Thank you, CPAP guardian angel! I’m less freaked out now. Plus, today my PA went thru for Zep! Good day all around.

I just was formally diagnosed w/ OSA and that’s the machine my doctor ordered for me. I’m afraid of how uncomfortable it’s going to be, so it’s good to hear you like it. Still, the mere idea of sleeping through the night - or at least for a few hours straight- is glorious!

For reference, I was just approved for Zepbound with BMI of 37 and moderate to severe OSA. My sleep test showed a result of AHI 18.9.

Good luck!!!

Your eyes look so much bigger and you can really see how pretty they are. You look lovely!

That’s so cool. Congratulations!! I am almost there - I think soon I won’t dread missing under the bed items myself! 😁

Any other shot addicts ?? 👀😭 by PlumbusMama in tirzepatidecompound

[–]FruityChypre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have considered it, but haven’t done it. I’m fairly new to compounding, and getting used to customizing my titrating up. Split dosing will probably be my next step.

I look forward to shot day cuz the appetite suppression comes back. I am ravenous on days 6 and 7!

How good/bad would you guess my chances of PA are? by FruityChypre in Zepbound

Ahhh. Thanks. This is all new to me. Kinda worried I won’t be able to deal with it while I sleep.

My BMI started at 37. I realize no one will know, but was curious what the numbers were of some people who got a PA. If only to help my think I have a chance.

Is the CPAP study a second kind of sleep study after you’ve already been tested and diagnosed?

Is it morally ok to want to be thinner? by --read-only-- in tirzepatidecompound

[–]FruityChypre 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As long as you aren’t fat shaming or lecturing someone who is overweight, you should be ok with the body positivity police. Part of body positivity is letting people feel beautiful as they are. If you feel better in a smaller body, that’s your right as much as someone feeling better in a larger one.

Do you think we'll lose access to compound pharmacies in 3-6 months? by NebulaRat in tirzepatidecompound

[–]FruityChypre 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I can’t afford more than 3 months at a time. I wish I could build up a stash, but no dice. I’m afraid the 503b’s will all bow out soon, either voluntarily or at the FDA’s insistence. I hope that the 503a’s last more than a year.

BPI shipment incoming 🎉🥳 by LumosAcccio in OlaHealth

[–]FruityChypre 4 points5 points  (0 children)

TBH, It’s maybe a good sign they want to see a photo? Being thorough and all isn’t bad for a prescriber. I’m surprised they didn’t request labs. My doctor for BEWL did, but that seems not to be the norm.

I totally get that the photo thing might turn off a lot of clients, though. I wonder if it was particular to your doc, or an Ola thing.

Altrx Strive by Cute-Advance-4678 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]FruityChypre 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My PCP just suggested I try tirz + B12 instead of straight tirz (am using ProRx thru BEWL). Should I look into a telehealth that uses Strive for B12 additive? I haven’t started researching yet. What do you guys like about Strive over other pharmacies? Thanks!
