Hi, as a new rebif user myself, I hope I can ease some concerns for you
I just started Rebif not quite 3 wks. ago, am into my middle dose size, and so far have had only one tiny mark at an injection site and no side effects, at least not from the injection. The needle is so fine that the first few times I was sure it hadn't gone in, and actually checked the syringe after to make certain it was empty. Hydration, pre medicating, taking it in the evening, getting the syringe out well in advance (I take mine out in the AM), and making certain you let the alcohol dry completely before injecting are the tips I read and have followed. I learned last night, after wasting a dose  , that the syringes warm up pretty quickly under one's arm, but having a fortune in meds in your axillary area is not the way to go,  , so hopefully you won't need to learn from my mistake.Best of luck, I hope it is as smooth a process for you as it has been for me.
