Autoject failure
Posted: Mon Mar 29, 2010 5:30 pm
just thought I would give copaxone and autoject users a heads up.
Saturday night I did all the prep for a shot into my right hip. I placed the autoject and pressed the button and all the sounds I am used to hearing were not present, so I took a look. The entire syringe was half-way out of the autoject and the meds were not being injected. When I took everything apart, the two little glass lips had broken off.
I called shared solutions today, and was told it was autoject failure. They are getting me a new one. I happen to have a new autoject here, and will use it starting tonight. I was grateful I have done well over 1,000 of these injections, otherwise I think I would have totally freaked.
