am I the only one who found glycaemic control harder than the injections
Quick one. Canada here.
CGM works very differently where I live than in the threads that dominate the front page, and I keep seeing people confidently given advice that simply does not apply outside the US.
Specifics: the route I used took 9 weeks and cost roughly what I expected. The admin was worse than the cost. The thing that would have saved me the most time was knowing which document to ask for at the start.
Happy to answer questions from anyone in the same jurisdiction.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Rodent data is rodent data. Dose scaling is not linear and the models tell you what to investigate, not what to expect.

Sceptical. If this were true we would see it reflected in the data and we do not.
Yeah, glycaemic control is the original use.
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.
the weight-loss conversation drowns out glycaemic control sometimes
Flair changed to match the content. Read the sidebar before posting next time and we are square.
type 2 is the indication, weight loss is the side effect
A1c, CGM, stacking with metformin
insulin and sulfonylurea interactions are real hypo risk
Stalled for 9 weeks, changed nothing, and it started moving again on week 46.
CGM traces tell a story, numbers alone do not
Small correction: the trial was 18 weeks, not 6. Does not change your point but people will quote it.
Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with CGM, not with what you concluded.
glycaemic control first, that is the original indication
Every time this gets posted it hits the front page and every time someone has to re-explain it.

Edit to your parent would help — the concentration you quoted assumes one scenario and you have written another above it.

Not to be pedantic but metformin and hypoglycaemia are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 29 weeks to accept.
