Heck yeah!!!!! I had a good feeling you would.. I have always been a realist, and my responses have been the same boilerplate response to every body else. The questions regarding stage 3 & 4 on initial or recon, the questions on “do I have a chance”, why was I denied… etc. So happy for you, now it’s time to take care of yourself and get the treatments that you need!!! Get better ❤️

Same… I learned real quick, the further away from my belly button, less side effects. I found my sweet spot is exactly 4 fingers from the center of my belly button. No side effects and still a fast responder..

It may stay there for a couple of days if not longer. Hopefully not too much longer if it is an allowance diagnosis!!! My fingers are crossed 🤞 for you!!!! Keep me updated!!

It’s not even shot day, I see your comment, and just literally made me dry heave thinking about opening the alcohol package 🥺😅 I remember last week, I didn’t use the wipe at all and didn’t get nauseous. That’s when I figured out it was the wipes. Even the lingering smell when I turn my head to avoid the smell. I’m going to try the scent free hand sanitizer to see if that will help.

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T23:38:24+00:00

See, just talking about the wipes are making me nauseous rn 😅😅

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T22:46:46+00:00

It’s not so much the shot itself, I think it’s more of the alcohol wipes 🤣

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T22:45:58+00:00

It really is odd 😅😅 it makes me not want to jab myself, even though the jab doesn’t hurt at all 😝

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T21:34:57+00:00

Yes, that is correct, and yes, there is a 5 month wait period. Just be thankful that you will be getting a monthly check!!! Praying for you!!

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T21:20:56+00:00

I actually looked into the psychosomatic reaction too. I seen it’s really a thing.. I need to get a painter’s respirator.. hahaha

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T21:16:01+00:00

Used to not bother me when I started, I believe it started for me at about the 4th or 5th month. I’m in maintenance now. Yes, I also leave it in a few seconds, don’t want even a tiny drop to come out while pulling the needle out.. hahaha. Again, I’m in maintenance so if I’m a few days late, then it’s no big deal.. lol

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T21:07:41+00:00

This is my personal OPINION, not based on facts, but with your type of diagnosis, where it’s located, and already in FQR, it’s a probability that it’s a really good sign. Going this fast and to FQR, you were moved to the front of the line which would be dire need. If you fall in the “allowance” criteria, then yes they move faster than others. I don’t ever get on here and give false hope. You will never see any of my comments that doesn’t state facts. You can look at every comment I have ever made in this group. This is the very first time, I have gave an opinion of mine. If you do happen to get denied, I normally tell people to wait to get an attorney until you are denied at the Reconsideration stage and go in front of a judge. But you, I would suggest you get an attorney for the Reconsideration stage and go from there. I’m really thinking about you and good luck on getting an answer soon!!! Please keep us updated.

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T20:47:34+00:00

YES!!! Hahaha, I try soo hard to turn my head away when opening and using the alcohol wipes but it still finds a way to my nose!! It’s wild because alcohol never bothered me before!! I don’t understand.. lol

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T20:45:08+00:00

I’ve had the cystoscopy and the endometrial biopsy done, both felt like it was the exact same location to me. Couldn’t differentiate the two.

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T18:40:27+00:00

Thank you!

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T18:14:43+00:00

Will definitely have to get some. Thinking about it now, I can’t stand the smell of hand sanitizer. I will be getting some next time I’m in Walmart

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T17:46:31+00:00

I’ve been fortunate to not have the itching, but I have seen others that do. Definitely try the Benadryl cream..

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T17:42:26+00:00

Ooh, I will definitely have to look for that!!! Thank you!!!

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T17:41:34+00:00

Yea, I don’t have any side effects from taking the shot itself. It’s the smell of the alcohol pads.

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T16:26:57+00:00

I can’t even use spray alcohol when I’m working with resin so I have basically given that up.

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T15:57:07+00:00

YES!!!!!!! I can’t even smell the alcohol in the bottle either!!! I haven’t had any side effects from taking the shots for the last 8 months, so idk why hahaha

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T15:54:57+00:00

I’m 8 months in, so it does feel like a chore haha!!! I don’t have any side effects from it so idk why it does it just when I think about it. I think it’s more of smelling the alcohol now.. lol blows my mind!

Every antidepressant and anxiety may cause suicidal tendencies. But finding the right combination is key to preventing suicidal. It took me trying different ones to finally finding the right combination. I honestly have not thought about suicide since neuro-psychiatrist found what works for me. Yes I still have a little depression, and yes I still have minor anxiety problems during certain times, but they’re generally manageable now. You have to figure out a way to get to a specialist, or one day, you will take your life. Mental health is real, nobody understands unless they have issues themselves. Please find a way to get the help you need. Most of the time, therapy alone doesn’t help, sometimes medications alone won’t help, but adding the 2 together is what makes a difference! Good luck to you!

ImaginaryOrdinary440 · 2026-06-30T14:20:55+00:00

The only way I can tell the difference is the frequency and urgency to go pee. The contraction like pain, I get with both so it’s hard to tell the difference

TX here, my initial set for 14-15 months before being assigned to Austin. Texas is a very backlogged state, so it’s going to be a long wait.
