Starting MTX

[D Foster]

So yes I can do it (once I get over the initial squeamishness)! Hell NO I don't want to! I still hate having my bloods done having had two sets and a flu jab in one day in December and having bloods done on an almost weekly basis right now.

Just remember it's nothing like having the bloods done, it's just a tiny needle going under the skin.  

I just used to measure four fingers distance from my belly button then pinch a couple of inches of skin with my left hand then holding the syringe at the bottom of the container with the right hand just above the needle just push it in at a almost straight angle, you can then transfer the syringe to the left hand that you were pinching the skin with and press the plunger steadily down with the right hand , with holding the syringe at the bottom where is goes into the skin you have complete control and then you can withdraw it in one quick movement. No problems at all, did it for over three years with MTX every week and now with Stelara .
Best of luck and you will soon get used to it.
