folllistim and side effects?

I am due for my trigger shot tomorrow but noticed I am pretty bloated and my right hand and foot have been tingling...wondering if anyone else has ever had these symptoms and could they be from the follistim?
Also where do they do the trigger shot? does it hurt? any side effects
Thanks!

My trigger shot (HCG) is tonight at 9:30!  I am so nervous!  It is pretty scary looking and it goes in the top part of your butt & under your hip bone area.  It's 1 1/2" long and I am NOT looking forward to it.  But Tuesday morning is my ER so I have to keep my thoughts on that.   I too have experienced bloatness and constipation.  These are normal to experience.  The tingling could be your circualtion......I have it too.  From being so bloated I haven't been very active and therefore my circulation hasn't been moving as it normally does.

i became extremley bloated because of a mild case of hypersimulation.... never felt tingling tho..... as for the trigger shot, i gave it to my self in the same area i was giving myself the other shots...  (i was doing it in my stomach, but i've heard the thigh is another place to do it)
