They blew it off as if it's a rare occurance (at least 3 in every box I've had since I learned to do manual injections!)

They did send me replacement needles...maybe I'll open those up and see if they're any sharper. Havent used the replacement needles yet.

They did ask me the lot number of the box of needles that I was using at the time, and offered to send the nurse out to re-train me, since they assumed that I'm a moron and cant stab myself in the leg with a sharp pointy thing.

My dad taught me to inject (it's good to have a parent who's a nurse) and in my opinion a pretty good teacher (he's taught a good portion of the doctors and nurses and paramedics in Omaha how to inject people along with a few other nurse-ish type stuff, since he works at a teaching hospital)

I'm so tired right now, I dont want to do the nightly stab.

Got new glasses today, and I guess the current ON is messing with my eyes again since my eye feels weird looking thru the new lenses and I'm dizzy because of my eye feeling weird...and I'm warm, in a basement that's almost always a steady 65 degrees. I think I'll go get a couple of Tylenol just in case it's a fever.

I want to find out where I got the MS so I can give it back.
