Anybody else's partner jump at the chance of this? Should i worry that he wants to inject me

There is no way i could do it to myself but he offered only to quickly for my liking :8855::8855::8855:

He will have to catch me first:bliss:

I don't like this thread !! I hate needles and I am ignoring that I have to have injections post-op.

I am also looking into B12 lozenges that melt under your tongue and apparently are absorbed as well as a jab is - heres hoping lol.

I too hate needles and am dreading it, but it will be worth it.

I do think my hubby will enjoy stabbing me tho

 

[dottychic]

The needles are absolutely tiny and really thin, I hate needles too but these really arent bad XX

What is all this about INJECTIONS ???

 

[dottychic]

They are Clexane injections that you have when you have surgery, they are to prevent blood clots. You usually have to have them for a few days when you come home depending on how long you are in hospital. I had to have them for 6 weeks altogether but thats only because Id had 5 DVT's in the past. They are tiny, dont worry! XX

 

[charm55]

I only had them for 5 days after going home.

 

[emma-louise]

Husband offered but I could see the evil grin on his face...lol
So I did them myself,you hardly feel a thing if like me you pinch your fat tummy and just shove it in x

Hi guys..i wouldn't let my other half near me...
i am used to injections because of the insulin...but can i ask a question..
how many days did you have to inject yourself for,and was in once a day????
thank ladies(and gents!)

 

[lamornamiss]

My best friend did the one the night before my op and hubby did them after for 10 days.
They don't hurt when it goes in but it stings after a couple of seconds after.
He always said sorry just after the injection but boy did I play on it

Lisa, I had them for 5 days after going home and only 1 a day.

My hubby tried, I flipped out and we went to a local walk in centre once a day afterwards! I told him quite politely he was welcome to spend a few years qualifying as a nurse if he wanted to inject me.

Then I fell pregnant, and due to a health condition had to have the same injections every day for 9 months I can't self inject, selfish hubby still hadn't been to med school so it was off to my gp, the walk in centre or the dvt team every single day.

I am absolutely fine with those and the b12 so long as a nurse or doctor is doing them!
