BD, sticking yourself is actually easier, as the previous guy said.  You get to use the same site, round edge needles and they go right in, and you don't infultrate because the needle point is rounded not sharp.  I will never let someone else do it if I can help it.

I have been using Lidocaine cream which is mixed with something that starts with a p. But it lessens the pain. Makes it better to deal with. I'm gonna Google the buttonhole.
