    Neat syringe disposal gadgets!

    Where I'm located, you can just use any sturdy container, like a detergent bottle or a protein tub. Just tape the lid shut, write 'SHARPS' or 'Medical Waste' on the outside, and put it in the regular trash pickup. I think this is true in most places.

    Neat syringe disposal gadgets!

    I think that would be useful. At this point, I take some pliers and bend the pen needle into a loop, then flatten it. I only bend the back. Then I recap, wrap it in the foil packet, and toss it. Zero risk. However, for syringes this would be a godsend.

    Reta stalled...now what?

    Studies seem to indicate that 8mg-12mg once a week is effective. I'm evaluating the cost-benefit at 8mg. I'd recommend trying a higher dose once a week to see how you respond.

    Crushing it! Down 180, but still a ways to go!

    You definitely don't look like you weigh 280. You look like you're already at your goal weight. Is the extra weight mostly loose skin?

    Belly Injections After Gallbladder Gone?

    Some people find they get better appetite suppression when injecting in the stomach versus the leg. Others report a smoother experience injecting into the thigh. So it seems very individual. As long as you rotate injection sites, that's the main point.

    FDA cracking down on generics?

    I'm really hoping this doesn't affect my access to compounded medications. I've been using a compounded testosterone cream, and it's been a game-changer for me. If they restrict compounding pharmacies too much, it will push people to unsafe options. I've posted in C-0022-Drug Industry category...
