Hello,
thanks for posting on HCM,
It is clearly a side effect of depo provera shot you just took. You need to report this as soon as possible to your doctor.
The following a some serious side effects that you might experience while on depo and you are required to call your doctor as soon as possible.
- Migraine headache, double vision
- Numbness or weakness in your arm or leg, or on one side of your body.
- Pain in your lower leg (calf).
- Severe pain in your stomach or abdomen, especially on only one side.
- Sudden or severe headache, problems with vision, speech, or walking.
- Unusual bleeding from your vagina.
Some medications might be provided to tamper the adverse effects of depo.
hope this helps
