Really?


The needle was straight as an arrow going in when I re-capped it. Somehow it bent inside the cap and poked through and jabbed me right in the thumb. Hurt like a mother. I swear it hit an artery lol cuz I bled profusely for like 20 mins. Went through 3 blood soaked gauze pads before it stopped. Just thought I'd share my near death experience.


Anyone ever have this BS happen before?

Yup, good learning experience for how I recap though, scoop it, than fingers on the sides at the base of the cap, or scoop and tap it on the wall
 
YES, I have had that happen before with both slin pins and syringes same as yours.
 
This is why most medical establishments have a protocol that *prohibits* recapping, and instead have sharps storage for disposal purposes. It's bad enough when it's *your* bodily fluids on the needle, but someone else's?
