Using a syringe multiple times

[J4CKT]

I thought the same thing about a 22g. Yikes! I use to use 23 and switched to 25. Now the 23 looks big to me. The smaller the better!

Absolutely. I even draw with a 23g so as not to dmg the rubber on the vial too much lol.

Pinning with anything bigger than a 25 is just increasing pain and the chances of scar
tissue.

Has anyone actually had any trouble getting something to flow through a 25 and actually
needed a 23g to pin with?

I cannot believe some of you guys are so fucking cheap. Why risk an infection over pennies? My health is worth more than than.

Agreed, when they get an abscess 3 inches into their ass and a cigarette box amount of tissue has to be removed, they may reconsider.

I thought I had a problem when I first started using them. I think it was just that I wasn't use to how much slower it will go in. Which is actually a good thing and I try to spend at least a full minute inj 2 ml. Another thing I think helps is warming up the oil. I just set it in a measuring cup with hot water for a few minutes and g2g!

I know what you mean about the stopper. I have had some where the oil with nearly come out when put upside down. I try to draw from different spots on the stopper to avoid.

i've reused my own here and there when funds were too low to order more...just a few times to get by...i don't think it's as bad as everyone makes it out to be...it does hurt more each time and you're increasing your chance of getting a bacterial infection or abcess by doing it though

You mean you boiled the syringe and needle and reused them? That's gotta start to hurt the tip of that needle is... delicate.

In a pinch I have reused. I will reuse my 22 g draw needle a few times before I throw it away tho. I draw then swap it for a 25 g and store the 22 g draw needle in a clean container

I definitely not a certainty to happen but it is a certainly a risk which is cheap
enough not to have to take that's all. Ofcourse though money does get tight
at times but as long as you can afford gear can definitely afford not to have to
reuse needles and syringes.

Just my 2 cents but everyone has their ways i guess.

THIS. So much scar unnecessary scar tissue can be avoided just by going slower.

lol, I've done that once! lol, back in the day shit was hard to come by, needles were just as hard to come by as gear and we paid 3-5$ per needle lol, at least this moron (me) did! lol

I hate when I forget to use my alcohol pad. I always get it out, but sometimes opening needles and heating gear I forget to use it. Been lucky so far!

 

[Get_Swole]

I rarely reuse anything, I draw with a 22 or 23 and pin with a 25 or 23 if im out, I just cap and chunk both normally I have a hundred or more since I buy quite a bit at a time.

 

[Presser]

damn i draw with 18 and shoot with 22 x 1.5 lol, geeeesh

I'm a baby when it comes to needles even after all these years lol. 23 is about the biggest I will stab myself with.

believe me, if i could get away with a smaller gauge i would! but years of harpooning has left me with so much scar tissue that i need a straw with a point on the end of it to inject with lol, if i used a 23 or smaller i would push so hard that the juice would squirt out the opposite end of the syringe lol, its happened! lol

haha I have had that happen when I do it myself, when I have it done, I can still use a 25g although only with heated (thinned) oil

I've been doing quads more than ever now. Every once in a while I'll hit a spot on my glute or delts where there isn't anything going in! lol

I have been using my long head of my tricep now for tren since it's about 1/2 a cc.
