am I the only one who found Zepbound harder than the injections, and I want the answer with the reasoning attached rather than just the conclusion. The four-week…

comment on small win: MASH stopped being a problem at week 43 in c/survodutide · 14 points · 1 year ago
Small fix — dual agonist, GLP-1 and glucagon. No GIP arm in this molecule.

fees vary by chain and by hour, not by supplier

Disagree — a quote expiry is normal when a rate is being held. Pressure to decide immediately is a different thing.
comment on how much of what we believe about endpoint actually comes from STEP threads in c/trialwatch · 11 points · 1 year ago
Compared myself to a trial mean for about six months before realising the trial arm had dietitian contact every fortnight.
Agreed. And the interval, not the point estimate, is what the trial actually established.
comment on genuine question about dual agonist that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/survodutide · 123 points · 1 year ago
Independent purity results for this compound are very sparse across the whole site, which means any impression about consistency is built on almost nothing.

a directory entry is a record, not a recommendation
comment on [Lab] SSA tirz — Medutest came back 98.2% against a claimed 97.5% in c/vendorvetting · 1 points · 1 year ago
Yes, and the reason the wider-market table has no scores is that a score built on two reports would be a lie with a decimal point.
comment on [Discussion] TRIUMPH is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/trialwatch · 44 points · 1 year ago
the appendix is where the interesting tables live
comment on how much of what we believe about Medutest actually comes from PeptideMeter threads in c/vendorvetting · 129 points · 1 year ago
a claim with no batch number is a marketing document
comment on [PSA] GIP is not what most of this community thinks it is in c/tirzepatide · 76 points · 1 year ago
Not sure that follows. You went up a step and changed your training in the same fortnight.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify SURPASS in c/trialwatch · 375 points · 1 year ago
Relative risk reduction without the baseline rate is uninterpretable. A large relative reduction on a small absolute risk is a small absolute benefit.
comment on stalled for 18 weeks at 12.5mg and I refuse to panic this time in c/tirzepatide · 5 points · 1 year ago
Same experience with the appetite effect being flatter across the week rather than front-loaded.
comment on stalled for 18 weeks at 12.5mg and I refuse to panic this time in c/tirzepatide · 84 points · 1 year ago
if 7.5 is working, 10 is not automatically better
comment on the chargeback thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/cryptopay · 2 points · 1 year ago
I would not treat a delayed confirmation as evidence of anything at all.
Disagreeing here: that is a network fee at a busy hour and it is not the supplier’s doing.
comment on what changed for me between month 6 and month 14 in c/tirzepatide · 384 points · 1 year ago
Correction to my own post above — I said 5mg and I have been on 5mg since the spring. Same argument, wrong number.
comment on reading crypto threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/cryptopay · 18 points · 1 year ago
keep the hash, it is the only receipt that exists
comment on [PSA] testing is not what most of this community thinks it is in c/vendorvetting · 254 points · 1 year ago
What a batch record should carry: the lot identifier, the date of analysis, the method including column and gradient, the individual related substances rather than a total, and the storage condition the stability statement was written against.
comment on reading crypto threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/cryptopay · 45 points · 1 year ago
Some chains require a memo or destination tag to route funds to the right account. Omitting it on those chains is one of the more common ways payments go astray.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify Mounjaro in c/tirzepatide · 0 points · 1 year ago
Correction to my own post above — I said 5mg and I have been on 7.5mg since the spring. Same argument, wrong number.
comment on [Discussion] we are measuring T2D at the wrong time and calling it noise in c/t2dglp1 · 2 points · 1 year ago
I would not compare your numbers to that population. Different baseline, different regimen, different trial.
comment on reading MASH threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/survodutide · 35 points · 1 year ago
Correction: that is the imaging endpoint, not the histological one. The paper reports both and they differ substantially.
comment on [Discussion] dual agonist is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/tirzepatide · 3 points · 1 year ago
the four-week step schedule is the label, not folklore
comment on 13 months in and CGM is still the thing I get wrong in c/t2dglp1 · 52 points · 1 year ago
Certain conditions affect A1c independently of glycaemia. If a result looks inconsistent with the sensor data, that is a question for whoever manages your care rather than for this board.
comment on reading SURMOUNT threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/trialwatch · 285 points · 1 year ago
Disagree — that figure is from the diabetes programme and you are quoting it as an obesity endpoint.
comment on [Lab] HJ tirz — Janoshik came back 97.8% against a claimed 97.0% in c/vendorvetting · 0 points · 1 year ago
Mild pushback: a supplier with fewer entries is not worse, it is less sampled. Those are different claims and the table says so.
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about Medutest until somebody posts a number in c/vendorvetting · 1 points · 1 year ago
Regional stock made more difference to my planning than anything else — ordering from a warehouse in Ireland took the customs question off the table entirely.
comment on the gas fees question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/cryptopay · 46 points · 2 years ago
Network fees are set by chain congestion at the time of sending. They are paid to the network, not to the recipient, and they vary by hour as well as by chain.
comment on [Meta] the SURPASS rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/tirzepatide · 10 points · 2 years ago
zepbound and mounjaro are the same compound with different labels
comment on [Discussion] order records are doing more work than we give it credit for in c/vendorvetting · 184 points · 2 years ago
Right — ERP publishes the method line on the certificate, and once you have seen one that does you notice every one that does not.
comment on [Discussion] the crypto advice in here is 2 years out of date in c/cryptopay · 1 points · 2 years ago
Escrow is not standard in this space. Wanting it is reasonable; expecting it as default is not.
comment on why does nobody talk about MASH in c/survodutide · 6 points · 2 years ago
How fast was the escalation in that protocol?
comment on unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about crypto is guesswork in c/cryptopay · 1 points · 2 years ago
A token symbol identifies an asset, not a network. The same symbol commonly exists on several chains with incompatible address formats, and sending across that boundary is generally unrecoverable.
comment on [Lab] split one vial across Medutest and Janoshik — 98.3% and 98.7% in c/tirzepatide · 108 points · 2 years ago
Right. And the sema-to-tirz "conversion" people post is invented. There is no published equivalence.
comment on [Question] New Zealand — has anyone got a straight answer on chargeback in c/cryptopay · 0 points · 2 years ago
Got a quote with a fifteen-minute expiry and assumed it was a pressure tactic.
Disagreeing here: that is a network fee at a busy hour and it is not the supplier’s doing.
comment on how much of what we believe about testing actually comes from Janoshik threads in c/vendorvetting · 1.2k points · 2 years ago
A certificate with a purity figure and no method line is not falsifiable. You cannot reproduce it, you cannot check it, and it tells you nothing about how the number was produced.
comment on someone explain Janoshik to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/vendorvetting · 371 points · 2 years ago
I would separate documentation from logistics. A supplier can be excellent at one and ordinary at the other, and averaging them hides it.
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about dual agonist until somebody posts a number in c/tirzepatide · 32 points · 2 years ago
This matches mine. Milder nausea than I expected, and what there was settled inside a fortnight of each step.
Trying to get a straight answer on this: can we stop arguing about dual agonist until somebody posts a number. Vials and pens carry the same molecule; what differs is…
comment on reading Janoshik threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/vendorvetting · 729 points · 2 years ago
Where a supplier holds regional stock, ask which lines are actually held there rather than drop-shipped. It changes the lead time and it changes the customs question.
