Reactions To Growth Factor Shots

Knoxville, TN

I just got my 4 set of growth factor shots. I’ve been achy through them but this last set has made me nauseous too. Have any of you that had these experienced these things or other reactions.

There are so many people on this site that go through collection without an ache🥴 I felt soo awful. I thought I was going to have a stroke. I refused growth factors after my transplant. I hope I never need them again. It takes a few days to get that stuff out of your system 🥰

I finished mine yesterday after 2 8 hour days. I’m nauseous, achy, and my head is in a fog. I’m glad I’m done. Hope to feel better soon😞
