how many sites are in your rotation
small bubble is fine
while im here a proper sharps bin costs almost nothing and pharmacies will take it back
technique probably
let it dry
drawing up with the same pin you inject with is fine, it just dulls the tip slightly

never recap a used pin. that is how people stick themselves
[edited]fresh pin
not a problem
how slowly should you actually push
for the archive the needle went in fine but it stung going in, alcohol or the compound
[edited]thats normal
nobody here should be telling you where to inject. we can tell you what we do
push slow
is 31G noticeably better than 29G or is it marginal

i mark the rotation in a notes app because the marks fade and i lost track twice
