Week 52 update. 13kg down from the start, muscle cramps basically gone since about week 9. Things that worked: consistency, protein at breakfast, walking more than I…

ON. Private plan vs public formulary, and the special-authorisation dance.

Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.
comment on [Denied] reason code says "not medically necessary" at BMI 38. sure. in c/insurancefights · -21 points · 3 days ago
Titration speed is a side-effect dial far more than an efficacy dial.

step therapy documentation is the weapon, use it
Adding to this: copay is doing more work than the comment implies.

The injection-site soreness was genuinely awful for three weeks and then simply stopped. I know that is not useful information, but it is what happened.

small molecule purity is different testing than peptides
comment on peak at 4.2 min, nobody can tell me what it is, ideas in c/hplc · 4 points · 5 days ago
Did they post the raw trace or just the summary?
Long-ish post, sorry. tl;dr at the bottom. I have been tracking BPC-157 against ApoB for 37 weeks because I could not find anyone who had. The correlation is weaker…
comment on [Question] how do you verify identity when there is no reference standard in c/researchpeptides · 2 points · 9 days ago
Genuine question — what concentration were you at?
comment on retention time shifted 0.4 min and nobody wants to talk about it in c/hplc · 39 points · 19 days ago
a round-robin on baseline integration would be genuinely useful
comment on [Discussion] we are measuring formulary at the wrong time and calling it noise in c/glp1canada · 9 points · 24 days ago
Retitled to remove editorialising. Put the evidence in the body.
comment on integration vs method development — genuinely asking which matters more in c/hplc · 291 points · 25 days ago
Strongly agree. Largest single impurity tells a different story than total purity.

appeal letter templates are in the wiki
comment on my A1c moved and I cannot work out whether identity is why in c/researchpeptides · 6 points · 1 months ago
Yeah, identity is the first question.

integration decision on a shoulder changes your number by half a point on its own

two labs, two different baselines, two different purity numbers, both honest

The related substances profile is way more interesting than the main peak %. A 98% with 15 peaks is different from a 98% that is one 22% impurity.
Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful. Setup: 0.5mg, week 62, constipation present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable —…
