Question about Follistim
I just started my Follistim injections last week and it's been everyday at 7:45pm. Is it ok to do one tonight at 8:45 instead? That's what time my husband will be home to do it and I don't want to do it myself.

Re: Question about Follistim
I never did mine at a scheduled time.
Ii just did them when I could/
i do not think that small diff will matter.
Call and ask them though. The only pain with follistim is holding the pen/
I put it in and squeezed with both hands while it was in my skin.
I also found doing it slow was better then jabbing.

Re: Question about Follistim
We tried to keep to a schedule (shots every twelve hours) somewhat. Sometimes, it just wasn't possible and we'd be off by an hour or two. It was no big deal.

Re: Question about Follistim
Great thanks! Glad I won't have to do it myself. Do you all refrigerate it?

Re: Question about Follistim
Yes, keep it refrigerated but let it get to room temperature before you do the injection. I would take mine out about 10-15 minutes before doing it.
