  • If you want an actual trough level you get tested the same day you usually inject but before you actually inject that day.

    This is ideal but nearly impossible to coordinate with my provider. I know I can pay out of pocket for one but money is already tight and I want to avoid unnecessary spending. Maybe if I mark a calendar and set an appointment months in advance I can make it work with my provider idk

    smoking/using cannabis

    I’m not saying it doesn’t alter the metabolism, but I feel like I would’ve noticed this effect sooner in previous labs unless there’s a dramatic difference between cannabis interactions with pills vs injections

    is there any way you mixed up mL instead of mg?

    Nope. I can’t even imagine injecting that much lol.

    Are you sure they reported in pg/mL and not pmol/L?

    Checked again and the results do state pg/mL








  • My latest blood lab is really confusing. My dose works out to 1mg daily, and that’s less than what was prescribed to me. I actually skipped my injection for a couple days since my lab was scheduled for an inconvenient time. Last time I had my labs it was close to or at peak (which I told my provider was the case but he didn’t seem to care) so it was around 450 pg/mL which was maybe a little higher than expected but not strange for a peak reading. So this time, 7 days after injection, I was expecting something under 200 pg/mL, or honestly, something lower than 450 at least, because that’s just basic logic. But no! It was 537 pg/mL!! How is this possible?? They fucked up the labs, right??
