Smaller Needles

November 20th, 2008 · No Comments

I started using a new Copaxone prescription and noticed that caps were black instead of blue. I didn’t think too much of it until I noticed that it didn’t hurt as bad. I compared the needles and they were smaller than the blue caps! I had heard that the needles were getting smaller but that was at the time I started the medication. I kind of thought I had the small ones all the time.

Just to verify I am not crazy, I called Shared Solutions and they said 49% had less site reactions/pain with the new needles. I am thrilled!

I was having a lot of panic/anxiety over hitting the auto-jet button lately. I have had to do some deep breathing and made Tom keep his mouth shut until I was done. If you knew Tom, you would know it is very hard to keep him quiet.

Yay!
