my triglycerides moved and I cannot work out whether ferritin is why
Been lurking in c/reconstitution for about 18 months and finally have something worth posting.
Short version: week 71, 12.5mg, and baseline labs is the bit I still cannot get a straight answer on. I have read the wiki, I have read the last 29 threads, and the answers split roughly down the middle.
What I actually want to know is whether the people saying it does not matter have measured it, or whether it is just repeated confidently. Happy to be told I am overthinking this — I probably am — but I would rather overthink it now than at week 77.
best — the order this archive was captured in

Baseline hs-CRP: 98.3. Week 40: 98.7. Same lab, fasted, same time of day. Trend matters.
ApoB over LDL-C, that is the hierarchy

Adding to this: baseline labs is doing more work than the comment implies.
the 19 month lipids check is the routine
eGFR noise during rapid loss is expected
Yeah, baseline matters more than any later number.
ferritin tanks quietly on a reduced appetite, check it
Yeah, baseline matters more than any later number.
