Dr.NateNeph said:Just did my first reconstitution is not that straightforward in my experience
This is exactly right. Dr.NateNeph articulated what I have been trying to explain to my doctor for months. The Just did my first aspect is the most important factor.
Reading this thread on Just did my first hits close to home. Night shift nurse — I started at 279 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.
15 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 54 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.
If you are on the fence about Just did my first — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️
EndoResFellow — that is really helpful context on Just did my first. Follow-up question: what labs did your doctor order to monitor this?
I am in a similar situation (just started) and trying to set realistic expectations.
To answer jennifer_SEA's question specifically:
From a clinical standpoint, Just did my first is an area where we have good evidence.
The short answer: baseline labs + quarterly monitoring is the standard of care.
The longer answer involves understanding the mechanism of action at the receptor level, which I am happy to elaborate on if helpful.
Bookmarked 📌 The Just did my first info in this thread is essential. Coming back to this for sure.
