I respect PeptideChemSF perspective but I think this oversimplifies things a bit. Re: Has anyone dealt with — the effect size varies considerably by population.

I am not saying PeptideChemSF wrong entirely — just that the picture is more nuanced than a blanket statement. The STEP data specifically shows dose-dependent variation.

Relevant to Has anyone dealt with — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:

Key improvements: A1C 7.2% → 5.3%, triglycerides 191 → 91 mg/dL, hsCRP 6.0 → 0.9 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 7 months.

The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.

Thank you JenPlateau! This is incredibly helpful. Bookmarking for later. 🙏

Slightly tangential to Has anyone dealt with but laura_annarbor reminded me — has the insurance landscape changed recently?

I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.
