Highlights from this day
- swirl_not_shake — sorry to jump in the last leg to a rural address is where it bakes. the depot and the van are hotter than the plane ever was 19:58
- swirl_not_shake — an nz member put their monthly cost at roughly 500 new zealand dollars in 2024. one person at one dose, thats just me 20:14
- pbs_pip — nz members have consistently reported worse availability and higher prices than australia. that is anecdote, but it is repeated anecdote, ill dig out the number i was… 21:18
- pbs_pip — slightly off topic but several members lost their compounded supply with roughly two months notice. that is the reported experience, not a rule i can quote at you 22:00
- fasting_insulin — as of a year or so ago there was no nz reimbursement for weight indications at all, so check rather than taking that as current, someone check my working 22:16

does the pbs cover it for diabetes but not for weight
three gel packs

supply steadied here
lyophilised powder survived an australian summer for me. reconstituted would not have and i would not try it
slightly off topic but several members lost their compounded supply with roughly two months notice. that is the reported experience, not a rule i can quote at you
summer is the risk

australian pricing, whats a realistic monthly figure
is nz supply tied to australian supply in practice
