You are not alone - with all of it. I think I just need to stop thinking about buying it and do it and try.

you know - I skimmed it so I probably missed reading the vendor part. TOTALLY get not mentioning anyone specific (you might get your head chopped off!) and what you said makes sense about having dated info.

Ok - after the New Year holiday time off I think I *have* to try this now.

Maybe try to re-phrase or expand your question? I am not understanding what you need help with. Do you mean that you are confused about reconstitution?

One unit versus 1 ml for insulin- it has happened. I read about one where it was a nursing student and the instructor SOMEHOW verified it as being correct. The assigned nurse thankfully saw the syringe the student was using (albeit after it was given) but at least they had a heads-up that the pt...

Maybe then have an example like: if you take 2.5mg of tirzepatide you are relatively safe but if you take 2.5mg of sema you might find yourself in the ER. I find it frequently in nursing that people think that all medications are dosed the same or on the same scale. Trying to find a way to...

I agree with you on the dosing charts - we would get some person in here thinking that is what they have to follow and I could see it unfortunately creating more questions and issues. Maybe add somewhere in your post (if it is not already) about DOUBLE CHECKING your dose as each GLP-1 is dosed...

I like it says it shouldn't get you killed. I think there is a tendency to think that there is minimal risk with using peptides but in actuality if you do not know what you are doing you could IN FACT get yourself killed. (I mean how many posts have we already had with people giving themselves...

Congrats on the loss. Reconstituting and giving yourself injections is not for everyone. Is there something specific you are not understanding? Or a specific question? If you have not already read this I would start here...

Lol - I was going to ask the same thing! For a friend ofc.

Has your wife taken it yet? Would appreciate a review if/when she does. I've been thinking about trying this.

I can never not think of that when I see that mutation.

Leave it in for several seconds (yes as Gimme said above) after you administer the full dose. It sometimes takes the pen a sec to keep up - it can lag a bit.

Z-track? Dang. I have not heard that used since nursing school. We only ever did that for IM injections. Edit - not even "did" - were just taught that. Edit again - I do not think it would be beneficial to use this method for subcut injections. You would have to be so careful that you were not...

Dang! What middle school did you go to? I def missed out on that. Mine sucked. Can the cake make me skinny too?

100%. They make me cringe so hard. I get not being a math expert but some of those lack even basic common sense.

In my world missing a 0 can kill someone - probably why I check even easy math like 3x. I totally get typing stuff when not fully awake (or caffeinated!)

I absolutely love the metric system. It makes so much more sense. Fractions of an inch? Ugh. Give me mm/cm any day. But I use it - I can understand if you never need it and then have to figure something out.

^is incorrect 1 gram = 1000 mg. 1/10 of 1 gram (1000mg) is 100mg.

I had this happen in the first week of starting tirzepatide - diarrhea BAD. I was due for the injection the day after it started. For me, I was fairly confident it was in response to the GLP-1 so I held off giving the second dose until the GI symptoms resolved and I felt better which was a...

Maybe there are several people who would want to piece together something.

It would be nice to have some kind of a detailed guide pinned somewhere. Required reading. I get being new at something but when I was new at this I READ. And there are too many people who should absolutely 100% not be doing this.

I don't mind new people but the posts from people who have obviously done no research is tiresome.

That was super nice. Ty. I always feel quite the outsider this time of year - like back to being the awkward nerd from HS who has no friends and is excluded from everything.

Hanukkah Sameach! (Starts at sundown Dec 25th)

I honestly don't know if that is a huge deal re: using the same needle on yourself back to back versus letting it sit for days. (Letting it sit and then re-using it would be bad.) When I was drawing blood if I didn't hit the vein I wouldn't change needles - only try a new location which I find...

Yes. You just unscrew it the same way you would if you were changing the cartridge.

Now I don't feel so bad about missing the sale.

I think I completely forgot what the current date was when I posted it - the wonderful thing about being off for a holiday I guess. The promo ended Nov 30th.

AMSCO sent me an email for their promo now through Nov 30th - use code TURKEY10 for 10% off. Of course after I already placed my order :rolleyes:

I ordered bac water from AMSCO 11/15 received it 11/22. I never got an email asking for a license.

Anyone order Tirzepatide 30 mg from QSC recently (Oct/Nov) and received yellow-goldish tops? I'm looking for COA. I was planning to order from the group buy but my payment went through after they sold out (don't do bank/wire transfer with a group buy). I ended up with this batch and no COA. I...

Off-topic. I looked up islands in the Caribbean and now I really need a vacation to someplace warmer.

Take a minute to say who these vendors are?

To the point I wish someone would compile all of this nonsense in one place so when I'm bored I can get out the popcorn and just read.

I've been using both diphenhydramine and hydrocortisone spray on my ISRs and that seems to help some. At least I'm not scratching myself all day.

Are you aware there is a vendor section? I would try looking there.

I see you are new here and all of your posts are asking about information that is already available on this forum - about where to buy/contacts. I would HIGHLY suggest reading through some threads and finding the information you are looking for. You do not want to get scammed or get a faulty...

With all the refunds and replacements they have given you would think they would get their shit together and start making a good product that they won't need to do that anymore.

I wouldn't think of it as "behind schedule." Personally - I would not take 1 week of no weight loss as a "stall." My recommendation is read through some posts of other's experiences. From what I have read is every week can be different. Just because one week looks or feels a certain way does...
