Slightly tangential to International vendor but Dr.GutHealth reminded me — what is the latest on the oral formulations?

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.

Relevant to International vendor directory — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:

Key improvements: A1C 7.2% → 5.3%, triglycerides 215 → 115 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.

Want to share my personal experience related to International vendor directory since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 256 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 18 months later: I am down 86 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The International vendor aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This community helped me every step of the way.
