bent needle

Ok, I’ve been doing this since November. My belly provides a good
target and I don’t generally have problems —- but, every once in a
while the shot HURTS for no apparent reason and when it does, I
sometimes get a bruise. Tonight when I started to inject and felt
pain, I discovered that the needle was bent, not much, but obviously
enough to hurt. Since the needles are only $6/hundred, I never reuse
needles. I guess it’s possible that I somehow bent it when I removed
the cap after attaching the needle. Don’t know, but I’ve found my
reason for occasional pain and bruising. I KNEW it was my fault, just
didn’t know exactly how.

Still not smoking, weight creeping back up.
