Guest guest Posted May 31, 2001 Report Share Posted May 31, 2001 Sue, Don't know the name of the test, sorry, but someone might know. Do you have a problem with dry eyes and nose?

You get used to it after awhile. Only problem is my insurance won't pay for injectable Metho but it is not expensive. Sandy > > > > > Question for those using metho.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2001 Report Share Posted June 22, 2001 > > > > Dear Sandy, Thanks so much, I think I could probably do it myself, I gave my husband his shots for MS for several years every day. Course he complained alot about it too. Now he does it himself. He would probably really LOVE giving me a shot. Where is the best spot to do it? Hip or arm. Somebody said the needle was really big. Is that right? LOL. Love, Marilyn ank you for your input. Do you inject yourself? Marilyn > > > > Marilyn, > Yes, I inject myself. You get used to it after awhile.

I shot into a fat pad sorta' on the side of my stomach. Didn't hurt at all!

If you use the arm someone else needs to do it for you.
