GI, fatigue, hair, heart rate. What passes, what needs a doctor.

Fourteen months of logging this. Pattern is boringly consistent: injection evening fine, day 1 fine, day 2 rough from about mid-morning to bedtime, day 3 onwards fine.…
Posting the full arc because every thread I found while it was happening was written by someone in the middle of it, which is the least reassuring possible moment.…
Quick one. Canada here. reflux works very differently where I live than in the threads that dominate the front page, and I keep seeing people confidently given advice…
Sigma-Aldrich — certified reference materials
Reference standards, analytical reagents and system-suitability material. If you are running your own method, start with a known.
Reference standardsRight, the sulphur burps question again, but with numbers this time. I have 16 data points over 16 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is…
nausea. That is the whole post, but I will justify it. Everything else people worry about in c/bpc157 is downstream of it. Titration speed, early fullness, the endless…
Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful. Setup: 2.4mg, week 73, injection-site soreness present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one…
Right, the constipation question again, but with numbers this time. I have 12 data points over 8 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is…
Week 72 update. 28kg down from the start, early fullness basically gone since about week 17. Things that worked: consistency, protein at breakfast, walking more than I…
Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles. The claim: hair loss matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both sides…

Genuinely asking, not being difficult. Everyone in c/vendorvetting repeats that fatigue is important. I believe it, but I have never seen anyone show why, and when I…

Been lurking in c/t2dglp1 for about 18 months and finally have something worth posting. Short version: week 80, 7.5mg, and fatigue is the bit I still cannot get a…
