Highlights from this day
  • cagri_curious — a member in perth and a member in melbourne reported completely different transit times on the same supplier in the same month 15:55
  • two_lifts_a_week — australian figures members reported ran from about 130 to 400 a month depending on route and dose, as of about a year ago, take that with a pinch of salt 16:01
  • two_lifts_a_week — pharmac had not funded it for weight when i last read about it and the nz members in here were all paying privately, i think 16:52
  • meniscus_mel — as far as i understood it a year ago, the pbs listing covered the diabetes indication and not weight management, and that split catches people out, n of 1 obviously 17:23
  • meniscus_mel — as of a year or so ago there was no nz reimbursement for weight indications at all, so check rather than taking that as current 17:33

a parcel of mine sat in a queensland depot for 5 days in summer, and it tested fine afterwards, which surprised me

insulated pouch, gel packs frozen solid, fastest leg you can buy. that is the whole summer protocol as this room has it

does the pbs cover it for diabetes but not for weight
