[QUOTE="hankjam, post: 1977733, member: 104954"] It's interesting how things change. Used to get a nick on hands and think nothing of it and now.... sepsis.. really not something to take lightly... still give said nick/lancet hole a good lick with tongue first thing in the morning... In terms of risk, it could be suggested that pine needle is more likely to come fully loaded with a range of bad guys compared to a lancet, which came sterile and was only ever used on "clean" skin... Having written the above, I am off to replace month old lancet for tomorrows test. Glad to read you are recovered [USER=100904]@Pipp[/USER] [/QUOTE]
