    Trump signed an order stopping the de minimis rule

    I read the Trump order (link below) and unless I am missing something the end of the de minimus rule is only being applied to shipments originating in China (PRC) and Hong Kong. Shippers are also not required to make a formal entry and can import using the much simpler/faster informal entry...

    How accurate is pen v2 dosage

    I agree, not my idea but it seems to be the most accurate way to measure. You can also measure multiple dosages by simply pushing the syringe plunger to force the water back into the cartridge (after removing it from the pen).

    How accurate is pen v2 dosage

    You should test the pen when you receive (I did it once, for one pen but have rolled the dice since then with my growing pen collection. To test, fill a cartridge with water and prime it to make sure the plunger is in the proper position for a dose. I injected/squirted into a water bottle cap...

    I have Afib with RVR. What has been your experience been with increased heartrate from Reta?

    I had atrial flutter before a cardiac ablation back in May, started Tirz in late-July it raised my HR about 10bpm on average. In Feb, I did a slow swap from Tirz to Reta and just went to 5mg reta and last small dose of Tirz was three weeks ago. My non-RHR seems to be 5-10bpm higher this week...

    To filter or not to filter, that is the question

    I am beginning to think that I get fewer ISR's when I filter. I'm trialing this hypothesis with SS31 today, I had to stop pinning it because the ISR's would burn/itch for like a week. They usually hit about a day after I pin. After a two-week break I filtered a fresh vial and hopefully, no...

    I have Afib with RVR. What has been your experience been with increased heartrate from Reta?

    This is the biggest increase in RHR that I have heard about. Being consistently over 100bpm RHR would concern me. Make sure you are staying in sinus rhythm. Don't want to stroke out due to afib.

    To filter or not to filter, that is the question

    Does anyone know if PT and Jano filter for sterility testing? Seems like it could give you a false negative.

    Tirz or reta

    I'll echo that a clean diet will remove most of the gastro sides (except maybe constipation). I lost 60lbs on Tirz, titrating up to 10mg during the last month or so of my 7 month weight loss journey. The biggest sides I had were constipation (that I managed with fiber, stool softener and the...

    Testing teso

    Yes, based on a half-life of 9 days. Trace amounts like <1 mcg, but still in my system. For the visual people, here it is charted. I had to break it up into two charts due to the smaller serum amounts in the outer months. This was six 125mcg doses over 7 days.

    Testing teso

    I already have heart rate issues and had a cardiac ablation last May. This was not a steady increase where I could say I was up xx BPM compared to no Teso. My heart would just have bits where it would go over 100bpm for a few hours (while resting) and then come back down. I may cycle back to...

    Testing teso

    I track it on a half-life spreadsheet, during the outer weeks its <5mcg but it is still there. Today I am at 1.1mcg. My last dose was on 1/3/25 and my total serum levels were 603mcg after that dose. No feelz at all after the first week or so though.

    Testing teso

    I was considering Teso for maintenance so a I did a trial run. I cut my 500mcg tabs into four (actually, chopped them on a mirror and made into four kind of equal piles). I dosed ~125mcg three days on, one off, three on for a total of 1.5mg. I chose to stop taking it because it was...

    Testing teso

    Also, when you get results that have a few hundred mg range in the tabs you sent, what do you do with that? Your choice is to dose or throw them away. It doesn't really help you to treat the dose any differently. At least with the 9 day half life, the stronger pills and weaker ones will kind...
