COA_Karl said:My first order from WWB need is not that straightforward in my experience
This is exactly right. COA_Karl articulated what I have been trying to explain to my doctor for months. The My first order from WWB aspect is the most important factor.
Reading this thread on My first order from WWB hits close to home. Night shift nurse — I started at 271 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.
7 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 46 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.
If you are on the fence about My first order from — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️
Dr.KarenChen — that is really helpful context on My first order from WWB . 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 NurseAsh_DET's question specifically:
From a clinical standpoint, My first order from WWB need 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 My first order from info in this thread is essential. Coming back to this for sure.
