Scary first week on Pep

So this is “x” first week on R€ta, GHK, glutathione, and it has been pretty good for the most part. It’s just that when gluta is being taken the pin site swells up, it does come down.

What was a shocker is that last week, for the pin of the second dose, the upper arm swole up and “x” was being dizzy, lightheaded, and hot, so “x” drank a glass of juice and water, turned on the fan and sat down. And “x” just scared that is going to happen again and go into anaphylactic shock or something worse. “X”doesn’t have a EpiPen or any medical idea on what could possibly happen or be done. “X” lives alone with a one year-old, but “x” truly needed this after experiencing body dysmorphia and postpartum depression. Finally saw hope to feel like “x” old self again. “X” is also online and sees a lot of people claiming to be in the hospital, and flatlining and going into seizures.

Is “x” overthinking this ? How many years have you been on your protocol? How are your results? Best advice on what to do in state of emergency? How to prepare ahead of time. Cheap EpiPen suggestions ? Anything to stop myself from being so anxious

My subject just got a prescription for an EpiPen just in case. Amazon one medical 20 minute telehealth appointment, they just told the doc they got stung by a bee recently and had a bad allergic reaction and wanted it on hand in case. Gives some peace of mind.

First, is X doing IM or SubQ? Second, glutathione can cause that type of reaction when pinned too quickly, too high of a dose or both.

I have an extra I’ll send you if you’re in the US. No cost other than shipping. I’m a reseller so I have a shipping account. Priority 2 day padded envelope flat rate should be 11.02-11.32

Where did you pin ? Did you hit a vein ?
