"I used a 150 mg syringe for 8 months. It wasn't effective. Finally, when I went on 300 mg, the pain really subsided from a 10 to a 3. The pain was worse than the 3rd-degree burn I got on my thumb. Mainly, I have tendon pain in my hamstrings, making it impossible to ride in a car because I couldn't sit. I also had extreme hip pain when trying to sleep on my side (both sides were equally affected). The 300 mg (2 syringes) lasts only 3 weeks and takes a few days to kick in too. So I'm really just getting about 2 1/2 weeks of relief each month. Still, without it, I was in severe, debilitating pain all the time. The only side effect I know of is my nose is really, really dry inside."
