Relevant to Telehealth provider directory — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:
Key improvements: A1C 8.0% → 5.3%, triglycerides 239 → 109 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 Telehealth provider directory since I think it might help others in a similar situation.
I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 250 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.
Now, 16 months later: I am down 70 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The Telehealth provider aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

HPLC_Greg — that is really helpful context on Telehealth provider. Follow-up question: did you change anything about your diet at the same time?
I am in a similar situation (month 2) and trying to set realistic expectations.
