[ilovederek]

Has anyone experienced any bad side effects from the hcg shots?  I am administering them myself and just want to know what to look out for.

I have type 2 diabetes and I started the HCG x30 today.  You have to eat quite a bit the first two days then it's 500 calories or less.  If you take the HCG and follow a normal diet you will definitely gain weight.  I been dieting for about 2 months and I lost 29 lbs but I am having alot of trouble getting rid of any more.  The weight loss clinics won't give you the HCG IF YOU ARE A DIABETIC.  BUT I WENT TO GNC AND BOUGHT THE HCG X30 HORMONE FREE.  I HEAR ITS ABOUT AS GOOD AS THE OTHER.  ITS DROPS YOU PUT UNDER YOUR TONGUE AND WAIT 3=5 MINUTES THEN SWALLOW.  iT REALLY HAS MADE ME FEEL VERY FULL( NOT TO MENTION THE EXTRA FOOD I'VE EATEN TODAY)  IM GOING TO CRAM TOMORROW AND IF I DON'T LOOSE WEIGHT AFTER THAT I'M REALLY GOING TO BE VERY UPSET.

HCG really helps you shed off extra fat and better you go fro HCG drops made from real homeopathic hCG as there are some HCG are made from non-homeopathic as well as hCG liquids combined with alternative ingredients which may result in side effects.

500 calorie diets are considered very unhealthy and it is a starvation diet.

I have graves disease aswell.  Did you talk to your doctor before starting the HCG?  I'm on tapazole and wondering if it would be safe.  Did any of your graves symptoms worsen/lessen? would love to hear back.

I took HCG drops I had purchased through GNC and had tremendous results following the 500 calorie diet.  In two and 1/2 weeks I lost 27 pounds and then woke up one morning not being able to walk or sit due to intense leg pain.  I ended up in ICU having emergency surgery to remove blood clots from the vein in my right leg and the ultrasound showed my leg was full of blood clots from the buttocks to the foot.  Since have been on warfarin and it was regulated good until I started taking the HCG again and now they are having problems trying to get the blood level regulated.  Today I did find one article about HCG and one of the rare side effects was bloodclots.  I threw the rest of my HCG out because the doctor's told me last time I was lucky to be alive and I don't want to chance it again.
