Hi Zelada
Whilst you wait for the other users to reply with their experiences do give the helpline a call on 0808 800 6000.
Here you can talk through your concerns with someone who will offer you a listening ear as well as support and information. Lines are open today 10 to 2pm and weekdays 9 to 5pm.

It’s not sore but your arm may ache a little over the vein.
Make sure you take some layers with you. I was absolutely freezing and shook all through the injection of this drug. Maybe it had been in the fridge. I only had it once due to side effects but my arm was tender for months afterwards
