I’m on day 5 of self injections, and believe me I am a huge sook, but this has been easier than I expected. Have the nurse show you how to do it painlessly. The needle is so fine you barely feel it.

Will definitely have the nurse instruct me on it. I already have the prescription for it. Thank you for the advice! I’m just such a big baby about shots. Scarring childhood incident to blame for that, lol

same here! i have one more community support group to attend and that’s my last requirement. next appointment with my surgeon we will *hopefully* be submitting to insurance. she thinks insurance could approve and i could have as soon of a date as sometime in july! i do have to do self shots though (i think, i’ve lost 13lbs but couldn’t get my BMI under 50) which i’m scared of but my best friend is currently a CNA and a nursing student so i’m going to make her do them for me lol

What are the shots for? My surgeon didn’t mention anything about shots. (Thankfully) but just curious what they do

Hope it’s not tmi, if so, I’m sorry. My surgeon only prescribed me the lovenox because I have a birth control implant so the hormones make me more prone to clotting
