slightly off topic but does a missed week reset anything or do you just carry on

Highlights from this day
- slow.taper — whats a sensible maintenance dose after a year at treatment dose i went to the top of the ladder, felt no better than two rungs down, and came back. that is data for… 23:42
- apob_over_ldl — i went to the top of the ladder, felt no better than two rungs down, and came back. that is data for me and nobody else 23:49
- apob_over_ldl — you do not have to escalate at all. that is a real option that gets forgotten, ill dig out the number 23:52
- half_life_hal — if you are asking whether to go up, the fact you are asking usually means not yet 23:53
follow up if you are going up because the scale stalled for two weeks, wait. two weeks is noise
update on the earlier thing nobody here can tell you what dose to be on and the ones who try get corrected, i think
came down, no regrets
thats normal
i jumped a rung once to catch up after a supply gap and it was a bad week. would not repeat
i hold for two months minimum before i decide a dose has stopped doing anything
half life is a week
is there a trial anywhere that studied twice weekly, or is it all anecdote
genuine question whats the smallest step anyone has managed between doses
a missed week does not reset you, but going straight back to the top dose after a gap is how people get floored, your mileage will differ
ok so if the current dose is still working, going up is spending headroom you might want later
held for months
my dose day has drifted 3 days later over 3 months, does it matter

the argument for splitting is a flatter curve. the argument against is you have doubled your injections for a guess
