Rock on, Jappy! The worst is over and it's upward and onward from here. Kudos on you!






Now, go get busy on my pies before DM wanders back into the picture.

Kudos to you, Jappy dear! Here's hoping it does the trick for you!

I was just thinking about the pies yesterday.
were is DM anyway?

Pies? You're making pies for people?
Sorry..I got distracted. Glad to hear the shot went well (first one's always the hardest). Hope it works great for you!

Last night had my second shot. Things didn't go as well as the
first.



I bled more and woke up in the middle of the night with more
pain then usually. It felt like I had the ms and fibro pain with flu like
aches. This morning didn't feel to good. But happy to say that about
10am I was feeling better.

I take an aspirin a day for my blood to help keep it thinned because
of my heart problem Maybe that is why it was bleeding more.
I wonder if the first time I did it right because I didn't bleed
and have a black & blue mark like I have now


Well Monday is when I am due for the next shot. We will see what
happens then.

Jappy

You probably hit a capillary, nothing to worry about. It could be a vein too but I don't know how big your needle is since Jim never took Rebif. The bruising comes from the blood under the skin and the fact you take an aspirin. No one can tell where those pesky little veins are so it happens time to time. Just apply pressure when it happens and all should be fine.

Here's to a better shot on Monday!

Try your stomach.

Even if you are thin, it has the most fat and is pretty painless. It took a lot to stick what I thought of as my soft underbelly but it was actually the best.

I got the courage due to a friend of mine that is diabetic and has to give herself shots 5-6 times a day.

I figured she was an expert.

You will bleed less and there will be plenty of places to trade in respect to areas.

I promise you will like it!

Way to go!

I've never used Rebif, but Baclofen was the same way in that it had to be titrated upward to the full dose.

Sorry about the weather there. Wish I could send you some of the sunshine from here!

Yeah, the tummy's the best shot cushion..

Yea!!! Congrats!!!
