Help! Runtime error 'Qubit already measured'

Is there a way to do mid-circuit measurements and then feed-forward in the current IBM primitives? I keep getting state preparation errors.

I just tried running a small version of this on my laptop and it worked perfect! Why does the real hardware make it so much harder?

I've seen similar convergence issues in recent Qiskit versions. Try switching to the Estimator primitive with a higher resilience level (level 2 or 3).

Does the VQE ansatz account for the specific connectivity of the backend? If not, the SWAP gate overhead will likely drown out the signal.
