Injection question

[fistfullofsteel]

What's the odds that I get an infection because I injected 1 cc into one bicep and 1 cc into the other bicep with a syringe filled with 2 cc using the same needle?

Youll be ok Bro. Dont reuse needles though.

Yeah I used the same needle a few times, because I had no more and was in a situation where I was unable to get more....

luckly I was all good, but to be honest bro never again...lol...it hurts like a MF trying to get the same needle back in it's like it slides through the first time, but after that...the needle gets very DULL" bad idea..

GET more pins bro, it's better that way....do you know any one who works as a paramedic?? if so they have some nice pins , detachable needles, so you can get like 50 of them and use the same plunger (if it's the same gear of course...)

You should be fine. Just dont do it again.

it's not the smartest thing I've ever done, but I had no
problems with it.

Wouldn't recommend it though. Pins are cheap, just buy more.

Isnt it a high risk that the plunger get some bacteries or dirt in it if you use the same for a long time?

If you were to use the same barrel over and over then yes, The longer you use it the more chance there is of picking up and infection.

i mean injecting one cc into one bicep and immediately into the other bicep. when i use and draw from two different needles, it seems that i come up short on the second c.c.

If you follow a sterial process you should be fine. (wash hands, prep the area and shoot, place back into the packaging) Its really cheap to get pins. Look at gpz.com and see what you can get.

You could go to a drug store and get a few to get you by till you get more. I tell them its for my b12 shots and they sell me a few.
