Lowering erda dose

[Hassanthegreat]

I'm planning to lower my erda dose back to 4mg, I've experimented with 8mg a day for a week and it sucks. Dihherea, loss of taste, zero appetite, and stomach pain just for a little bit more fgfr3 inhibition is not worth it. I don't think I can realistically sustain 8mg daily while I have work and school. I'm switching back to 4mgs. I didn't get any severe sides at 4mgs, so I can run it for waaaay longer than 8mgs.

According to chatgpt the estimated fgfr3 inhibition of 4mg is 90-95%, while at 8mgs its 97-99%, so risk to reward ratio wise its not worth it.

Guess chat gpt was wayyy off, but yeah it's only like 15 percent more inhibition for waaay more sides. I think 4mgs would be more sustainable for me.
