Free text: Regarding muscle ache: my bicep muscles of injection are got extremely weak last night. It was as if with I had zero strength OR as if my arm alone weighed over 100 lbs. It was literally hard to move my arm- not paralyzed but immensely heavy because my muscles in the bicep area just didnt want to work. I often used my good arm to help move my affected arm. The joint and muscle pain then made it hard to sleep. By noon today Im still sore and that arm is tired but I can move it much more easily. Lastly after the 1st injection I was more tired midday for a whole week. I was blaming something else but now I wonder if it was a side effect. Well see how next days go.
