I said this in a previous post. Cough when you stab yourself with the needle. You won't even feel it.

Unfortunately I’m not too lean right now, lol
I wonder if the 5/8”27 g insulin needle might work.

I use this needle for my delts with no issues. I then switch over to 1" in glutes and lats.

I inject daily, so I rotate sites daily to prevent any scar tissuing. I have done the 5/8" in lats with no issues as well.

Where do you guys source needles? Amazon? If so, any recommendations?

That's the size I use to draw and inject in my quad. No pain 95% of the time. Pretty easy.

That's what I used, works fine.

Did my first injection yesterday. Used a 1” 25 g in the thigh. Coughed when I pinned. Didn’t even feel it

Are you guys using the 27 gauge for subcutaneous? I tried the 27g today for subcutaneous and couldn't plunge the syringe. I was able to get a small droplet out of the needle before and after trying so that wasn't the issue.

I haven’t had an issue with the 1/2 x 27 subq

If you're having trouble drawing or injecting with a smaller needle, you can warm your vial first. Test and the carrier oils can get very thick when cold.

I used hot water and let the vial sit for a little and then sterilizing after. I have also read of guys using baby bottle warmers as well.

I’m doing IM with 27 ga.
