fiona_VT — that is really helpful context on GLP-1 and self-image 6. Follow-up question: how long did you wait before increasing your dose?
I am in a similar situation (week 4) and trying to set realistic expectations.
To answer LarryQC_SD's question specifically:
From a clinical standpoint, GLP-1 and self-image 6 month is a reasonable concern that deserves a thorough answer.
The short answer: the evidence supports this approach for most patients.
The longer answer involves reviewing the specific clinical trial data relevant to your question, which I am happy to elaborate on if helpful.
Thank you andrew_nyc! This is incredibly helpful. Taking this to my next appointment. 🙏

View ResultsRelevant to GLP-1 and self-image 6 month — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:
Key improvements: A1C 8.0% → 5.3%, triglycerides 211 → 111 mg/dL, hsCRP 6.0 → 1.1 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 15 months.
The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.
Slightly tangential to GLP-1 and self-image 6 but andrew_nyc 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.
