

Small correction: the trial was 23 weeks, not 16. Does not change your point but people will quote it.
