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 mean, people inject insulin daily, so how is this any different? Spoiler alert: it’s not. These are insulin syringes they’re using, and based on the needle length, they’re definitely doing it subcutaneously, just like insulin. Diabetics can’t pay for a nurse to inject them every day, nor should they. Subcutaneous injections are incredibly easy to administer; you just inject the medication into the fat layer (not a vein).
