im pretty fortunate (??) that ive been a type 1 diabetic for like two decades now, so injections, needles and poo poo are the easy part. figuring out the hormonal balance? impossible difficulty!!

Shifty Pony posted:it really surprised me that education materials for diabetes didn't have patients use a separate draw needle. I had spent so much time in trans spaces that I thought that was just how all injections were done to keep the needle as sharp and painless as possible. something about the diabetes needles makes it so they remain pretty sharp between the two, idk. i had to reuse needles a couple times when i was Exceptionally Poor and it still wasnt tooo bad

Shifty Pony posted:apparently injecting with the draw needle is routine for diabetes, but that's a SQ injection of only 0.2-1ml using a 30ga needle. giving the vial a wipe and letting it dry before drawing is all it takes. correct, i never heard of different needles for draw/inject until starting estrogen

mediaphage posted:my mil is a nurse, well, just retired now, and one of her biggest pet peeves is when professionals don't swap needles for injections since it blunts the needle (she gave me my flu vaccine in her kitchen one year lol) yeah, if i hadnt moved to an insulin pump i'd do it going forward, the swapped needles feel a lot better going in

Ciaphas posted:hell i said that much yesterday (in a spoiler bar admittedly ); i just didn't expect the danged things to ever leak, especially not at less than 3 months in i think warning folks about leaky tits (whether they think it's bad or a sign of hrt doing good) isn't tmi, it's important folks know that's a common thing.
