I had a question about injection procedures, so I found an article that gave step by step instructions. This is from the article: "From a new syringe take the needle off of it and place it on the syringe that you have your liquid in. This will give you a new, undulled needle. Inserting it through the top of your bottle will have dulled your previous needle."
My question is: Does everyone follow this procedure to the tee, or can you just use the same needle, regardless of it being a bit "dull"?
Thanks in advance.

i guess i just use the "dull" needle. it goes in and sometimes it hurts but i wouldnt waste needles and money. just pinch your nuts and you wont feel the dull needle go in lol

needles are cheap so you may as well just use new ones, if not just keep your environment and tools sterile... if you use the same needle you used for retreiving from the vial it would be best to always, regarldess, wipe the rubber with alcohol etc

*also to swab your injection site... asperate and dispose of all needles in the proper hazardous waste bucket you can get at your local pharmacy

I change pins everytime, although when I am low on then I will just repoke with the same pin. I actually use a 20ga to(makes it a faster draw) then change the pin to a 25ga to shot.They are cheap bro. I buy the pins tops for drawing separte.

I use 18g for my injections gets it in there faster and you get a bigger "rush" that the media always talks about. :D Only time I ever use a needle after it goes through the stopper is with slin pins for HCG and slin. Like everyone said needles are cheap 5 bucks for 100 or something like that. I could probably find that in my couch. :)
