ok i posted in an old thread and was suggested to quit bumping it...so here i am
Ok my origional question was: I ordered u-100 .3ml/8mm needles. I got a bit anxious and forgot about the mixing needles... I also have glotropin 8iu bottles. it came with 10ml of Sterile water...
this is what i did. I took .8ml's of the "sterile water" and did the slow injection into the powder 8iu bottle. I then slowly mixed it till it was clear. I dont feel I need to use Bac/water since my bottles will be used in 3-4 days anyhow.
After the 3+hrs i read about how much u need to mix this. This would make a 10unit mark on my .3ml needles 1-IU correct? Is it bad that i just used the same needle and drew 3 times from sterile water in order to get the proper amount?
I ordered mixing needles today so i now will have 1ml/1/2inch needles now to mix with. I just want to make sure i didn't really do anything wrong.
I'm a first time user so the dosage is starting out small just with 1IU for a week then ill slowly progress up. I was vastly confused by the whole process but I am starting to get more comfortable with it. So i just want to make sure i'm doing it all correctly.
Last thing. Being i'm a first timer. I did'nt even feel the injection (yes i was extremely sterile). However today its slightly tender no bruising or red marks any thing like that just tender. Is this a norm or something I should be concerned with?
