In the beginning (I'm always tempted to say, "God said, 'Let there be light. And there was light.'"), it stung for quite a while. Then sometimes thereafter it would sting just a little bit or not at all and there would be a few weeks where it would sting like it did in the beginning. I have no clue why it went that way, but maybe it depended on the batch.

Good for YOU for getting through it. It's certainly a mindset change. I couldn't handle it at first because it made me feel like I was sick--like the syringe was a visible sign of me being ill. Ugh... I got over that and moved to just disliking the injections! LOL
