According to the Firmagon website, they're supposed to rotate the area of your monthly shot around your naval (e.g. top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right) so that every "quadrant" gets a 4-month rest before the next shot. That helped a bit for me.

I'll have to put more thought into this. I get to pick the area, I usually pick left side for the firmagon because it's less "pinching" when bending over. This last one being a little higher has been good, very little pinching when bending over or getting up from the recliner. I always get the Xgeva shot on the right side of stomach, although they say I can get in my arm, I went with the got my shirt up anyway, just nail it. Maybe go with the arm shot next time. Little funny, last scan they noted the injection area from the scan, and that was day before I got the next shot. I thank you for giving me something to consider and always being supportive. Best to all.
