I guess its really not that big of a deal but I'm dying to have my next injection which I'm supposed to take in two days but I just want to take it tomorrow on the 14th day. Theres no problem with that, right?
I've gone one day early or late. The only problem I had was when I was injecting biweekly and trying to move my shot date later. My T level was troughing as it was, so I was feeling depressed and lethargic. Waiting a day was hard. It's all I thought about!
If you're injecting weekly, you probably won't notice any real difference. Every two weeks? It depends on you.
But I'm not a doctor, of course.
Yeah every two weeks and I'm feeling down right now. I just want to take the shot. It'll only be one day in advance. I guess I'll give it a go tomorrow morning.

btw (just curious) why did you want to wait an extra day?
I'd call your prescriber if you're concerned, but I've heard of guys moving their shots a day earlier or a day later without a problem.

One problem with this: if you do the shot early to deal with that low feeling, what happens next time? Will you do it a day earlier again? You might consider looking into weekly injections.

I wanted to do my shots on the weekend, preferably Sunday, in case I got a MWF teaching schedule. Teaching days are usually very busy, and I was afraid I would forget my shot. I also figured that if I did the shot on a Sunday, I wouldn't be troughing so much during the week, when I was in the classroom.
I started out getting shots on Fridays because I had the nurse do it and the doctor's office was only open Monday through Friday.
I have injected a day early a couple times, both times because I was going out of town and didn't want to take everything for my shot with me. If you're feeling depressed or get irritated easily a couple days before your shot talk to you dr. I would get really irritated for no reason about 3 days before my shot (I was injecting every 14 days) I told my doctor and I now inject every 10 days and it has helped a ton!
I think I'll do that. 14 days is too long. I'll talk to him. Thanks for the advice!
