I would rather inject in my arm. I just haven’t figured out how to do that. I do have to take a few deep breaths and try to relax as I inject. It’s a mental thing. I still hate injections.

The doctor taught me how to do the arm by rolling the back/under part of arm and sticking there. But IF I didn’t get it the first time, I’d toss the syringe, IF I missed the second time, I just gave up for that weeks shot. Try standing with your arm/body against a door opening and press your upper arm against it and “roll” it forward and it should leave you a good injection site. I haven’t done this in over 15 years though. A good cross country move was the best thing for my allergies. My allergy doctor use to have a segment on the local tv station and I believe it was syndicated . . . so you can imagine my surprise when I saw him here in N AL noon news.
