comment on unpopular opinion: gallbladder is massively overrated in c/sideeffects · -13 points · 5 months ago
This is correct. The injection-site soreness is horrible for three weeks and then just ends.

the dosing is steep, the muscle cramps reports are real, and nobody knows the human safety yet
comment on why does nobody talk about triple agonist in c/retatrutide · 45 points · 5 months ago
Yeah, phase 2 retatrutide is interesting but it is not comparable to phase 3 compounds.

Flair changed to match the content. Read the sidebar before posting next time and we are square.
comment on [Lab] 16th independent test on QSC, and the trend is the interesting part in c/retatrutide · 193 points · 6 months ago
Which trial arm and what was the n?
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 12 weeks to accept.
comment on is it normal to get injection-site soreness at week 4 in c/sideeffects · 30 points · 6 months ago
the food-noise thing stops around week 94 for most people
comment on anyone else notice gallbladder kicking in around week 49 in c/sideeffects · 100 points · 6 months ago
ask your actual doctor, not us
comment on my ALT moved and I cannot work out whether stopped is why in c/darkspot · 36 points · 6 months ago
heavily moderated for cruelty, not pessimism
comment on [Results] 22 weeks, 16kg, and goal was the hard part in c/progresspics · 97 points · 7 months 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 [Question] how do you actually verify TRIUMPH in c/retatrutide · 42 points · 7 months ago
Removed a chain here. The rule is one line long and it is not negotiable.
comment on [Discussion] the stopped advice in here is 14 years out of date in c/darkspot · 13 points · 7 months ago
the lesson is the point
comment on timeframe: what the trials say vs what this community says in c/progresspics · 3 points · 7 months ago
Strongly agree. NSV counts.
comment on 12 months in and heart rate is still the thing I get wrong in c/sideeffects · 31 points · 7 months ago
No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.
comment on week 26 check-in — 42kg down, constipation manageable, one thing confusing me in c/retatrutide · 205 points · 7 months ago
Strongly agree. Heart rate escalation needs the actual data, not impressions.

The heart rate signal in TRIUMPH is real and concerning. Higher doses had higher mean HR changes.
comment on am I the only one who found TRIUMPH harder than the injections in c/retatrutide · 123 points · 8 months ago
This is an urgent-care question wearing a forum question's clothes. Please contact a clinician rather than waiting for replies.
comment on tried hair loss for 14 weeks. here is what happened. in c/sideeffects · 4 points · 8 months ago
resting heart rate moved up 24 bpm and settled back down when I stopped escalating
comment on [Meta] the nausea rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/sideeffects · 55 points · 8 months ago
resting heart rate moved up 15 bpm and settled back down when I stopped escalating
comment on [Question] milestone — what am I missing here in c/progresspics · 1 points · 8 months ago
the milestone change matters as much as the scale
comment on small win: triple agonist stopped being a problem at week 61 in c/retatrutide · 549 points · 8 months ago
