I’ve done 3 doses of Symlin with the Pen Injector today.
I’ve forgotten that needles don’t hurt going in — my theory — the stopper. Pen needles don’t have to go through the stopper. So when I inject with the Symlin, going in doesn’t hurt, but the very final push of the plunger does — from the pH of the Symlin.
I’ll let you know after a week how bad it is. It usually takes that many tries before the needle starts getting annoying.
As for the vials — I have about a month’s worth of vials, so I’m going to use the pens "out" and the vials at home. That will give a good cushion for when Medco decided to drive me nuts — though they’ve been good on Symlin.
