does the injection site matter for how quickly it hits
thigh or abdomen, does absorption actually differ
push slow
rotate
abdomen two inches out from the navel, avoiding anything that has been injected in the last month
follow up 31G 8mm for everything. i tried the 12.7mm once and never went back
is a small air bubble in the barrel a problem subcutaneously
quick one i bled a bit, is that a needle depth thing
update on the earlier thing the needle went in fine but it stung going in, alcohol or the compound
if you are getting a lot of bruising, look at how fast you are pushing before you blame the needle, we shall see
