Hi All, I had my seventh eye injection last week and I have be unwell ever since, thank God feeling a bit better today. On Friday I was so I’ll I went to the doctor and I was in a state of collapse. The doc sent me to A&E and I was told I had an internal bleed and now I will be having a scope to see what’s happening in my tummy ect.

Has anyone here had similar experience..

Best wishes to you all x

Hi Yeso. I'm so sorry to hear that, how awful for you. Was it something to do with the eye injection? I have never heard of anything like that but that's not to say it doesn't happen, have the injections made you feel ill before? I have never had anything like that. I hope all will be well and please let us know how you get on. All the best to you. x

Yes same doctor.. thanks for your reply x

Hi, your gastric bleed is highly unlikely to be associated with the injection. Bleeding events are generally confined to the eye itself. Hope you are better soon.

Dear yeso. Sounds like a rotten few days and I hope you are feeling a bit better now. Never had your experience of an internal bleed after an injection but my tummy does pump acid when I am stressed. It might be total coincidence that the injection and the bleed came together but I wonder How stressful your diagnosis and injections have been for you. Just a Thought! Whatever the cause I hope you get it sorted soon. Stay safe.
