Volada,

It doesn't sound like the doctor thinks this is a pronto thing.

If you have never done injections before or hubby has never done them, I would recommend the training with him there. You will need him sometimes to either give emotional you can do it or at times, mine had to do it (like when I waited too late at night and my hand was shaking)....

You will love the once a week thing! The needle is long, but like Moose said it is very slim....I RARELY felt the needle go in....

Take Care!
