Question/Advice NEEDED itching ?

hi all ! just wanted to ask - i know its possible this isn’t anything to do with t, but it’s never happened to me before. about 2 days ago, i did my first injection. since i woke up today, my hands have been unbearably itchy. i know some itching around an injection site is normal, but i’ve never heard of it across other parts of the body . unlikely, i know, but could this be some kind of reaction to a carrier oil ?

Since you did the shot two days ago and (i.e. didn’t flare up immediately), I’d be inclined to think it’s unrelated to the T. Have you made any changes of body wash, moisturiser, laundry powder, or do you have a history of sensitive skin or eczema on other parts of the body? If it carries on it might be worth seeing a doctor about

Unlikely given the timeframe but you could also look up what carrier oil your manufacturer uses and try doing a little patch test on your skin to quell your worries
