Needles

First time i used a retractable syringe, the only 25g they had at cvs, awhile back, i didnt know it was retractable. After injecting i flipped out thinking the needle was inside my lat. They draw and inject faster for some reason, the barrel seems bigger. But if you have any scar tissue, and hit the plunger too hard, it will retract mid inject and now your screwed.

Gpz is cheap and fast but the terumo syringes have been dull and ive had to swap before, wouldnt pierce skin. Just got a box of 100 at the pharmacy for $15..not too bad. Cheaper if you get the whole box.

Curious as to when you got dull terumo pins as I've NEVER had that happen with them. I use terumo 18g to draw and use my 23g to pin. Never once have I had a hard time not piercing skin. I feel like you may be over exaggerating a little saying it won't pierce skin as even an actual dull needle can get through all 3 layers easily. Not trying to sound like a dick, just curious.

Orders ive gotten ive had to switch out a couple out of each. 25g. Could also be due to scar tissue but havent had the same problem with other brands. Indents the skin, no entry, switch needle, goes in smooth. Ive heard this issue come up before.

I have had a dull Terumo once. It penetrated but felt like a fucking harpoon. Tough entry. Ended up with a small bruise around the injection site. That said I still use Terumos.
 
I use bd I like them a little better than turemo. They don't look as pretty but they seem sharper to me. To each his own I guess...
