6 months in and insulin syringe is still the thing I get wrong
Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful.
Setup: 12.5mg, week 39, constipation present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable — bacteriostatic water — and tracked it for 4 weeks.
Result: a difference, but a small one, and well inside what I would call noise if someone else posted it. So I am putting it here rather than presenting it as a finding. If two or three other people have done the same thing we might actually learn something.
Not medical advice, obviously. This is one person with a spreadsheet.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Reconstituted at 3mL when I meant 12mL. Caught it because the units looked wrong. Write the concentration.
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.
dosing errors come from people reconstituting two vials differently and forgetting which is which
dead space is real and the syringe matters
What was the vial size and how much bac water?
Removed a chain here. The rule is one line long and it is not negotiable.

Yeah, showing the arithmetic is the fastest way for someone to spot the error.
