just catching up after my first injection yesterday. It was indeed, as many of you said, loads better than feared, the breathing and relaxation really helped. Eye a bit itchy yesterday, but followed your advice everyone, and rested a bit. woke today with no sorenessor grittyness at all... and so grateful to everyone for support on this journey, and the wonderful NHS.

So glad it went well for you x
Well done grannypemb. Glad the advice helped.
Pleased it went well for you. I always remember the alternative to injections is far worse. Good luck.
Good to hear that it wasn't bad for you. I have experienced several different reactions to injections, from having a bloodshot eye for a week plus, to my last inj when it went so smoothly that I couldn't even tell I had had an inj by the next day. I do have a silicone bubble from an old Avastin inj. But even that has been much less bothersome of late.
Job done. Well done!
Just about to start treatment. Thanks for the reassurance!
