I recently started using Enoxaparin after undergoing a knee replacement to prevent blood clots. It's a bit of an adjustment having to inject myself daily, but the instructions are clear: under the skin in the stomach area. So far, I've had some minor irritation at the injection site, but nothing too bad. I'm mostly worried about the more serious side effects listed, like neurological symptoms or severe bleeding. Has anyone else used this and had any bad experiences? Or maybe some tips to make the injections less painful?

How do you manage the anxiety around these side effects? I've been told I need to stay on it for a few more months, so any tips on making this process less stressful would be much appreciated!
