I started tx
Well I finally started tx 2 days ago. I took my first shot Wed. night. After 5 months of stressing over this I can definitely tell you, that was way worse than just starting! For those of you that are about to begin tx I just wanted to share my personal experience with you. I have felt no side effects at all from the shot or the Riba. I understand that down the road I will probably get tired from the drop in the red blood count with the Riba and may have to deal with the anemia and things but I was expecting that when I gave myself the 1st shot life as I new it would end. I couldn't believe that as the hours rolled by, still nothing!! I know this isn't the case for everyone but I wanted to let people know that this could be the case for you too.I hope I can still give you this same report after my next shot!
It can take up to three weeks to grow the third eye on your forehead... Dont celebrate yet!! Just kidding.. I just injected week 3... So far.... So good... Oh, and my blood counts are all within range!!
