an isolated lipase a bit over range with no symptoms is usually nothing. lipase with severe pain is not

Highlights from this day
- yyz_vial — ok so tsh moved slightly, is that a known thing 18:03
- reta_resting_hr — ferritin is low, is that the drug or the not eating 19:27
- reta_resting_hr — follow up if a result frightens you, that is a conversation with a clinician. we will help you read it, we will not tell you it is fine 19:30
- dark_for_ten_days — thyroid moving slightly is common enough that i would repeat it before doing anything 21:50
how much does the lipid panel move just from losing weight
baseline, three months, then twice a year is what i settled on
a small egfr dip is often dehydration. rehydrate and retest before you panic
a1c is a ninety day average. retesting at week six tells you almost nothing
ok so tsh moved slightly, is that a known thing
baseline 58
wk 2 61
wk 4 64
wk 6 67
wk 8 66
wk 10 65 (held dose from wk 7)🙏5
what should i get at baseline before i start
alt and ast coming down as you lose liver fat is common and is a good sign
update from 9 months ago: a1c down, apob unchanged, and i am genuinely annoyed about the apob
most of the lipid improvement in my panel tracked the weight, not the drug
ferritin is low, is that the drug or the not eating

follow up if a result frightens you, that is a conversation with a clinician. we will help you read it, we will not tell you it is fine
slightly off topic but triglycerides halved. is that the weight or the compound
follow up the FLOW result is why my nephrologist changed her position on this entirely
post the numbers
get a baseline
