comment on [PSA] gallbladder is not what most of this community thinks it is in c/sideeffects · 437 points · 1 year ago
sulphur burps are unpleasant and they are not dangerous
comment on [Meta] the 2.4mg rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/semaglutide · 78 points · 1 year ago
The escalation schedule in the trials existed to keep people on the drug. It is a tolerability ramp, and it is why the label reads the way it does.
comment on [Vendor] MKM vs CPC on the same compound, same month — both cleared 97.0% in c/semaglutide · 22 points · 1 year ago
First month I lost almost nothing and nearly quit. Month two and three were where it all happened.
comment on does semaglutide actually matter or is it forum lore at this point in c/semaglutide · 50 points · 1 year ago
Small correction: 2.4mg is the maintenance ceiling on the label, not the starting maintenance dose. The distinction matters for anyone reading this later.
comment on the UK: network, and what it actually costs here in c/cryptopay · 19 points · 1 year ago
Which network, exactly?
comment on sulphur burps: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1 in c/sideeffects · 36 points · 1 year ago
Has anything else changed in the same window?
comment on gallbladder — 15 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/sideeffects · -14 points · 1 year ago
The fatigue turned out to be that I was eating about a third of what I thought I was. Tracked it for a week and the mystery evaporated.
comment on three years of 2.4mg threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/semaglutide · 274 points · 1 year ago
My stall was eleven weeks. Eleven. Then it moved again without me changing anything at all.

Pushback: you changed the dose, the meal timing and the training in the same fortnight, so the attribution is guesswork.
comment on [Discussion] the chargeback advice in here is 3 years out of date in c/cryptopay · 10 points · 1 year ago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 21 months in and semaglutide is still the thing I get wrong in c/semaglutide · 20 points · 1 year ago
dose day drift of a day either way is fine, the curve barely notices
comment on my A1c moved and I cannot work out whether reflux is why in c/sideeffects · 107 points · 1 year ago
Cosigning the fibre and water answer. Unglamorous, free, and it fixed it for me inside a week.
comment on [Results] 58 weeks, 21kg, and plateau was the hard part in c/semaglutide · 914 points · 1 year ago
My stall was eleven weeks. Eleven. Then it moved again without me changing anything at all.
comment on [Results] 92 weeks, 29kg, and heart rate was the hard part in c/sideeffects · 55 points · 1 year ago
nobody warns you about how much of this is timing rather than dose
comment on my TSH moved and I cannot work out whether sulphur burps are why in c/sideeffects · 0 points · 2 years ago
A symptom that begins the day after the shot and fades by day four tracks the exposure curve. One that appears at random in week 20 probably does not, and that is worth saying to a clinician rather than to us.
comment on chargeback — 8 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/cryptopay · 68 points · 2 years ago
Asked which networks WWB accepted before ordering and picked the cheapest one at that hour. Saved more than the difference in price.
comment on how much of what we believe about weekly update actually comes from tracking threads in c/dosinglogs · 2 points · 2 years ago
export it somewhere you will still be able to read in two years
comment on [Discussion] the crypto advice in here is 2 years out of date in c/cryptopay · 497 points · 2 years ago
Did the address you sent to match the one you were given, character for character?
comment on small win: fatigue stopped being a problem at week 82 in c/sideeffects · 43 points · 2 years ago
Severe, or unpleasant? They are genuinely different questions and the answers diverge.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify hair loss in c/sideeffects · 79 points · 2 years ago
Not convinced by that mechanism. Slowed gastric emptying explains fullness and reflux; it does not explain what you are describing.
comment on someone explain food noise to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/semaglutide · 64 points · 2 years ago
The weekly interval comes out of the half-life — roughly a week — so you are on a smooth curve rather than a series of spikes. That is also why moving your day slightly does very little.
comment on 17 months in and fatigue is still the thing I get wrong in c/sideeffects · 27 points · 2 years ago
hair shedding follows the weight loss, not the drug, and it stops
