I just took my first Procrit 20,000 one hour ago. It didn't hurt. I warmed it up just like people told me on this site. I can't wait until it kicks in. Supposed to recheck CBC Monday. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR ADVICE!

I know what you mean, I can't stand needles but I am really excited about this one, some say it take some time before it kicks in
Good luck to you, hope your energy level feels nice...:)

It takes a while to kick in. Don't expect miracles.....a little at a time.

I took the shot thurs. it was easy, friday morn I had total body aches and headache, I took my 11th interfer shot fri eve., needless to say my week end was done. I'm trying to stay patient while waiting for it to start working. I keep telling myself "this is only temporary"
God Bless All
