Self injected for the first time using needles and syringes I bought at a chemist in Germany (was there on business last week) and it was amazingly easy and painless. Needles are a bit small (30 gauge) so have ordered 23 gauge for next time. This forum has been so helpful, and I felt really optimistic taking matters into my own hands after nearly a year of being too ill to get out of bed -- except for 2 months after my loading dose, during which I felt fine. But Dr didn't tell me that I had a chronic condition, and so I went back to square one within 2 months.
Only thing I find is that any "recovery" reaction I have is neither linear nor immediate. Do most people find this? I kind of expected to feel better the next day. But I do notice with lots of lozenges, sprays (and now injections) the blinding headaches I wake up with every morning start to recede. So something's definitely happening.
