Well, the nurse yesterday said it would take ten days for my new autojects to arrive. Guess what showed up while I was out at my physical therapy session?

Two brand new autojects.

I'm a little torn now...I'm scared to manually inject myself, but the autojects hurt more. I think I'll go ask my dad to show me how to do the manual injection and see if I'm successful with that tonight.

I do remember that I need to pinch the skin, then put the needle in, and slowly (count to 10) inject the C.

Am I right??

or is it, pinch, put needle in, start slowly injecting, and then let go of the skin?

Well, however my dad did it last night, it only burned for a little bit and then felt better pretty quickly after that. I dont even have a big welt today.

oh crap...I didnt get a new syringe out of the refrigerator, and my dad is going to bed in a few minutes (and wont want to be woken up)

Ok, I'll torture myself tonight, and have my dad show me how tomorrow afternoon.
