My Syringes came in via mail today and so I did my first injection right away. Since Im doing Monotherapy I started with 5mg to see where it leads me. This was also the first time injecting myself with anything. It was kinda scary, but next time it will be way easier.

I do two subq injections a week. It's honestly kind of a lottery. Sometimes it's painless, other times it stings something awful. Way better than 2-3x daily pills tho.
