I feel like a drug addict......
So the pharmacy I deal with delivers my prescriptions, and they delivered my Bravelle.
Oh my I have never seen so many syringes before I can open up my own drug business.
We took the class, and DH did come with me. Thank goodnes, but I think I can handle injecting myself.
I hope all works out this month.

It's really not bad...The subcutaneous ones (in your stomach or thigh, I prefer stomach) are so small. They are like insulin needles. Maybe 1/2 inch long, and as thin as a small safety pin.
The IM ones (intramuscular) are a bit scarier. LONG a$$ needle (maybe 2.5 inches) in your butt. Doesn't hurt nearly as much as it looks. Trust me at that!
Some ovarian stimulating drugs (Gonal F, Follistim) now come in "pen" form. It looks like a marker with a dial. Just dial up the amt and press the button. No mixing!!!!! Much quicker!!!

It's not that bad, but you do feel like a pin cushion after a while, between the frequent blood tests and the injections.
