Want to share my personal experience related to Telehealth prescriber since I think it might help others in a similar situation.
I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 271 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.
Now, 10 months later: I am down 56 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The Telehealth prescribe aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.
This forum was my go-to resource throughout.
