So I've been using now for almost 2 months. I see no difference in activity of my CD. Still gonna take one to my GI appointment later in the month and have one of them inject me to see how hard I have to push to get the pen to fire.

Randy, I think you are going to be the first one on here to try it, I don't recall anyone mentioning it on here. I wonder how hard it would be to get your insurance to approve your injections at the drs office since you are so thin?
Keep us posted.

That would be a pain in the ***. But good idea.

Update... So I took one of my hadlima injection pens to my GI appointment yesterday and had the pharmacist inject me. They were all surprised how hard she had to push into my abdomen to get it to fire. So at least they know now I'm not blowing smoke on my complaining. 😋

Randy,
Did they have any suggestions on how to make it easier?
I hope you are feeling better.

Some of these pens are hard to inject, at least you got some validation. My daughter gives her husband his insulin shots, they are pens, sometimes she has to stick him twice!

No suggestions. I have found if I tighten my tiny cut up abs, it doesn't push in as far. But since I have a 1 pack it won't work everywhere!😂
