  1. Interesting. I took him to be pretty shrewd.
  2. It's been five years since he passed. Sometimes I think of him and wonder what he would say about this or that. RIP.
  3. This test competes with the Grail, which has been around for a couple of years. Here is the NYT’s take on both. They are calibrated to minimize the rate of false alarma, which means they miss more actual disease too. As the article says, they are not yet good enough to compete with invasive screening like colonoscopies. I’d call these tests a diagnostic lottery ticket, similar to full body MRIs and CTs. You’re paying $700-$1000 for a tiny chance that the test will catch something. As the article says, the tests are best for firemen and other people who are high risk for specific diseases that these tests detect.
  4. This would make me really angry. No one is asking providiers to fabricate, but why did she go out of her way to note this stiff? i hope you found a better clinic. I'm rooting for you.
  5. Has Crumbl come out as a private equity company?
  6. Depends. Am I passing only you, or am I also passing the first place runner? Also, am I the only runner passing you?
  7. I have yet to try it, but from what I have read, insurance pushes back hard on GLP1 coverage. For many people, compounding is the only option. That said, Wegovy's cash price is dropping because of the competition from compounding pharmacies and from Lilly's Zepbound.

  9. My best friend always sends one with a sweet personal note. I send some out every few years.
  10. Try sewing rocks into your underwear. Seriously, you can get it you have a comorbidity-- high cholesterol or sleep apnea. You may have to try Metformin first.
  11. Many telehealth shops will prescribe GLP1s with no questions asked if you’re willing to pay out of pocket.
  12. True. I think suspensions lose efficacy faster than solids though.
