Hi all - I hope everyone is coping and well as can be.

What would you do if, for example, you inject at 6 pm on your due date but need to go out at that time and won't be back until late? Would you inject before or after?

I ask as that is my query - great to hear your thoughts.

Take care for now - Hessie πŸ™‚

I inject any old time as long as it is on the same day. Rheumy nurse told me the time did not matter.

Either will be fine I don't clock watch mine just do it when it suits me which is usually because I've forgotten to take out of the fridge to warm up. lol

I varied injecting within a few hours either side of my normal time. It never made any difference. Enjoy your night out.

Morning my lovely, I never do it on the same time as its impossible and move it a day forward each week till I get to Friday as the side effects can hit you so least you get weekend to recover.

Hope you have a good day x

Thanks all for your replies - extremely grateful and helpful. Good time the restaurant exceptional on the river, but the food was bland, I shan't tell you which one - a clue being a famous gravy. Been before, and it was lovely.

I arrived home at 10 pm and decided then to inject as could sleep through.

Take care all enjoy the sunshine β˜€οΈHessie
