Remember that the injection sites will get worse and the finally will get better. When I 1st started, the site reactions weren't too bad. About the 3rd week (I think) they became worse and then eventually the reactions subsided.
I also do not do my thighs. I just don't have enough fat on them and had more site reactions when I did my thighs than anywhere else. I have had 3 IPIR and all three were after I did my thighs. So I quit that site. As of the past maybe couple of months, I quit my arms too as the tremors have increased a bit and I couldn't control the needle for manual injections. (Nothing like trying to accurately jab myself with a needle going all over the place


) I don't have much fat on my arms either but had been able to get away with a 45 degree angle in the arms. I am now down to tummy and hips.
Happy shooting!
