Im really sorry guys if im out of line putting this question here or whatever might be wrong with it. But i cant find any topic that can answer my question.
I shot up for the first time today.
Heres what happened:
-I tied off my arm
-I then lost control of needle and it came out (while arm was tied up)
-I reinjected a bit more upward, same vein
-I put the plunger in about 20units
At this time i wasnt sure if i did it right so i did some more. wasnt quite feeling what i thought id be feeling.
-i found another vein close to the middle vein in my arm. The big one. this new one was smaller and off to the side of it.
-i think i missed it but i didnt inject at all.
-so i reentered at another point on the big vein again. This time lower.
-i shot the rest into me. about another 20 units.
Now my arm is sore and tender at the site of injection. There are red dots where i put the needle in.
But nothing else is wrong. its just tender and sore. Is that normal though? To be sore?
Its amazing how simple the question is and it has not been answered. I mean people wont shut up about abscesses but nothing about slight tenderness.
Its my first time and I think i did okay but i just wanna make sure that nothing else might be wrong.
I will keep up with my arm's status just incase something changes in a few days. But i expect my arm to be okay by tomorrow. It just feels like someone stuck a needle in my arm lol.
but is that normal? should i not feel anything if i did it right?
