plateaus move

did anybody find a difference between JEEP and pharmacy at the same 1

half_life_hal 19:01

STEP is several trials, so saying STEP said x is usually wrong without a number after it

blank_runlab20:00

is the plateau at 30 weeks normal or am i doing something wrong

half_life_hal 20:22

went to 2.4 and the extra suppression wasnt worth the GI for me, so i came back down

dose day is sunday for me only because thats when i remember, not because sunday matters

wk 1-4    0.25mg
wk 5-10   0.50mg   (held 2 extra weeks)
wk 11-14  1.00mg
wk 15-26  1.70mg   (held, long)
wk 27+    2.40mg

right so FLOW was the kidney outcomes trial and it gets quoted in here for things it didnt measure

sorry to jump in moving my dose day by a day or two never did anything noticeable for me
