Auto injects cons?

The recent post of “auto injects” submitted by DRJ made many good points (Pros) for using an Auto Injector. I am still having major issues with injecting on my left side. Yesterday, I actually started to bend the needle attempting to inject on that side. It just wouldn’t go in. I switched back over to the right, got the meds in and had a successful outcome.

I am seriously considering trying an auto injector, but have some fears about it. Since I feel pain sometimes while the needle is being inserted, I pull back and adjust the angle or spot and try again. I would believe with an auto injector, it’s a quick hit, pain or no pain.

Anyone ever use an auto injector and then go back to manual insertion for whatever reasons/bad experiences? If so, what were the reasons?

Thanks,
RJ

When I started on Trimix the doc issued me an autoinjector. The injector worked fine but really slammed the needle and mix into you in microseconds. I see there are newer models available that stick the needle in then you press the mix in at your pace. I never used just the needle to inject.

I started without one ...then started using one ..it pops the needle in but you control the mix .. there were 2 rings with mine that adjusted the depth of the needle .. ofr us between my bad hand and her shaky hands was a lifesaver for us.

I used the fast release Autoinject and I end up with a dent on the area of the injection, a dent that cause narrowing on that side of the penis

I'm definitely going to give the Inject-Ease a try. I purchased the Owen Mumford Autoject Ei Injection Aid Device Aj1310, but have yet to use it. It just appears to really "slam" the medicine in...I should probably just brace myself and try it. :-D

Thank you!

Ambbimednc inject-Ease comes with 2 rings that allow how deep the needle goes they sell them on amazon if I remember correctly.

Search this on Amazon:

Inject-Ease Automatic Injector for Subcutaneous Injections or Depths of 1/2" or Less

I’m happy with it.
