I've ordered it and now feel scared!

[Cosycover]

I've ordered my first dose. Sent pics etc and now I suddenly feel scared! I don't want this to be a waste of money so will see it through but can someone point me in the direction of how to take it? Is there a video you can follow?

This might sound daft but I'm nervous of air bubbles in the jab!

If you find the "continuing Mounjaro..." threads in this section, in the OP there is a ton of information about the objections, including a video of how to inject.

The instruction leaflet that comes with the pen has a step by step set of instructions with images at each point. It's not that complicated just read and re read the instructions and do them methodically. Once you've done the first one, it's very straightforward after that.

One of the steps is to prime the pen which removes any air bubbles, so don't worry about that!

Your provider should supply you with the info.

What is 'it'?

I found this video useful:

You've got this op!

Read as much as you can first, the opening post in the 'continuing mounjaro' threads is excellent.

Pop onto the newest thread (I think it's 19 and feel free to ask questions.

I read a couple of those threads right through to learn everything I needed to know!

When your medication arrives, read the accompanying leaflet thoroughly.

It's really important that you know what you're getting yourself into.

Enjoy the ride ❤️

Mine came with no instructions!

I did get an email though with a link to a video.

@Plimsoll73 which online pharmacy was that with?

@SilenceInside MedExpress. I got it all out last night and I was like - where are the instructions! But they had sent an email with it on (well a link to a video).

Oh that's a bit rubbish of them! I think I'd have been very confused if I hadn't had the paper instructions the first time.

Yeah, luckily I'd watched enough Tiktoks in advance, so I knew what to do but paper would have been easier. I had no desire to watch a 10 minute video first!
