[QUOTE="jmzwy, post: 154396, member: 24750"] This is been said before and this will be a very straight-forward post, but the low dead-space fixed needle/syringes are well worth it. I recently switched to daily shots (which by the way has been extremely beneficial and will get its own post after my next set of labs). Anyway, upon switching to daily, I recognized that a substantial amount of T would remain in the needles that I'd been using for almost a year since starting therapy. I was using the luer-lock (the detachable type) easy touch 27 guage, 1/2 inch needle/syringe. I wanted to switch because of the lost medication from every injection - I do 18 mg a day and I'd estimate there would be 5/6 mg lost with every injection, perhaps more sometimes, so basically 1/3 gone. Anyway, I called Defy and asked for the low dead space fixed insulin needles/syringes. they don't sell them so I ordered from OTC wholesale after after reading threads here from Madman, Nelson, etc. Just started using these and they are so worth it. I use the .5 ml syringe with 27 gauge needle, 1/2". Not only do they fill faster, the needles I swear are much sharper and I feel almost absolutely nothing in my injection areas (rotate between delts, quads, and hip/glute-medius).
