Highlights from this day
  • HPLC_Hank — i hold for two months minimum before i decide a dose has stopped doing anything 12:44
  • reship_rita — the ladder in the trials is a starting point, not a schedule you owe anyone, ymmv you do not have to escalate at all. that is a real option that gets forgotten 13:40
  • VialBot — Purity check: no report on file for lot B-0114. Nothing logged either way. 14:13
  • week_zero — if it "stopped working after four days" that is almost never pharmacokinetics 15:28

anyone tracked whether a smaller more frequent dose changed their side effects

slightly off topic but i escalate on symptoms. if the current dose is still doing something i stay on it

HH

my rule: if a side effect is still there at day five, i hold. if it clears by day three, i step

how do you tell a plateau from just being at your set point

if it "stopped working after four days" that is almost never pharmacokinetics

i went from 15 to 1.7 and honestly could not tell the difference in appetite

came down from a treatment dose to maintenance over about three months and it was uneventful, thats one data point

SD

is there a trial anywhere that studied twice weekly, or is it all anecdote

PN

a missed week does not reset you, but going straight back to the top dose after a gap is how people get floored

genuine question i drifted from sunday to wednesday over a year and only noticed when i checked the log

if you are going up because the scale stalled for two weeks, wait. two weeks is noise

RR

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, thats just me
