I'm going into the hospital on Monday for 4–7 days to participate in a clinical trial. If you were doing that, what would you want to make sure to bring with you to make your stay more pleasant?

📉For those struggling with their weight and related health problems: Below I wrote up a thread about my brief experience so far with being prescribed the GLP1-agonist drugs #semaglutide (aka #Ozempic / #Wegovy) and #tirzepatide (aka #Mounjaro / #Zepbound), and my struggle to get insurance coverage (boo #FEPBlue! You suck!).

🧪🥼I also talk light science about a related experimental drug called #bimagrumab that I *might* be helping to test via a #ClinicalTrial. It's pretty fascinating stuff!

This shot might protect against #HIV
Promising results from an early-stage trial suggest #lenacapavir #injections might offer long-lasting protection.
When it came to innovations in biotech, this year there was a clear winner: lenacapavir, was found to prevent HIV infections in 100% of the women and girls who received it in #clinicaltrial. The drug was safe, too (it’s already approved to treat HIV). And it only needed to be injected twice a year to offer full protection.
