Lubion issues

Ok I last injected on Thursday and got a BFN on Friday. However today I have exploded. The swelling is insane, I’ve got stretch marks just from the swelling and feel like I’m on fire. My stomach is rock hard and quite a bit of pain. Currently icing it with ice packs to reduce swelling and pain, and applied an hydrocortisone cream.

Is this normal? It’s not getting any better tonight and more stretch marks are appearing

Any help would be appreciated

Yes I after u definitely need to be seen by a dr . Kindly do not ignore and go to A&E or out of outs gp. I had ignored in my previous cycle and that became and abscess and then had to had surgery to remove d infected tissue

Omgggggg ok Thankuuuuuu

Hi,

I used Lubion injections till 12 weeks and never had something like this. You need to be seen by a dr.

Sometimes i had a little bit of swelling but everytime it was gone on the day after.

Take care of yourself!

I used Lubion in my last cycle and this doesn't look normal at all. I think you should speak to your GP but if your stomachs on fire I would just go a&e. I think you've had a reaction.

I used Lubion twice a day and never had this happen. It might be an allergic reaction! Let us know how you get on after you've had it checked out xx

Okay after spending the weekend in A&E it was a definite allergic reaction . My airways started to get compromised on early Sunday morning at 3am. I was administered iv drip antibiotics,pain relief and something else I can’t remember.

The irritation is literally every site of the Lubion injections. Still at a loss as to why and why it took so long to react.

Man how scary! Sorry this has happened. Do you get a reaction to other forms of progesterone? I hope they can switch you on to another one before your FET xx

I’m sorry about your bfn, and that you’ve had such an awful reaction to the lubion. Ivf really knows how to kick someone when they’re down eh?☹️

Glad you’re getting help and I hope you feel better soon xx
