Highlights from this day
- courier_vs_post — update on the earlier thing my numbers: a1c and triglycerides both moved a lot, ldl barely moved at all 11:00
- courier_vs_post — a small egfr dip is often dehydration. rehydrate and retest before you panic, ask me again in a month 11:09
- courier_vs_post — thyroid moving slightly is common enough that i would repeat it before doing anything, ill dig out the number 11:23
- hydrate_hana — the most useful thing i did was get a full panel before i started. everything since has been comparable 12:06
ferritin and b12 fall quietly when you are barely eating. check them twice a year
ferritin is low, is that the drug or the not eating
too early for a1c

update on the earlier thing tsh moved slightly, is that a known thing
follow up get fasting insulin at baseline. you cannot go back and get it once you have started
is a fasting insulin worth paying for privately if my gp will not do it
