Re: Needle used twice ??

my post was not directed at you bro. but shooting a new pin has very minimal risk where as shooting a used one the chances of infection grow exponentially

No offense taken bro and I do agree with you 100%. There is risk in doing it. I was just telling the dude, if I 'had to' what I would do. But as common practice, I would not recommend it.

NO...that's why you should always have all your stuff before you start...I would rather skip a shot than risk an infection....NO WAY !

Re: Needle used twice ??

I got cellulitus a year ago from accidentally re-using a needle. Had to go to the hospital and couldnt walk for a week. One of the worst pains ever. The docs wouldnt give me pain meds because they didnt feel bad for me, said it was my fault.

NEVER REUSE YOUR FUCKING PINS.

Thx for the pic O2...Amazing how much a needle gets destroyed from doing it once or twice...

Re: Needle used twice ??

No bro, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean to say you were wrong or that you were saying false things. I just gave my 'personal' experience. My 'personal' experience has yeiled absolutely NO probs from reusing needles. So therefore, I am not wrong in stating my 'personal' experience. Also, I clearly stated that it was 'back in the day', in other words I used to reuse a long time ago. Curently, I only use the same needle to hit bis (1/2 cc each) and I will until I see evidence that it 'will' cause probs. Maybe and possibly are things for chance. Absolutes are things I take in to account. If there is scientific proof that reusing a needle 'will' cause issues then I would say never ever do it. However, I have known hundreds of gear users who have all at one time or another had to reuse and NONE of them EVER had an issue. And I'm talking about guys who used a pin and then saved it to use again next week and never had issues. Hell, back in the day I've went through a dozens pins and couldn't get anymore and boiled and alcoholed the ones I had a resued them all with no issue. So, there is no 'absolute' in risk. Now, with that said, do I recommend reusing as a common practice? Hell no! I never said it was ok to make it common practice. I just gave the guy an example of what I had done when in his situation. I hope you understand my point now. I do not consider reusing needles to be smart common practice, but I also have never 'personally' seen or had any probs from doing so. I hope I didn't not come off the wrong way, just trying to better explain myself the best I can.

Hey no prob ! good luck to u
