Started on Blood Thinners today. Had to self inject subcutaneously.

First of at least 42 needles. Daily for 6 weeks.

Today was the last of 42 blood thinner treatment needle injections.
Tomorrow I return to the hospital for x rays to see if the bone has healed sufficiently to start putting weight on my foot again.
I hope I can get rid of the crutches. 58 days hobbling around now.
Several days ago the rubber grommet on the end of one crutch deteriorated and the metal underneath was exposed.
As soon as I stepped onto my kitchen floor, the crutch, with no grip, (unbeknownst to be) slipped from under me and I fell heavily onto the floor hurting my shoulder immensely.
Please let me be rid of theses crutches.
@KiwiBird I think he'd like access to some of them too😂

@OogieBoogie I was meaning estrogen shots or similar.....grow your own.
@KiwiBird I think that just might cause a few more issues...especially with his work crew 🤣

Took me awhile to inject insulin as a diabetic but I got use to it. Just make sure you hit a spot with fewer nerve endings.

@Pfuzylogic Injected into stomach skin either side of navel. No pain, simple and quick

@Gusman Glad there is no pain. It is merely an annoyance at best for me now.
