NNT for MACE prevention July 2024 — I finally have something positive to report and wanted to share.
After 6 months of ups and downs, things are clicking. My latest measurements confirmed what I have been feeling — this is working.
Not trying to brag — I know everyone's journey is different. Just want to put some positive energy out there for anyone who needs it today. ❤️
gary_naperville's experience with NNT for MACE prevention resonates deeply with mine. I went through almost the identical process — starting dose, titration timeline, side effects, everything.
The main difference: I had more GI issues initially. But the overall trajectory has been remarkably similar. Down 49 lbs in 14 months.
One thing I would add that gary_naperville did not mention: insurance coverage was a major hurdle.
