But I can only do shots in my belly. It hurts pretty well everywhere else. I have started doing them without the auto injector. They've come out with a smaller needle and it works pretty well for me. I really can't believe I got brave enough to try it w/out the injector...one day I just did it! My husband couldn't believe it...nor could I. But anyway, it leaves less problems at the site than when I use the injector.
