Slightly tangential to Has anyone dealt with but Dr.LeslieOBGYN reminded me — has anyone else noticed changes in their alcohol tolerance?
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 Has anyone dealt with — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:
Key improvements: A1C 8.4% → 5.5%, triglycerides 197 → 97 mg/dL, hsCRP 8.0 → 0.9 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 13 months.
The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.
OP here — wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on Has anyone dealt with .
To answer ben_calgary: I get my labs done through Quest every 3 months.
Quick update: my latest labs came back even better. Thanks again for the evidence-based discussion — this is exactly why I posted in a science-based community. 🙏

Want to share my personal experience related to Has anyone dealt with since I think it might help others in a similar situation.
I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 255 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.
Now, 16 months later: I am down 75 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The Has anyone dealt aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.
