Guest guest Posted January 23, 2004 Report Posted January 23, 2004  Hi , Please refresh my memory -- are you new to therapy for MS? Which ABCRn drug are you doing? I am doing rebif and have been for three months. Some of my injections are terribly painful. But I have found that manually injecting is much easier. I stop the plunger when it burns .. sometimes for over a minute.... and by then somehow my tissue is used to it and it is easier. I was also told on a teleconference not to put the needle all the way in to the hub. This also has helped. I still have injections (last night for instance) that cause prolonged extreme pain afterwards. I hate those ... always swear that I will not be able to continue therapy any longer. I am only giving these tips for Sub Q shots... the IM would not work keeping some of the needle out. Martha Quote
