29 minutes to pierce my skin, by far the hardest yet... and once I finally plunged in, breath held, it didn't hurt at all.

my blog of Hep C - starting 5 months into treatment, 6 months post, and on to SVR.

About Me
Healthy, strong, optimistic, and still surprised to learn I had Hepatitis C for who knows how long (viral load 11,700,000; genotype 1b). But finally after some seriously big decisions, 48 weeks of killing treatment, and 6 months of waiting, I'm now SVR (as of 9/21/07) and that means I did it.

Goodness me Ample! What is your skin made from;)
Seriously though, I can't imagine what it must be like to find it so difficult to inject oneself. I do most certainly take it for granted being quite the needle Lover;)
My heart goes out to you, you must be terrified to take 29 minutes.
But you're so right....it doesn't even hurt does it. I expect it to hurt each and everytime too, but it doesn't.
Loved the description of it:) They could be lyrics to a real noisy punk track from the 70's:) Hey, next time you could do it to The Ramones "Needles & Pins" very dreary sounding track.....you'd have it done in 2 minutes that way, just so you could turn the song off;)

P.s. I hope you didn't hold your breath for 29 minutes;)
It was more like extremely ridiculous... I just couldn't push it in! Glad I was alone - looked totally crazy, yelling at myself "come on!, you can do it!..." Weird, weird.
Wow, I react so differently, when I get everything together to go, I get this "do it, do it, do it" thing going around in my head, that I hear (saw an interview with him once) the psycho who killed John Lennon got! And that really scares me and all I want to do is get the "do it" noise to stop, and the only way I can get it to stop is to do it.
