is 200mg per week too much??

As an added benefit, the smaller volume makes insulin syringes more practical, which is important for long term sustainability.

Never cared for SQ T injections personally. I tend to lump up! What I do really like though is 27ga x 1/2" anywhere. Delts, glutes, wherever. Doesn't matter if part IM or part SQ or both.

Same here. I ALWAYS bruise with SQ. I inject into the quad with a 28G 1/2 inch insulin syringe. Alternate left and right.

I must be remarkably clumsy/unlucky and/slow-witted , I'm thinking the latter. The last syringes I ordered for slin pins were actually 1ml tuberculin syringes with slide on needles vs the usual Terumo U-100 insulin syringe with an integral needle ( the 2 aren't actually the same thing). Anyway finally got a bit of oil through the 27ga. needle, decided to push more air back into the vial and pull again. When I pushed the air in, the taper lock/slide on needle, slid right off, and it sprung a leak.
It wasn't a huge loss, but I did hold a moment of silence for the waste. Never have gotten the hang of drawing oils with a fine ga. needle.

Yeah, I'm plagued by brain farts all the time when ordering from the internet. I ordered a case of paper towels once and got a potty training chair for my 17 year old daughter. I'm bad at returning things too. Need a potty trainer?

Most definitely the two-piece units will not work with oil unless they are lure lock. The one-piece insulin syringes are the way to go. Almost not waste.

Now that's funny.

LOL, no sir, I don't, but appreciate the info. I have to ask, did you tell your daughter what you purchased for her?

We all got a laugh out of it. I told her I'm saving it for her baby shower, but I'll probably be in wheel chair by then.
