I think you need to monitor the appearance of your lesions and other symptoms such as the itching. Also be on the look out for side effects. I hope your treatment is successful.

Yes, monitor, journal what you see & feel can help too. Also any differences in heat/cold, what you put on your skin may change too. You can have areas that act/react differently.

I didn’t really notice anything after the first shots. After about the 6th I noticed some improvement in the discomfort but not the nodules. It was pretty short lived for me. But it sure helps others.
