[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've accidentally injected myself with epinephrine (I'm not allergic; it was my son's Auvi-Q- long story) and I just felt jumpy and jittery for an hour or so, like I'd had too much coffee.[/quote] My friend is an ER physician and she said that people often accidently hold the pen backwards and so they inject into their own thumb instead of the patient's thigh. FYI you need to go to the ER if you do this because the thumb is too small for all of that constricting medicine and you could lose your thumb if you ignore it. (Sorry for a tangent but wanted to say this because I don't think most people know this!)[/quote]
