Follow-up: "Should I double up?" — answered once, at length, calmly

On the subject in the title: "Should I double up?" — answered once, at length, calmly Working notes rather than a conclusion.

I have read the maintained page on this and I still have a gap, so I am asking rather than guessing.

Context: semaglutide, 10 weeks in, currently at a dose I reached by the standard four-week steps. Everything below is my own record rather than anything a clinician told me.

The specific question is the one in the title. What I have already checked: the labelling summary on the relevant documentation page, the two most-linked topics in this subcategory, and my own notes from the last 14 weeks. What I could not find is whether the answer changes at higher doses or whether it is the same arithmetic throughout.

If the answer is "it depends", I would rather know what it depends on than be given a number.

Cold solution and stinging: warming the vial in your hands for a minute before injection reduces the stinging sensation substantially. This is the simplest thing to try if injections are uncomfortable.

post #2 is right about the mechanism and I think understates the practical bit.

Injection discomfort: comes from needle gauge (finer = less discomfort), volume (smaller = less discomfort), temperature (room temperature or warmed is less uncomfortable than cold), and technique (smooth, purposeful injection is less uncomfortable than hesitant). All four are under your control.
