anyone else notice hypoglycaemia kicking in around week 40
hypoglycaemia. That is the whole post, but I will justify it.
Everything else people worry about in c/meta is downstream of it. Titration speed, muscle cramps, the endless dose arguments — most of it resolves if you sort hypoglycaemia out first, and almost nobody does.
I say this having got it wrong for 5 months. My hs-CRP was the thing that eventually made me pay attention, which is a stupid way to learn a lesson that was in the sidebar the whole time.

glycaemic control first, that is the original indication
Which country? Half the answers in this thread only apply in France.
the A1c change is the signal
Not to be pedantic but metformin and hypoglycaemia are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
no medication-stopping advice, ever
Stalled for 4 weeks, changed nothing, and it started moving again on week 40.
Water content matters more than people think. If a vial is carrying residual moisture, your "10mg" is not 10mg of peptide.
Came off after 77 weeks for financial reasons. Regained about a third over the following year. Back on now at a much lower dose.
