Thanks for the replies, guys. I apologize if the post came off as a bit cranky in tone.
They took forever to get 18 gauge sharps ordered (3-4 days later), but they didn't fit the syringes that the 25 gauges came in, so it was pointless. They didn't understand that both sharps would have to fit the same syringe for me to draw, switch the sharp, and then inject.
I got exasperated with them and just asked for twice the amount of 25 gauge needle/syringe pairs.. so, at the very least I will not be injecting with the same needle as I draw with.
Only down side is that it takes forever to load the syringe.. thankfully it is only 0.3 ml (60 mg) test 2/ week.
My HCG compounding pharmacy, on the other hand, has always been lovely to me. They pre-fill the syringes, give me more needles than I ever need, and have dealt with ever-changing doses from the time I was on monotherapy (1500 and 2500 IU) to now (750 iu).
P.S. Thanks for the video on injections. I do the sub-Q with HCG into my belly and the IM into my thigh. Just starting the second week into this regimen and it's going well.
