unpopular opinion: special authorization is massively overrated
Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful.
Setup: 15mg, week 81, sulphur burps present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable — province — and tracked it for 11 weeks.
Result: a difference, but a small one, and well inside what I would call noise if someone else posted it. So I am putting it here rather than presenting it as a finding. If two or three other people have done the same thing we might actually learn something.
Not medical advice, obviously. This is one person with a spreadsheet.
best — the order this archive was captured in
You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.
Week 73 for me and the honest summary is: 6kg down, muscle cramps manageable, and I have thought about food maybe four times today.
special authorisation is province-specific
The thing nobody prepared me for was the quiet. Not the appetite, the quiet. The constant negotiation in my head about food just stopped.
This is an urgent-care question wearing a forum question's clothes. Please contact a clinician rather than waiting for replies.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 59 weeks to accept.

Adding to this: private plan is doing more work than the comment implies.
Strongly agree. Provincial variation is real.
