Hi guys. I just did my second Avonex injection. After I took the needle out of my leg, some of the Avonex liquid started coming back out of the needle hole. Has anyone else experienced this?? Karen xx
Hi Karen, It hasn’t happened to me so far, sorry. I take it the first one went without any trouble? Just to check, are you counting to 10 before you take it out? (it was the only thing I could think of!!) Sam x
Hi Sam. The first one was fine. Yes I did count to ten, but may have rushed it 
Also with hindsight I realise that last week I was sitting down, but tonight I stood with my foot on a stool so my muscle was probably tensed rather than relaxed. Didn’t hurt again, though, so that’s a bonus

Hi Kaz, I count 20 millionaires, did you have any side effects this week. Joy
Jen, I still had side effects so I obviously got most of it x Hi Joy! I did, but it was different this week. I went several hours with nothing, then started getting shooting pains in my arms and legs and couldn’t get warm. I also had a headache (which I still have), but no violent shaking this time, so that’s a bonus! I had headaches on and off for most of last week, and I don’t know if its just coincidence but I haven’t had much of an appetite either (which is unheard of for me!) xxx
Hi Kaz, sorry to hear you had them again, its such a long time since I began mine in all honesty I can’t remember how long it was before they stopped happening regularly. Lets hope they subside soon for you lovely and if they are going to happen its just occasionally. They are exhausting and I find the dreadful shivering creates additional muscular fatigue and discomfort. Fingers crossed next week will be the week it doesnt happen. Take care Joy xx
Thank you Joy xxx
