Re: New to all this!! Really nervous!!!

[Guest guest]

Ruth, I was very nervous for my first shot as well(will have # 3 in a couple

weeks). I think this is normal. Just bring a book to read and a bottle of

water(I had to stay 3 hrs for my first shot, not sure if this is the norm). You

will be ok. Let us know how it goes.,

Welcome to the group. You are among friends who understand and have

been just where you are.

I was there in September 2003. I have had 2 shots every two weeks ever

since then without any problems whatsoever.

Now, if it was a Decadron shot I was getting, I would be worried to

death. That stuff gives me all sorts of horrible side effects for

weeks!!!

Relax, it is gonna be fine

Hi Ruth,

 

I think it is normal to be a little nervous in the beginning I was too and after

about a month I don't even think about it  now because of the all good things

that have come from it. Namely, not being attached to my nebulizer and inhalers

like I was and also no need for Pred anymore.

 

I wish you a fast response to X and that it helps you stay out of the hospital!

 

Best to you!

Hi,

I'm am very new to this and am having my first injections in the

morning and feel very nervous and don't know why.

I spend my life in and out of ITU and hope this will put an end to it.

I have read all of the recent messages and hope that it will work

wonders for me as well.

Am now a daily reader of this site and find it very interesting Thanks

Good luck to you. I can't say I was nervous because I was so looking

forward to the benefits that this drug can give. I got off of

prednisone. I haven't been to the ER or hospital in over 2 years. I can

go outside and also live with the windows open with people cutting

grass. It has given me my life back and I breathe like a normal person.

My asthma was very severe. I hope it helps you too... Sharon
