The tummy is AWESOME! nice fat pad on most of us, and its one of the least painful areas. I was amazed by that.
I went thru a period where I was getting pretty lumpy from all the copaxone injections. I stuck my bum bum for a whole six weeks. nothing else but bum. There is a ton of areas on the bum to use, not just the outter corner. It allowed those lumps that I had going to heal up, and I started poking them again.
Rotate! Rotate! Rotate! Not just from arm to leg to tummy, and so on, also rotate within the area you pick on. Early weeks in the month, I shoot higher in that area. as the month progresses, I shoot lower. I make 4 rows for my shot areas. or 4 corners of that area. This way I am not poking the same sore spot over and over.
Dont shoot above your belly button. #1 it HURTS! #2 it wont absorb as well. Trust me, I have learned the lesson the hard way.
Its really scary to start, but once you do, you are going to amaze yourself, and shake your head, at how well you did.
Lets get poking!
