Hi Kristi

What kind of problems are you having injecting? Just tired of doing them? Or having site reactions?

Doing them standing up would be fine as long as you can pinch up the skin and get the needle in the fatty tissue. I would recommend doing it manually and not with the autojector. That way you would have more control and see exactly where the needle is going. That's my suggestion from my experience when I was on copaxone.
