Not a fan of Emily Clarke. She took my extra needles.

I had to do a few of them myself and it was not nearly as bad as i thought it'd be. I recommend looking on youtube to see how to do it yourself and give it a try. good luck!

What a stupid uninformed assumption. Only if OP has insurance with a home health benefit. And then, the service provided would have to be deemed necessary to require a nurse, and if you can give yourself the injection, it's probably not covered.

Duh, you pay out of pocket.

My nurse at SG told me she would do it for me when my husband went put of town. I ended up not needing her but she offered. Not sure if all nurses will do this. I would have had to go to SG right before she left for the day but that would have been way better than tryin myself. Hope you find someone!

Do it yourself. I was scared the first few times but it's pretty easy. Practice while your husband is still home...

Do it yourself! If you do it correctly you barely notice it.

I did all of mine. Where there's a will, there's a way.

My husband is going to be away and I need to have pio and estrogen shots in my hip. I don't think I can do them myself and nobody that I've told about fertility treatments can do it. I think my only option is to hire someone the few nights my DH is away. Does anyone have someone to recommend in NOVA? Also, how much does it cost? I might end up trying to do it myself but the hip seems difficult.
