[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 97523, member: 12578"] .Reusing needles and injecting through clothing are 2 different matters. When you don't have to pay for needles, I see no point in re-using them.(a very diferent matter for those who have to pay for their healthcare) A bit of research finds a few case studies of abcesses due to injections before single use needles were available. One Scottish doctor commented on his abstract back in 1986 There was actually a study in 1997 on injecting through clothing . abstract here [url]http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?cmd=Retrieve&db=pubmed&dopt=AbstractPlus&list_uids=9051365&query_hl=2[/url] A note of caution though from a 2006 article: [i](Though this is the only one I found and lots of people inject through clothing[/i]) This is a case of a lady who developed ulcers in the area she injected through clothing some 15 years after stopping the practice. [url]http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/cgi-bin/fulltext/112584902/HTMLSTART[/url] (caution photo of ulcer) Personally, if I still injected I'd do it through clothing when it was easier. [/QUOTE]
