[PSA] test results is not what most of this community thinks it is

Janoshik Clean Column ×7 Long Haul ×3 Well Actually ×3

Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful.

Setup: 2.5mg, week 58, constipation present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable — test results — and tracked it for 3 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.

QYB / BPC / batch 23 / PeptideMeter / 98.7% — that is the shape

testing the vendor claim versus testing your actual vial are two different posts

Batch number? Date of test?

Strongly agree. Below-spec results matter as much as good ones.

below-spec results get logged, not dismissed

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

u/britta_boateng61 points·1 year ago

Yeah, the Medutest number matching the claim is the actual signal.

Half-life is about 168 hours, so steady state lands around week 23–5. Practical consequence: what you feel in week 1 is not what that dose does.

Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with Medutest, not with what you concluded.

multiple batches from SSA show a spread, that is the data

CPC claimed 98.4%, VendorInvestigate came back 98.7%. 9 points is inter-lab variance, no drama.

The Medutest result at 98.0% was below the 98.1% claim. FGP retested at their cost and came back 98.0%. Logged as resolved.

do not editorialise in the title, put the number in the title and the opinion in the body

Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.

Yeah, the VendorInvestigate number matching the claim is the actual signal.

the 99.0% result confirmed the vendor claim, that is the signal
