Insulin Needles

[frenchy]

how does one inject with a fresh needle if the needle on an insulin syringe is not detachable ? Is there a device made to load out of a vial without dulling the needle??

nope, you just use it after pulling from the vial. their so sharp, it doesnt matter.

what are you shooting ?

seems like I have to push really hard. Maybe the GH is making my skin thicker. It is a side effect locally I imagine. Maybe I should rotate my site a bit more??

i dont know if the plunger comes out or not but u could use one needle to draw and pull the plunger out of another and load it through the back then tip it up and put the pluger back as u tip.

thats a good idea. i think my terumo come out.

also you can get some 27g and 30g 1/2" needles for regular syringes. would be kinda hard to measure ius though.

ya if you dont want to dull the needle then draw out the desired amount in a 3ml seringe with a 23g or whatever size needle, if the seringe is terumo, then the needle will twist off, so draw the desired amount in the 3ml seringe, twist the needle off of that seringe and insert the insulin needle into the small hole where you twisted off the 23g needle and draw out the solution

I think it works better when you angle the shot with pointy side to skin I did that last night and it worked fine...

exactly, some say you dont have to, but why would they put a bevel like that if they didnt want you to angle the shot.

if i angle it just right is painless, other times it hurts like a bitch
