Guest guest Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 With the self mix...i get my dr to order the smaller needles..not sure but think its 30g and 1/2 inch. they're better needles. LOL on the enbrel causing weight loss. I'm sure you look great!! Hugs..paula Some of us would like it if Enbrel caused us to lose a little weight. I'm not overweight, but I am at the top end of normal for my height. I'd like to be 10-15 pounds lighter, but my body won't agree to it, LOL. Clora, Enbrel has worked wonderfully well for me. I've been on it for over five years, and have had few side effects. Occasionally I have a mild injection site reaction, about like a mosquito bite. I also use the twice-weekly that I mix myself ************** Huge Savings on Popular Laptops only at Dell.com. Shop Now!

Guest guest Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 So you mean there is a choice of needles with the self-mix Enbrel? I was not aware of that. I remember when the needles were REALLY long!

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 So, a, these needles fit on the Enbrel the same way as the ones that come with it? I assume that they do, or you couldn't use them, LOL.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Hi Sue...yes....they do. and they're not as dull. I found the enbrel needles a little on the dull side. I get a box of 100. You can buy them online too but with the drs script, I get them for free but I'm on ssi. Hugs..paula ************** Stay connected and tighten your budget with a great mobile device for under $20.
