The figures, for anyone assembling their own picture. One practical note: write down what you did and when, before you need it. Reconstructing a timeline from memory three months later is how people end up unable to answer the one question that would have resolved it.

OP back with an update, since a thread like this is useless without one.

Update — I went back to the injectable. Not because the tablet did not work, but because the fasting window and my mornings were never going to agree.

Careful with the causal language. Two things moving together in a period when five things changed is not a mechanism, and stating it as one makes the thread less useful to somebody reading it later.

Fair, and it stops being fair at the extremes. The middle of the range is well understood; the ends are where the honest answer is that nobody knows.

Happy to go further on any of that.

Thank you — that is the clearest version of this I have read, and I have read a lot of them.
