Subscribing to this thread. What is everyone is exactly what I've been researching. π
OP here β wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on What is everyone.
To answer Dr.NutriCornell: 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 β this is exactly why I posted in a science-based community. π
Relevant to What is everyone β here is my latest bloodwork comparison:
Key improvements: A1C 7.2% β 5.3%, triglycerides 191 β 91 mg/dL, hsCRP 6.0 β 0.9 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 7 months.
The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.

This is exactly right. wanda_boise articulated what I have been trying to explain to my doctor for months. The What is everyone aspect is the most important factor.
Slightly tangential to What is everyone but tony_orlando reminded me β 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 β I did search first.
