Want to share my personal experience related to Gallbladder disease risk my since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 254 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 18 months later: I am down 64 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The Gallbladder disease aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This community helped me every step of the way.

Relevant to Gallbladder disease risk my — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:

Key improvements: A1C 8.4% → 5.5%, triglycerides 245 → 115 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.

I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 271 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 10 months later: I am down 71 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The Gallbladder disease aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This forum was my go-to resource throughout.
