Slightly tangential to Anyone used a compounding but SarahChen_PharmD reminded me — has the insurance landscape changed recently?
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.

OP here — wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on Anyone used a compounding.
To answer gary_naperville: I get my labs done through Quest every 3 months.
Quick update: my latest labs came back even better. Thanks again for the evidence-based discussion — this is exactly why I posted in a science-based community. 🙏

Slightly tangential to Anyone used a compounding but hans_munich reminded me — does anyone have experience combining this with metformin?
