When I gave it this morning, it was more Painful than usual, and ended up with my sheet wet, with about a 10cm x 3cm stain, not sure I got much at all. Anxious that I am in for s bad week, as I rely on my dose in Mon. Been having increased pains since Saturday 😏

Hi, sorry I can't be of any help but hope that you are feeling better with new treatments and still managing to work. Jen

That's a dilemma and a half! Sorry I can't advise you on what to do but have you tried phoning your rheumy for advice? Hope you get it sorted soon.

Spoke to healthcare@hone, because the needle went in I have to wait till next week when due again. Even though there was a stain 10cm x 3cm on the sheet. Anxious about pain escalating through the week 😏. The other 2 injections from the same batch have been more painful than usual. I think the needles are blunt 😏

Oh dear, that's not the news you were hoping for. I've had a couple of jags that were pretty painful recently. Wonder if it is something to do with the needles? I wondered if I had chosen the wrong spot to inject myself. Fingers crossed you aren't too sore before your next injection.

I thought it was just me.I,ve been on benepali for 14mths.at first the injections were painless,now every inj.is painful as if the needles are blunt.

Swelling is no more pain minimal, but fatigue,sweats and no appetite is the same.

I.m a bag of bones,struggling to eat.rely on Complan and yoghurt.skin so fragile,I look like a deflated balloon.

I.m 69 female struggling to maintain 39.5 kilos.

Not complaining just sharing.am I the only one?

I can do it, you can do it too - Another great achievement of a RA patient!

When the event came along, I hesitated if I should go for it? I knew it would be very challenging...
