Whats the question, your getting a steroid injection tomorrow for a growth defeciency and you want to know what?
I have no experience, sorry. It will probably make you feel a lot better though, you might even end up growing a lot over the course of the next week. It is not something to dred, it is something to look forward to. I would be excited if I were in your shoes =)
It really shouldn’t make you feel all that different. Its simply going to put you at the same level that everyone else is normally at in terms of your growth.
You should feel exactly the same, but over time will probably notice some more changes that are ‘normal’ compared to other people….
Oh, hey me too!
I just went for my biannual (2x a year) endocrinology check up. The labs from my blood work said that i was deficient in growth hormone and that i would need to take the shots. About 10 years ago i had taken growth hormone as a child because i was short for my age. I use to have to give myself a shot of it every night for a year. It’s really painless and there are probably not going to be any unlikeable side affects. However that was my experience taking it as a child. So now i have to take it again at 22 years old. It probably won’t have any affect on our growth at our age…. however it is possible. My sister who is a doctor filled me in on how growth hormone treatment will affect an adults body: pretty much it is going to give you more leaner body mass, you’ll have more energy, and better metabolism. Sounds nice to me.
One last thing; depending on how deficient you are will determine how long you have to stay on the treatment. usually 6 months. Good luck
