as for rebif. I hate needles too. I no longer use a DMD but I had a diabetic friend so I asked her which body part did she use since she had to shoot med many times a day. She told me stomach. It was not easy to try my soft underbelly! But it has the most fat. It really was a good place and plenty of spots too.

I medicate my sleep! I am an old lady and truly, I love my sleep! There are plenty of things to try first before drugs though. Lots of people here to answer your questions.
Hi Aarcyn,

The stomach seems to be the least painful and doesn't leave any noticable marks. I mostly inject in the thighs cause that is where the majority of my body fat is located. Before the nuvigil, I tried Ambien CR but I stopped because I didn't want to have to take a pill to get up and take one to go to sleep. Now I use amantadine once a day to combat the fatigue. It seems to work a little. I was going to physical therapy but I stopped because it wiped me out. Age has nothing to do with sleep, I have loved my sleep since my college days. I would rather sleep than party.
