Metoject pen first time.

I used my Metoject pen for the first time this morning. It would have been simple if my thumbs had any strength in them 🤪. I managed, felt absolutely nothing and wondered whether I'd actually done it. It was only afterwards (going to compare with an unused pen) I felt some soreness around the injection site that I concluded I'd won!

Next week I'll get Mark to do it.

I did my first injection two weeks ago in my right thigh and found it easy, being right handed I found it a bit awkward the second time when I did it in the left thigh. I hope it’s successful for you.
