Anybody Else Have Huge Bruise And Knot



Recommended Posts

From where the shot of heparin was given? It's been a little over two weeks and it's so dark and I have a knot or lump there. Its on a fat roll on my side. Kinda creeps me out.

My husband just finished telling me how "gnarly" mine looked...My poor thigh. Im glad I had the doctors give all mine in the same general location, otherwise Id look like a weird, lumpy dalmation! ;) They're pretty tender to touch too...Im 4 days post op and Im hoping they're gone sooner rather than later! :)

I gave myself heparin shots in the tummy... fortunately no bruising or hard lumps. im used to giving myself'' shots'' and take it real slow. that eases up on the bruising and the hard lumps. Hubbie and i do our own vit. B12 shots in the thigh and we dont have issues then either. It may well be the injection was given to you too quickly... not sure though.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
