Thanks again everyone for your very kind messages of support, PMs, phone calls and texts. Even those of you poised vulture-like over my kit

Off to the hospital soon to pick up my week's supply of injections

I'm afraid that is where I would play the coward card and sit at the hospital daily for someone else to do it.

When my knee went twang a few years ago, i had to have some sort of injection daily for 10 days. As I couldn't walk or drive, and lived alone with only a 6 year old for company they had to send a nurse in to do it. She was very good. She used to make me a cup of tea when she was here

I've never had a problem with needles. To be honest these particular jabs don't really hurt going in, it's the injection itself that stings - and that's going to happen whether the nurse does it or I do it myself. I also don't want to be hanging around in the Admissions Ward waiting room for an hour at a time while they sort it out.

Put the injection somewhere nice and 'soft' and you'll be fine. As someone who is particularly muscular, I chose to inject my six pack and it was just a bit hurty.

That'll be because the only 6-pack you could find was in the fridge and you made it spring a leak

As I haven't been able to get to the gym on account of my hurty leg, there's a nice soft belly developing

I don't believe that. The only soft thing about you is your heart

Fear not m'dear, as you're small but perfectly formed I've heard they are sorting out a home visit























Safe diving,

Jen was told to inject in her tummy and this was whilst preggers, the needle is about 10mm long and very sharp, it feels like a bee sting I am told. the only PITA is getting rid of the sharps boxes as Pharmacies and surgeries don't like taking them.

Jen also said that it didn't hurt when the fluid was going in either.

she alternated sides and looked black and blue as thats its desired effect, thin the blood.
