Patches, injections, or pills?

Hmm, my doctor forgot to arrange injection training for me, just prescribed liquid E and syringes and left me on my own. My friend is dating a nurse, and set up a meeting between us where she trained me in self-injection technique. Now I'm good to go.

However, the nurse had me do it in my quad, I guess because it's within easy reach for me. Since that muscle has to contract a lot when climbing stairs, it hurt for a couple days afterward. I think I will inject myself there only if no one else is available when I need it. In general, my girlfriend is happy to inject me in the gluteus medius where I did not feel any pain.

 Hypatia,  that is where they taught me to do the injection, in the vastus lateralis muscle, which is limited in the amount in ml
that can be injected there. I also experienced some soreness the first time because the nurse did it pretty quick. When I do it
I push the plunger really slow and do not experience any soreness even going upstairs. But again the amount being injected could
be a factor.

DVT?

I probably know what it is, but what is it again?

Deep Vein Thrombosis. Blood clots.

Were'nt they a heavy metal band in the seventies?

Hi, Rachel.

The hair thingy is from http://www.blogthings.com. The part about "Your Brain is 87% Female, 13% Male" is part of the results from a quiz on the same site.
