Been on C 3 1/2 years now...my neuro told me to inject it deeper. I use the autoject and I set it at an 8. I hardly ever get welts now.
Do you also push on the injection site with a cotton ball for one minute after you inject? It helps get the med in deeper...

I had to discontinue injecting in arms and thighs. My thighs have a permanent thickening of the subcutaneous area. I have air pockets and crevices where I inject that are permanent.

And welcome to NT...lots of info, support and hugs here. I learned so much from others here!!
