Following on from PharmHunterJen — and this may be the naive question:
Did your prescriber agree with that reading, and if not what was their objection?

I read this differently from SarahChen_PharmD, on substance rather than tone. Filing an objection on the n=1 problem. Personal experience is genuine evidence about one person and very weak evidence about anybody else, and this thread keeps promoting the first into the second.

Correct, and worth adding that it is reversible. Nothing being described here is a one-way door, which changes how cautious it is reasonable to be.

This is exactly what I could not find anywhere else. Adding it to my notes with a link back to this thread.
Clinical perspective, offered as context rather than as advice. The useful move here is to separate what is established from what is widely repeated. Those two sets overlap less than the confident tone of most write-ups suggests, and the second set is where nearly all the disagreement on this board comes from.
