I just started on Tymlos and had my first dose yesterday with instruction from a nurse. She said to pinch about an inch and raise the area to make sure there is fat tissue where I'm going to inject. She said that it's fine to inject on the thigh in an area that has enough fat tissue (pinch an inch), and not on any veins that you can see under the skin. She also said that the back of the arm is another option, but you'd need someone else to administer it that way. I was told to avoid injecting again in the same area since the tissue can become hardened and then you can't use that site again. I have some belly fat but I am quite thin. I'm interested to learn from people with more experience: How do people manage to use a different site each time? And after how long can you return to the same site? Has anyone experienced their tissue becoming hardened and what can be dome about it?
Thanks so much for the support of this group! As a new beginner I feel that I already need support to keep doing this for even one more day, and two years seems quite daunting!!
