I did my first ever aimovig injection at home by myself. Go me!
It wasn't nearly as bad as I'd expected. I had done two previously at the doctor's office under nurse's supervision into my stomach. Yuck. I was able to do this one into my leg. Not sure which is preferable yet. It hurt but not as badly as the clinical trial injections. I guess maybe they changed the formulation.
I lived on the edge and didn't use the alcohol wipes first.
I'm trying another science experiment and going back down to one dose, which I was on for a couple years at first. It's so expensive that I'd rather try this and see if it works. Or at the very least, maybe one injection every two weeks, so there isn't any abrupt falloff.
