    Question C'mon Guys Ease My Anxiety...

    Ok out of the literally a couple hundred times I have injected my body with a syringe I have ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS drawn with one tip and shot with the other... JUST MY WAY OF BEING SANITARY....

    TODAY though... TODAY.... I didn't... I drew then set my needle down because SOMEONE HAD TO KNOCK AT THE DOOR.... I spaced it for like an hour and then I was all like... OH YAH I gotta INJECT... soooooooo

    I go back to my NEEDLE and I am thinking and I am like yah... yah ... YAH i changed that tip... stuck it in my delt... WENT IN KINDA RUGGED AINT GONNA LIE... Went through my standard Procedure ... then I was like WAIT A MINUTE !!!

    I didn't change the tip !! AHHHHHHHH!!!

    So I am sitting here... hours later... perusing the forum and im like... OWWW ... WHAT THE HELL !!! So i thought HEY why I don't just ask if anyone else has ever done this unsanitary procedure before... because this being Inject number 30 this cycle and there hasn't been an OWW... yet... So I was just wondering if maybe... just maybe... I could have created an unsterile environment for bacteria to breed in by not changing the tip....


    STUPID QUESTION I KNOW... JUST PLEASE EASE MY ANXIETY ABOUT THIS BROS !!!

    you're fvcked. big time.

    but seriously, after you drew and set that pin down...did you cap it?

    (if so, then you're fine)

    Even if you didn't cap it I doubt anything will happen.

    I wouldn't worry about it.

    Just don't do it again.

    changing the needle isn't for sanitary purposes, it's because the needle dulls after being stuck in the rubber to get whatever compound you are injecting,

    wiping the top of the vial is the sanitary part, if you capped the syringe before setting it down you should be fine, if not, then you'll just have to see, but i would bet you are fine, if not then you just go to the doc and get some antibiotics, no biggie either way bro

    Bingo, I never switch needles unless the needle sucked out the last drops of juice out of a vial.

    The only problem of you getting an injection is the needle is sterile, so if it didn't touch any surfaces you should primarily be ok, it is possible bacteria formed on it so we will wait and see.

    did you swab your delt with an alcohol pad before injecting?

    it was "kinda rugged" cause you are used to nice new sharp tips. they dull a little after going in the rubber stoppers.

    you shouldn't die, but your arm will probably fall off in your sleep

    Hahaha You guys are the Best !!

    Yah so I did cap it... always cap it before i make the swap... always use alcohol swabs.. i tell ya i am a stickler when it comes to sanitation.. I got a bad CELLULITS infection once that developed into MRSA from an unsanitary procedure and spent a week in the hospital on a vancomycin drip... intense... it kept spreading... the docs didnt know if they could stop it... scary shit bros... so since then i always always make sure i am clean....
    Alcohol wipe on bottle of Test and B-Complex Bottle. Alcohol wipe my injection site... twice and once after injection... always ... everytime... total of 5 wipes per injection procedure...
    So it's a new day... my delt still hurts like hell... lil swollen today... not red... not warm to the touch... so NO infection yet...guess it's just a waiting game....

    SIDE NOTE: I HAVE A BOTTLE ON PENICILLIN DOES ANYONE THINK IT WOULD BE WISE TO JUMP ON IT NOW OR JUST GO TO THE DOC IF SYMPTOMS WORSEN AND DONT IMPROVE.

    Dude, if you've ever seen intervention or anything else with addicts shootin up.. I've seen people lick the needle before injecting, I've seen people pull water straight out of a public toilet to use to mix things up... I think people underestimate the strength of the body's immune system
