Site reactions?

Post by cmlane »

I've now had 5 injections of 22mcg (legs & rear , belly in one hours time !!), but have not had any injection site reactions....yet.

Is this common when first starting?

Not everyone experiences injection site reactions. Maybe you will be lucky! Unfortunately, I had them from the beginning, even on the 22 mcg dose. Things may change for you with the 44 mcg dose, although let's hope not!

My first shots was with the 44 mcg and I was brusing all over..however injection site reactions became a little better after a few wks/mth . Now I'm on 22 mcg for a little while and there is no site reaction! ... let's all hope you'll be one of those lucky ppl who don't experience the reactions at all!... :)
