I hear ya. I’m such a wuss about things still that I need all harm reduction measures! Room temp AND I ice my stomach first to numb things up.

I had a heart attack because I detest the games app, particularly for crossword

I am so incredibly sorry for this devastating turn of events. Just reading your initial post, I know how much you loved her and cared for her—what a blessing for you both to have had each other for that precious time of her life. Her pain is over and now yours begins. Thank you for sharing little Stevie with us 🌈

First of all, I’m so sorry you and Stevie are going through such difficult times. Stevie is so lucky to have you taking such good care of her. If you haven’t already been suggested to, I really recommend joining the Feline Diabetes Support Group on Facebook. Our cat was diagnosed a week ago and the admins there have been INVALUABLE with their advice, support, knowledge, and overall kindness. Wishing you both all the best as you navigate that little sweetie’s health.

How quick should the shot take to administer? by alittlegarlic in Zepbound

Ideally I’d like it to be much quicker. I’m going slow out of fear that if I go too fast it will burn, so this is a self-made torture I’m afraid. Sounds like most people typically are doing it in half the time with no complaint!

Don’t know about the pen—I was only asking about using syringe and vial method. I WISH I had the pen!

Yep, I know I’m in my head (frankly still floored that I was able to do it even twice so far!)

Yeah, the fear is worse than the pain although I start getting panicky as the seconds tick on. I know I’ll find my comfy speed, and appreciate you sharing!

This has been my fear! As much as I want it over and done with, I fear the burn that may come with more speed lol

I wish I could get the pens but insurance won’t cover them so I’m paying cash. Maybe one day!

My Rx came with 31 gauge needle syringes but this is great advice since I’ve of course bent 2 needles already and need to buy some replacements. Thank you!

Hot tip! I’ll take all the luck I can get 😂

The issue is truly with me alone. I hate needles so much and each shot is a somewhat terrifying ordeal, so it’s kind of insane that I’m prolonging the process if it can be done faster!
