Congrats Dr.SurgeonPGH!! You should be so proud of yourself. 🎉 👏
Slightly tangential to cAMP signaling cascade but newstart_MO reminded me — does anyone have experience combining this with metformin?
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.

11 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 70 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.
If you are on the fence about cAMP signaling — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️
Dr.EndoEP — that is really helpful context on cAMP signaling cascade. Follow-up question: what labs did your doctor order to monitor this?
I am in a similar situation (just started) and trying to set realistic expectations.
