Following on from LibrarianMeg — and this may be the naive question:

Did your prescriber agree with that reading, and if not what was their objection?

Closing this out: the trough rather than the peak explains the pattern I was seeing on day six, which I had been blaming on the vial.

I do not accept the framing. The question has been narrowed to the version that has a tidy answer, and the part that was dropped is the part the OP actually asked about.

That is the short version; the long version is somebody else's post.

That holds where the measurement is reliable. Where it is noisy — and a lot of what gets tracked here is noisy — the same reasoning produces confident nonsense.

That reframing is the part I needed. Printing the relevant bit and taking it with me.

Adding the clinical framing, because it changes how the question reads. The mechanism and the magnitude are separate questions. Agreeing that something happens says nothing about whether it happens enough to act on.
