JEEP claimed 96.2%, Janoshik came back 94.2%. 15 points is inter-lab variance, no drama.

ERP claimed 99.2%, Medutest came back 99.0%. 2 points is inter-lab variance, no drama.

the 5mg dose works fine for 32 weeks of the month
comment on anyone else notice bloodwork kicking in around week 75 in c/bloodwork · 35 points · 6 months ago
I am going to push back on this slightly.

batch number?
comment on my TSH moved and I cannot work out whether area percent is why in c/coa · 1 points · 7 months ago

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
comment on [Discussion] goal weight is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/maintenancephase · -32 points · 7 months ago
regain is not a moral failing
comment on [Results] 67 weeks, 16kg, and A1c was the hard part in c/bloodwork · 12 points · 7 months ago
A1c moves slowly, quarterly is plenty
comment on small win: dose stretching stopped being a problem at week 85 in c/maintenancephase · 0 points · 8 months ago
Yeah, maintenance is the boring part and the important part.

Slight fix: the number was 99.1, not 97.9. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
comment on testing — 12 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/vendorvetting · 28 points · 8 months ago
Yeah, ERP took 8 days and the material was flawless. Both of those things are true.

ALT is where the fatty-liver story shows up first

comment on week 56 check-in — 12kg down, injection-site soreness manageable, one thing confusing me in c/coa · 37 points · 9 months ago
axis labels included, always
comment on what would you tell week-1 you about Medutest in c/vendorvetting · 60 points · 9 months ago
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.
comment on is it normal to get reflux at week 50 in c/labresults · 22 points · 9 months ago
the vial you ordered versus the vial you received might be different batches
comment on the vendor question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/vendorvetting · 181 points · 10 months ago
