Pinning question

[Berserker88]

Hey guys quick Q, is there a good way to 'lube' a pin before jabbing yourself? WITHOUT having to waste abit of gear by pushing a tiny bit out?

Asking because last nights injection felt abit worse then usually cause it felt like the pin was stuck to the skin and muscle.

I personally think the little bit that comes out is the easiest and best way, get rid of the air bubbles and adds nice lubrication

agreed little bit that comes out is the easiest and best way, cant see any other way being safe or sterile. or at least I personally wouldnt chance it

after u draw your oil out do u switch needles and put a new one on? if not then maybe the needle got slightly dull from drawing out your oil. i always use a fresh one

Nah I use a fresh one of course! It was literally the 'shaft' of the pin that was really dry so it felt like it was 'catching' on the skin + muscle.

Guess ill need to waste a little gear!
