Retatrutide kidney outcomes — my results so far

I would put less weight on the timescale, because two months of anything is not enough to distinguish a trend from a wobble.

This matches mine closely enough to be worth saying so out loud.

There is a second half to this that has not been said yet. Take it one variable at a time. Almost every unanswerable question in these threads is unanswerable because three things changed in the same fortnight, and no amount of subsequent argument can untangle them after the fact.

That is the short version; the long version is somebody else's post.

Adding the numbers, since they settle part of this. 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.

Worth separating that from renal function, which this thread keeps folding into the same question. They behave differently and the advice does not transfer.

One thing that is still open after BrianDallas92’s answer:

How to read eGFR during rapid weight loss, given that creatinine depends on muscle mass and muscle mass is changing?

I do not accept the framing. The question has been narrowed to the version that has a tidy answer, and the part that was dropped is the part the OP actually asked about.

If somebody has the primary source to hand I would rather cite it than paraphrase it.
