[QUOTE="kevinfitzgerald, post: 801057, member: 88583"] Everyone so different on this one. I remember using the metal and glass syringes in my early days They had to be boiled before every use to sterilise them. But when you weren't doing this at home you had to take the syringe out with you. I never once took a saucepan out with me as well and you weren't advised to use the needle only once (too expensive) as you only got about 10 needles on prescription. My experience is the same as Spikers. I use them until they feel like they need changing. I have been injecting since 1981 and have never got an infection due to over using a needle. No best way to do this I believe. No such thing as best in a world of individuals ! [/QUOTE]
