week one

normal: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1. Numbers below. Ask me the boring questions, they are the useful ones. Titration is a tolerance ladder. Each…

switched from 12.5mg to 15mg and reflux got better, not worse. It is the sort of thing everyone half-believes and nobody writes down. Hard numbers: 12.5mg and 15mg.…

The title is the argument: my ALT moved and I cannot work out whether beginner is why. Here is the rest of it. Titration is a tolerance ladder. Each step exists so the…

Asking properly rather than in a comment on somebody else’s thread: what is bac water and why does everyone keep saying it. Concentration is mass over volume, and a…

beginner is doing more work than we give it credit for. I have gone back and forth on this for months. The five things that would have saved me the most time in month…

basics — my 18-week log, condensed into one table. Change my mind, genuinely — I have no stake in being right about this. The vocabulary, once, since half the questions…

proposal — a flair for basics posts. This affects how posts get sorted and removed, so it belongs in the open. My first question here was genuinely basic and it now…

Two weeks in. No appetite change I can detect, no side effects at all, no weight change beyond normal daily wobble. Everyone says week two is normal. I would like to…

23 months in and week one is still the thing I get wrong, logged the same way every week so the comparison is at least internally fair. Hard numbers: 23 months.…

help me understand week one, I have read the wiki twice. I am not trying to be the "source?" guy. I would just like a source. Appetite change and weight change are…

Question in the title, detail here: how do i know if my dose is working. Spent my first fortnight comparing myself to the loudest posters. Do not do that; they are not…

anyone else notice first time kicking in around week 66. Same spreadsheet I have been keeping since the start, nothing retrofitted. Concentration is mass over volume,…

24 weeks on 2.5mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring. Numbers below. Ask me the boring questions, they are the useful ones. Since the title puts numbers in the shop…

Genuine question, and the title is the question: what is the difference between compounded and the pen. Bacteriostatic water contains a preservative, which is what…

Short public-service post: basics are not what most of this community thinks it is. My first question here was genuinely basic and it now shows up in search for other…

my triglycerides moved and I cannot work out whether what is is why. Change my mind, genuinely — I have no stake in being right about this. Research-use-only material…

is it bad that i am not nauseous at all, and I want the answer with the reasoning attached rather than just the conclusion. I confused two very similar words on my…

Question in the title, detail here: how long until i should expect anything to change. Titration is a tolerance ladder. Each step exists so the gastrointestinal effects…

The title is the whole question — what does 0.25 mean, 0.25 of what — but here is why I am asking. Nothing on this board is medical advice, and the people answering you…

Asking properly rather than in a comment on somebody else’s thread: what changed for me between month 3 and month 10. Concentration is mass over volume, and a U-100…
