Any pre-injection tips for Tymlos?

I think you have it covered and you’re going to do great! At first I did get a little vertigo, but it happened when I would lie down. So, I make sure I sit up for a while after the injection. I also keep track of where I inject so I can alternate those areas. I watched the Tymlos video on how and where to inject and took a screen shot of the belly they show with areas to inject. I make copies of that and fill in the squares with the injection day, 1-30. Don’t know if that makes sense. I’ll see if I can figure out how to attach photo.

Thank you! I’ve been trying to think how to keep track of injection sites (my doc said stomach only)—what a great idea! Then you have a long term record! Unfortunately, I have already developed quite a belly roll over the last four very stressful years. So I have some space! (Praying the Tymlos doesn’t expand it even more, but I just need to be grateful I have access to it!). Do you squeeze the flesh between your thumb and forefinger, inject, then let go of the flesh while keeping the pen in for the count of ten? I watched the Tymlos video, but they just show sticking the pen needle into flat flesh area….Thx!
