I've never done that to myself but I did have a nurse hit a nerve in the top of my hand when she was trying to put in an IV. OUCH!!! She got that one out pretty quickly too!:eek:

Erin, sorry you had a problem with your last injection.

Back when I was on C, I injected too far up on my arm and hit the muscle. Boy, did that hurt! The muscle I injected jumped afterwards for hours, and I had pain up and down my arm.

I've been on Betaseron for nearly three years now, and I'm going to have to stop injecting my abdomen because it's covered with purple spots that won't go away, and I'm worried now about skin breakdown there.

I don't have too much trouble with my arms. I hang the arm over the back of the kitchen chair, just injecting the top or side of the arm but never the bottom.

My thighs also have the dark marks that won't go away. But I never wear shorts or a bathing suit, so that's no problem.

I'm seriously considering talking to my neuro about starting Tysabri. I talked to a number of people at the infusion center while I was there for IV steroids, and they all had very good things to say about it. I've also read the posts about T on NT. I've sent away for some information from the Tysabri website, and will go from there.

I hope your dad doesn't feel too bad. I know how much parents hate to cause their children pain, even when they're helping them.

how ya doing now? has it healed up? do you have the courage to try again?

I did a shot last night...in the stomach... I only did half the shot. My skin just feels all weird in my stomach now.

I'm really wanting to quit this stuff. It's ruining my skin, and the stupid neuro just ruined any confidence I might have had in the C when he told me that he doesnt think that the injectibles do anything. (said the same thing about LDN, but I think I still want to try that tho)
