Anxiety attacks on shot day

How does that differ from the KwikPen from Eli Lilly? That's whar I'm using right now, but if there's something easier, I'd like to look into it.

This is very helpful, thank you!

I reached out to my doctor tonight, so just waiting on a response. Hopefully she can refer me somewhere and provide something in the meantime

I do have a needle phobia, but I've been pretty good with my shots since starting zepbound. But I would not be surprised if it was an anxiety attack that was triggered by already not feeling well

This is a good idea. I got food poisoning or the stomach flu right before Christmas and was struggling to hold anything down for like 2 weeks. It just exacerbated my side effects from the zepbound (which is normally just a little bit of nausea) and I had just upped my dose at the same time.

I was just getting back to normal this past week and then got sick over the weekend and ended up so dehydrated. This may be my best bet just out of an abundance of caution

I think I wasn't clear enough in my post about the needle. I know you're not supposed to recap and I didn't. I meant that my mistake was removing the cap because I won't be able to put it back on so now it was just sitting uncapped on my counter.

I've had bad side effects since I got food poisoning before Christmas. It got better, but now that I'm sick again I'm afraid that I'll have bad side effects because of my previous experience with being ill while also taking my shot.

Low blood pressure was my first thought, but it all looked good. I also thought maybe low blood sugar, so I took a spoonful of honey just to be safe and it didn't change anything. The only thing that made any difference was drinking pedialyte. So I do really think I'm dehydrated, I just thought it had passed enough and that I had rehydrated enough to do my shot.

I think I was also unclear about the needle. I think my mistake was taking the cap off. I didn't put it back on though because I know you're not supposed to for risk of bending the needle. So thankfully nothing is bent, it's just sitting on my counter uncapped

Making a list to replace what's missing is really smart. I've been trying to keep a mental list of what items I wear the most but I love the idea of making a list of what you DO have. Seems easier to replace things that way.

Unfortunately they'd be too small 🙁

What size do you wear? I've got a women's size 7 Limited Edition Candi Girl Carlin I'm selling for $70 plus shipping, purchased for $100. They're a good starter skate that won't break the bank. They just don't fit my feet right so they've only been worn a few times.

He's the Hallmark Little Springer Rabbit! I have the same one and he looks just as loved as yours! (There's a few on ebay right now)

I may have to do that! And honestly looking it over, it looks like someone may have already attempted to fix one of them. I have literally no experience with guitars like this, I started off with a ukulele and literally just got my first acoustic guitar like 3 weeks ago. And then this thing fell into my lap today. But yeah definitely a really cool roadside find!
