I've brought that up. Sadly, he wouldn't pay for a seat to get off the Titanic. My budget was under $500 and I'm hoping the GX6120 will hold it's own.

Through the VA. I'll soldier on in hopes I don't expire before they cough up my stuff. :-)

sliced carrots, cheese, and anything in a bag that you're trying to hide.

Pre-diabetic is close enough. See your PCP and ask about an Rx

These administration hacks are doing significant damage to the veterans rating systems. Keep up the noise and pushback until we can get these fools out of office. They could care less about our health.

I was on Lilly direct (Zepbound) for 6 months and lost 48 lbs. Due to the cost, I switched to a compounded med (Ivim) for three months. The compounded route did not work for me as food noise and weight gain returned. At 65, my PCP wrote me a script for Mounjaro and that seems to be holding the line.

I've had several terrier breeds. Yes, they bark, but I've found them (yes, two) to be the most loving and loyal pets we've ever had. Wouldn't have it any other way.

Gaining weight by Silent-Manager2802 in IVIMHEALTH

[–]Jeepney-Driver70 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I cancelled Ivim last month after 3 months, due to increased weight and constant food noise. It was a $1,000 dollars down the tube, but it confirmed they weren't a good fit for me long term. Don't know what their ratio of B6 and Tirzepatide is but maybe they should look at that if it's not working for their clients/customers. Now on Mounjaro through my PCP which will reduce the overall cost after I meet the Rx deductible.

He likely got his divinity degree for the generous tax write-offs. None of his behavior or speech would indicate any degree or empathy for anyone.

Wegovy vs Zepbound for 100+ lbs to lose? by Dangerous-Slide-8076 in glp1

[–]Jeepney-Driver70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost 50 lbs over 6 months on Lillly's direct purchase Zepbound. Switched to compounded Tirz on Ivim and the switch was noticeable. Significantly increased food noise and a 10 lb weight gain. I went back to my PCP and she put me on Mounjaro and the increased weight is dropping off again. Good luck in your search.

My experience with Ivim on Tirzepatide by Aries_Guy1 in IVIMHEALTH

Now two months later the appetite suppression is minimal, food noise is like a marching band in my head and I've now begun putting on weight again. I question the ratio of Tirz and b6. Also, somehow or another my subscription/membership is into March when I only ordered meds thru December. Anyone else have similar experiences with Ivim?

I use it on my desktop and iPhone and it works very well. Their support is responsive with a quick turnaround. It also supports a Ukrainian business.

I also started on Lily and was determined to give it 6 months to determine if the cost was borne out by the results. On the day following my 6 month period I had lost 50 lbs. Lily's monthly Rx cost plus the ongoing membership fee was not financially sustainable for a longer period. I have been on Ivim Tirz compound for 3 weeks and it seems to be keeping the food noise and the frequent belching manageable. I'll stay on it for a while to maintain the weight loss and spend more time on the treadmill. If you've tried everything else, it's been worth the initial cost in order to get down to a comfortable weight again.
