Highlights from this day
  • sharps_bin_sid — i inject the back of my own arm and it is awkward but doable with a mirror 11:03
  • chlorhex — whats your sharps disposal setup, mine is a jar and i know thats wrong 11:07
  • sharps_bin_sid — i keep getting a small welt at the site, technique or reaction 11:11
  • taper_or_not — a fresh pin for the injection hurts less. whether thats worth the extra dead space is your call, take that with a pinch of salt 11:37

is there any reason to warm the vial in your hand first

welts at the site are usually a mild local reaction and rotation sorts it
