Mounjaro jabs, how much pain did/do you experience?

Just that really. I'm contemplating trying Mounjaro but I'm a wuss about needles. sheepish laugh I do realise it's not a needle like a hypodermic but I'm still a bit nervous... how painful actually are the jabs, in general? TIA...

I imagined it would be a needle of the sort used to take blood, and really couldn't think how I would do it (and I'm not even needle phobic). Actually it is microscopic and I couldn't even feel my first jab and thought I hadn't done it right. Nothing to worry about.

There's a thread for referral codes, please stop posting them on threads about people's experiences. It makes the rest of the post very disingenuous as it just sounds like you're shilling for business.

And personally OP, I would steer clear of any referral code suppliers out of principle, even if it does save a bit of money. It's getting ridiculous all the people trying to sign others up to what is pretty strong medication (I'm on MJ myself so definitely not against it!) just so they can get a discount themselves and those bloody codes appearing on every discussion thread about it. I actually don't think those kind of ongoing referral schemes should be allowed with medication. Choose a supplier who is easily contactable and ethical. I like Oushk but Asda were also fine for me; although higher priced for the early doses.

Another one for zero pain. I honestly didn't think it was in, even though I watched it go in!

Same here! Was sure that it hadn't gone in as you can't feel a thing!

I don't feel the needle, but u can feel when the fluid starts going in even though I do it really slowly.But certainly nothing to worry about.

Thanks all! All the advice has been really helpful. I've decided to take the plunge. 😃

Zero pain at all, thought I'd messed it up and not given the medication until I checked that the amount of fluid in the pen had gone down!
