I have been on Avonex for almost 3 months. When I started I titrated with the regular needle. The 1st two shots were painless. The next two hurt a lot. I wasn't worried about it though because I was going to start the Avonex pen.
When I started the Avonex pen, I have had the same experience. The first few injections were painless. The last two have been pretty painful. I thought at first that I was injecting too low on my outer thigh but when I went higher, it didn't make any difference.
Has anyone had this experience with the Avonex pen and if so, do you have any tips to help relieve the pain?
Thanks!
