Cha cha cha.
I took my first dose of ribarats and the shot. I feel a little light headed and sick to my stomach but not much else. I am thinking it is because my bg is high.
If anything bad is going to happen, how long b4 the train hits?

" I'd say in an hour or two, but for me the next day was always the worst. Tomorrow you'll feel like you have the flu, take some advil before you go to sleep! And take it easy tomorrow. Good luck!!! "

" I took my first shot with the nurse (LOL... I AM a nurse...) at 3:00 on a Friday afternoon. She told me to take a couple of tylenol 5 hours after the shot and anticipate some sides by hour six.
Nothing at hour six
Nothing at hour seven
Nothing at hour eight.
I finally went to bed, exhausted from unrealized side effects.
Saturday was fine, Sunday was fine. Monday I was nauseated. Tuesday, I was sleepy all day. Wednesday, fine. Thursday, fine. Then the second shot on Friday. Still no sides to speak of.
Good luck, trap.... May your sides be few and your luck be like mine.
Keep us posted and congratulations on taking on the dragon!! "
