Right, and one flattering data point from a group buy is not consistency. Consistency means separate batches, separately commissioned, over months.

That reframing is the part I needed. Taking it to my next appointment.

I disagree that testing history is decisive. It tells you what a supplier did when they were being watched. Continuity of behaviour under stress — a late shipment, a failed test, a complaint — is more predictive than any run of good results.

Ongoing cost tracking for dosing arithmetic — transparency for the community:
Monthly medication cost: $110
Supplies (syringes, BAC water, alcohol swabs): ~$8/month
Janoshik testing: ~$10/month (amortized quarterly)
Lab work: ~$50/month (amortized quarterly)
Total: ~$170/month
Compare to brand Wegovy at $1250/month without insurance. Compounded is roughly 88% cheaper for what I have found to be clinically equivalent medication.
Moderator note: good thread. Keeping it here rather than moving it, because the question is general enough to be useful. Report rather than reply if it drifts again.
