    re-use needles?

    Here's my problem, im in the middle of a cycle and i've ran out of needles and syringes. i've ordered some but the order is delayed. so my last shot i saved the needles and syringe just incase i'd need to reuse them. what is the best way to re sanitize that stuff incase my stuff doesn't arrive in time for my next shot?

    You can't go buy any at a pharmacy?

    Dont do it. Thats all I can say, nothing is worth putting a dirty peice of metal in your body. Sure you may be fine, hell people get stabbed etc and dont get infections etc. But why risk it.

    man, just think of the skin that got lodged in the needle the first time you used it and sat there rotting.......nasty shit.

    yeah u can buy needles anywhere they are technically OTC but some pharmacies require u to get insulin , or b12 or have some kind of record on file that u need them to keep down the real druggies, but yeah we sell them at my pharmacy for a quarter a piece, and like 27.00 a box so u don't wanna go there it might not look like it but that needle does get bent and does get dull even when going through a rubber stopper and skin.

    Not flaming you but......you should have known your pins were getting low prior to starting and delayed your cycle a couple days. You can buy pins online and have them at your door in a week.

    ive reused needles back in the day. i know now it isnt a good idea. but i just pulled in alcohol and pushed it back out about 5 times and i never got an infection. it does suck that the pin gets more dull and it hurts and bleeds a bit more than a fresh pin.

    Why dont people buy like 2 or 3 times what they need now a days.? Order a box of 100 online and be done with it for a while. Needles are cheap enough you can just go buy double the amount and not be out that much. I always say get everything you need before you start. No need in delaying a shot for a few days or a week just b/c you run out of needles. Hold off on starting a week and get all your stuff if thats what it takes.
