I swear it does get better. I've been on it for 2 years now, just passed my anni. I'm afraid I'll run out of spots one day because I don't have to much fat and am definitely running out of spots on my arm. Some days do suck more than others, some places more than others. I find if I inject an area that hasn't been injected before, it seems to hurt worse...like, from this board, I learned I can also do the side walls of my thighs.

For me, when I stopped using ice, the welts weren't so bad. I know ice helps the burn but it made some ugly red splotches that itched like hell. No ice = no itchiness. Also, make sure the alcohol is completely dry before you inject. It also helps if you give yourself a reward every time you inject. I wouldn't recommend my reward (I smoke a little) to everyone but it helps me.
