so i registered in a vein (and made sure i was still registered halfway thru the shot) and had to shoot with the needle a little bit out of my vein to avoid poking thru it, and i managed to balance the needle well enough to finish the whole shot without slipping up and poking thru. however, as soon as i finished the shot this little bump that almost looks like a pimple immediately formed right where the injection site is. it is black/blue with a little white center that raises from the surface of my skin. i'm just wondering if this is at all common because i've never had an injection site look like this after a shot before. however, i did buy a brand new pack of rigs in which i've never used the brand before (EasyTouch), and i also had missed in the same arm 3-5 days ago about 2 inches above where i just shot now - my arm appeared to be healed from the missed shot before i did this shot though. my arm does not hurt though, so i don't believe i missed at all. it does kind of look like i missed though...8)
could this be the brand of needles i just bought?
