Default Acthar Gel Anyone?

If you read my other post, you saw that I'm in a flare (had another from last October-December) and can't do IVSM...had a bad reaction to it. I've tried oral steroids, but they don't help. This time, my neuro has recommended we try acthar gel. The only things I know are that it's OUTRAGEOUSLY expensive and it's injectible.

Has anyone used this to treat a flare? Are the shots IM or sub-q? Side effects?

Thanks!
