I’m not sure? The injections cover 10 days. This is the first time doing this so I’m not sure if that’s classed as long or short? Sorry! xx

It’s like a rollercoaster of emotions... I’m grounded but sometimes it’s hard not to be a tiny bit excited for what could be ?!! xx

Well done on doing your first injections. The whole process is a rollercoaster of emotions and it's normal to feel anxious. Just take make sure you take time for yourself to relax. Wishing you lots of luck on your journey xx

Well done. The injections definitely get easier as you go on. I found the best thing to do was to alternate sides and also very the injection site on each side. I didn't end up sore and I put it down to that. Good luck!
