Hey Erin,
I hear ya! I just gave myself a shot 15 minutes ago manually in the stomach. It barely went into my skin, and kind of stuck, and hurt like crazy.

These needles completely suck. I tried Rebif for a couple of weeks and the needles were so fine and sharp you could barely feel them going in. But compared to that these C. needles feel like dull sticks being jammed into your body.
What would happen if we went and bought diabetic needles and switched the medicine over? I don't understand why they can't make needles like the Rebif needles. I mean, is the consistency of the C. medication thicker or something? I'm starting to think they are going the cheap route to make as much money as they can.
