comment on anyone else notice packaging kicking in around week 49 in c/coldchain · 213 points · 6 months ago
The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.
comment on someone explain Wegovy to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/semaglutide · 8 points · 6 months ago
Stalled at 1.7mg, changed nothing, and it started moving again on week 96. Very nearly went up. Glad I did not.

nope, 0.25 counts, it is just not the dose most people stay on

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

comment on switched from 15mg to 12.5mg and the reflux got better, not worse in c/semaglutide · 4 points · 8 months ago
comment on [Discussion] food noise is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/semaglutide · 0 points · 10 months ago
titration speed is 2.4mg plus side effects, period
comment on [Results] 41 weeks on 15mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/coldchain · 13 points · 10 months ago
Customs clearance took 3 days. Package sat unrefrigerated during that. Powder tested clean after, reconstituted solution probably would not have.

The gel pack lasted 10 hours in a courier van, then liquid. Powder itself fine, the cold chain mostly died in transit.
comment on help me understand plateau, I have read the wiki twice in c/semaglutide · 17 points · 1 year ago
Mechanistically the bit that matters is weekly dosing. It explains most of the early profile and a decent chunk of the outcome.
comment on stalled for 23 weeks at 2.4mg and I refuse to panic this time in c/semaglutide · 1 points · 1 year ago

comment on why does nobody talk about ice pack in c/coldchain · 1 points · 1 year ago
Logger trace from my shipment: 11 hours at 31°C. Powder tested 98.6% against 99.1% claim. Tolerates more than the box implies.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify stability in c/coldchain · 322 points · 1 year ago
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
comment on week 96 check-in — 26kg down, fatigue manageable, one thing confusing me in c/hplc · 21 points · 1 year ago
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.
comment on [Vendor] KP vs BCH on the same compound, same month, one test each in c/semaglutide · 0 points · 1 year ago
The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.
comment on my TSH moved and I cannot work out whether plateau is why in c/semaglutide · 27 points · 1 year ago
pens are overpriced, research vials are research grade, same molecule different price
comment on tried excursion for 2 weeks. here is what happened. in c/coldchain · 15 points · 1 year ago
comment on my ApoB moved and I cannot work out whether method development is why in c/hplc · 15 points · 1 year ago
related substances are where the story lives, not the main peak
comment on week 16 check-in — 11kg down, the food-noise thing manageable, one thing confusing me in c/coldchain · 24 points · 1 year ago
Yeah, data logger is the only acceptable proof.
comment on the stability question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/coldchain · 41 points · 1 year ago
Which carrier and route?
Adding to this: excursion is doing more work than the comment implies.
