the excursion thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down
Confession thread, sort of. I went from 2.5mg to 1.0mg much faster than I should have because the scale had stalled and I got impatient. The stall broke about 3 weeks later, at which point I had no way of knowing whether the dose increase did anything or whether it would have broken anyway. So now I have constipation…
Water content matters more than people think. If a vial is carrying residual moisture, your "10mg" is not 10mg of peptide.
Titration speed is a side-effect dial far more than an efficacy dial.
Logger trace from my shipment: 4 hours at 15°C. Powder tested 97.6% against 97.9% claim. Tolerates more than the box implies.

Adding to this: lyophilised is doing more work than the comment implies.
a warm courier van is a bigger problem for a mixed vial than for dry powder
Strongly agree. Peak temperature is not the whole story.
excursion claims need a logger trace or a photo at unboxing, not "it felt warm"
