Most countries dont offer an avonex injector because its a deep muscle shot. There are things you can do.

1. you can learn how to do it, and with time get more comfie.
2. make friends with the local MD office, and drop in once a week for the injection.
3. recruit a friend or a loved one to learn how and take on the task.
4. speak to the MS society about helping you track down either an injector, a buddy to help you.


make sure you are well hydrated, and premedicated for the injection. Many folks say it helps immensely to be hydrated.

Google Avonex injector and see what pops up. I think Germany offers one, but I am not sure if they will ship it to you. I know when Copaxone offers Canadian stuff they wont send it to USA. Silly huh?
