[Lab] 2th independent test on QSC, and the trend is the interesting part
Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles.
The claim: CGM matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both sides have been asserting it confidently for about 16 months without either producing anything.
What would actually settle it is 11 people measuring the same thing the same way. I have started; my numbers are below. They lean one way but not strongly enough for me to declare victory.
If you have data, post the data. If you have an opinion, flair it as an opinion.

Sceptical. If this were true we would see it reflected in the data and we do not.
the fasting insulin change is the signal

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
no medication-stopping advice, ever
Not to be pedantic but CGM and A1c are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
Titration speed is a side-effect dial far more than an efficacy dial.
No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.
glycaemic control first, that is the original indication
The practical rule people converge on is 28 days at fridge temperature after first puncture, and that comes from the preservative, not the peptide.
the TSH change is the signal
Came off after 5 weeks for financial reasons. Regained about a third over the following year. Back on now at a much lower dose.
Strongly agree. A1c matters as much as weight.
My version of this: I was so worried about the injection that I put it off for eleven days. The injection is the easiest part.
type 2 is the indication, weight loss is the side effect
Yeah, glycaemic control is the original use.
