Guest guest Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Hi Jenni, I'm le, sorry I missed meeting you at the convention last year. My son Coby has been on Humatrope for almost 6 months now. WOW...I didn't realize it had been that long. It feels like we just started last month. I did use a syringe and the inject ease. Now I just use the syringe, just a personal preference. I told the rep when we scheduled the appt what device I wanted to use and she brought the inject ease with her when she came to teach us how to do the injections. Dr. H told us to use Humatrope, but I believe that they are all basically the same, just made by different companies. I'm sure if I have misunderstood someone will be able to correct me on that point. If you have any other questions please feel free to contact me any time. le, mom to: Shye 10, Brock 8, and Coby (rss) & Carlee 2 yr old twin terrors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2005 Report Share Posted February 12, 2005 Thank you le for your reply! I have a feeling that I will ask to start with the inject-ease and then see if I can move over to just the pen.. I am just more mentally prepared to not have to insert the needle myself.. I am sure that after time it will become less intimidating for the both of us.. Madeline seems to have a pretty good attitude about starting GH and I am praying for smooth sailing ļ Thank you again for your reply!!
