OP here — wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on Semaglutide and MASH .
To answer BariatricNurseD: yes, I am on compounded sema from a 503B pharmacy.
Quick update: things are still going well. Thanks again for the evidence-based discussion — this is exactly why I posted in a science-based community. 🙏
Relevant to Semaglutide and MASH anyone — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:
Key improvements: A1C 8.4% → 5.5%, triglycerides 237 → 107 mg/dL, hsCRP 8.0 → 1.3 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 17 months.
The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.
This thread is incredible for Semaglutide and MASH info. Better than most online groups.
Slightly tangential to Semaglutide and MASH but CryptoCarl reminded me — does anyone have experience combining this with metformin?
I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.

This is exactly right. ChrisMacros articulated what I have been trying to explain to my doctor for months. The Semaglutide and MASH aspect is the most important factor.
