Message: <blockquote data-quote="cheesepig" data-source="post: 333745" data-attributes="member: 53479">Few years ago not long after diagnosis I was injecting (hypodermic not pen) in a railway station. Reasonably discreetly, facing away from crowd, in a corner. An arm suddenly grabbed me around the neck from behind, with an incoherent shout. In agony from a needle ripped across my stomach, I punched wildly behind me at where the head responsible for the arm would be. I turned round to find a transport copper with a busted lip and nose. Served the **** right for listening to someone mumble 'junkie'.I just inject where and when I need to, surprised that anyone ever doesn't. My only caveats are 1. Small kids - don't want to be jostled, don't want to prong one with a needle2. genuine needle phobics. That was a nasty experience for both of us, I check now.</blockquote>
