Is anyone else on Octreotide Acetate for post ileostomy chronic diarrhea? I inject it (subcutaneous) in my stomach twice a day. I put the Humira in my thighs. However, I'm beginning to have trouble finding injection sites. I have many stretch marks from constant weight change. I've bounced back & forth between 115 lbs and 165 lbs every few years due to mal-absorption and prednisone. My entire stomach is covered in bruises, tender spots, scars, and stretch marks. I don't want to take an injection site away from the Humira though. With the RA I have trouble with the hard to reach sites (like the back of the bicep). If anyone has any suggestions at all I would be most appreciative.
