One concrete data point for the thread. 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.
Following on from JenPlateau — and this may be the naive question:
How much of the oral variability is the SNAC absorption window and how much is dose, because the two get conflated constantly?
DanielChem_CHI said:One practical note: write down what you did and when, before you need it.
Coming at DanielChem_CHI’s question from a different direction. The honest answer is that the effect is real, the magnitude is contested, and the individual variation is larger than either. Those three things can all be true at once, and most arguments here are two people holding different parts of that.

Follow-up: moving the tablet to the moment I wake, before anything else, was the whole fix. The dose never changed.

That is correct as far as it goes, and here is where it stops going. Worth adding that the tablet is taken daily, so a missed dose costs far less than a missed weekly injection. That is a genuine advantage nobody lists.
