A month before my 6th DMPA shot, I asked Mike if I can have it in Novaliches rather than the clinic here where it’s only a walking distance. I didn’t like my experience with my 5th shot, although the one here in Shaw is the main branch, to which I expected too much of. When the nurse injected the medicine into my butt, I felt the same pain. But the difference is that the pain stayed for 2 long months.
That’s why I would rather travel for an hour just to get my shot from my trusted nurse there in Quezon City. It has been 48 hours now and the pain is slowly diminishing. I bet I can run again in a few days.
When my father and I met there in the mall near the clinic, my father asked again, with a look of disapproval, why I wanted to get this shot since he had read the many side effects like decreasing bone mass density. He knows how I can be so stubborn, so he just reminded me to take calcium and my vitamin supplements regularly.
I hope I can handle my mood swings and stop being uptight. hehe

…And besides calcium and other supplements, have an annual general check with your ob-gyne and GP Fedhz….
