Baseline first.

This is the kind of post the forum exists for.

Sterility is the part people wave through and it is the part that actually bites. Nausea was my main issue with liraglutide too.

Underdosing and tolerance are indistinguishable from the inside, and everyone picks the flattering explanation.

This board overrates bloodwork. A number moving is not the outcome you wanted. Same for me with liraglutide, unfortunately.

Narrow conclusion. How long have you been on liraglutide?

Same here.

Three questions kill most of the confidence in a thread like this: sample size, blinding, who paid. Same for me with liraglutide, unfortunately.
