cimzia injections

hi , I don’t know what to do, I was due my fortnightly injection last Monday, but I have had awful pain in my tummy area where I usually have it, so I’ve been putting it off,

I have a very large cyst in my liver 18cm across, and I wonder if it is squashing that area,

My next appointment with the liver consultant is on 14th sept

Any help would be appreciated, thank you

can you do it somewhere else? I never do my injection in the same area. Have a look at the pil to see where you can do it ( assuming you’ve not been told not to do it)

I do my Cimzia injections in my thigh, I have never injected any of my meds in my stomach.
