Xolair Injection from Nurse - Ouch!

[Guest guest]

This past Mon. I had 3 injections by an RN at an infusion center after

self injecting successfully at home for 1-1/2 years. She injected into

the upper part of my arm - 2 in the left and 1 in the right. I still

have bruises that hurt on Fri. (I don't want to lean on the area when

laying down)

I thought this should be injected into fat - that's what I always did

and I NEVER had painful bruises that lasted this long. At the time I

told her I wanted it injected a bit further down my arm and she curtly

informed me that she was the RN. The two injections were only about 1

or 1-1/2 inch apart which was also part of the problem. She injected

much faster than I did also.

I don't think the doctor is listening to me at all, not to mention

there wasn't a doc in sight anywhere - just cancer patients in bad

shape. Trying to figure out what to do.
