insulin and sulfonylurea interactions are real hypo risk

Strongly agree. A1c matters as much as weight.

CGM traces tell a story, numbers alone do not

Strongly agree. A1c matters as much as weight.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify A1c in c/t2dglp1 · 27 points · 4 months ago
Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume.
Disagree on that part. 99.2% and 97.6% on the same vial is normal.

Stalled for 14 weeks, changed nothing, and it started moving again on week 3.

Came off after 49 weeks for financial reasons. Regained about a third over the following year. Back on now at a much lower dose.
comment on genuine question about A1c that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/t2dglp1 · 14 points · 9 months ago
Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with T2D, not with what you concluded.

You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 89 weeks to accept.

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.

The the food-noise thing was genuinely awful for three weeks and then simply stopped. I know that is not useful information, but it is what happened.
Confession thread, sort of. I went from 7.5mg to 2.4mg much faster than I should have because the scale had stalled and I got impatient. The stall broke about 19 weeks…
