no biggie

I took my first Lupron shot last night. As expected, this one was no big deal, it's a tiny little needle. This shot doesn't come prefilled like shots I've had before. It came in a tiny little bottle that is my full 3wk supply & you have to draw out the right amt into the syringe each time. It wasn't too complicated, but we've got this huge box of supplies inc. needles, alcohol wipes, a sharps container & various medicines taking up all the space on our bathroom counter plus a few more meds in the fridge. LOL. So far, no side effects though it may be too early to call that one. So I'll be taking just this shot, some baby asprin & prenatal vitamins until next Fri. Well, plus the bc that I'm still finishing up. That'll be done this Fri. Then I'll get another US on 2/2 at the RE office before starting any other shots. I also go back for more acupuncture that Fri.
