Thanks for the encouraging success stories! I think I am nervous about two things...

first, actually putting a needle into my skin. I can barely handle people doing it to draw blood, so am not sure I can do it myself. I'm thinking right now that my poor DH may get the joy of helping with that... or that I will just have to suck it up and do it. I am also nervous about it hurting. Other than immunizations, the only things I have ever been injected with are cortisone shots for asthma, and they hurt like HE**!!!

second, it seems like injectable drugs are so much more "serious" and I am afraid of screwing them up. Pills seem so harmless by comparison...

But, it sounds like the shots are pretty effective, and I know that the result is worth it... so I guess I just have to be an adult and do it???
