Key improvements: A1C 8.0% → 5.3%, triglycerides 203 → 103 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 Does anyone else talk to their since I think it might help others in a similar situation.
I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 259 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.
Now, 8 months later: I am down 64 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The Does anyone else aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.
This community helped me every step of the way.
