I have only ever used fingers 2 3 4 on my left hand (top and bottoms sides) in a rotation
BUT I now have my 1st finger skin thickening and turning hard to the point its almost solid.

I think my brains got confused along the line here the other fingers are soft as a babies thingy :¬)

very strange (going to try sand paper later) hehehe
 
Ok, so you'll have to make the big change and use the other hand - sinister!

Seriously though, it's strange how blood flow can be different from different fingers or sides.

And don't you hate it when it really hurts and you can't get a drop :(
 
hehe

hehe yes :¬)

But the weird thing is its my 1st finger that has hardened up and I never use it at all for pricking
the ones I do use are soft and flexible still

Very strange to me :¬) it must be a coincidence :¬)
 
i pretty much use the same edge of the middle left finger and its callused, i always assumed this was a good thing and just ignore it, although i do need a club hammer to get the needle in
 
I sometimes try using the outer sides of my middle fingers, but it seems like being a contortionist compared the the inner sides, especially on the left hand!
