I recently started Somavert 25mg Single Dose Inj for acromegaly. I feel like I've been experiencing more side effects than I anticipated. I know everyone is different, but I'd love to hear from anyone else who's been on this medication. I keep getting a rash around the injection site, which is pretty uncomfortable. How common is this and how long did it take for your body to get used to the medication? Also, curious about tips on managing any side effects that pop up.

I'd love to hear from others who have used this medication and their experiences with it. How has it worked for you? What side effects have you encountered?
