I saw an ad for these and thought they were interesting. Reminds me of what they use at the dr office.

I haven’t bought a Lancet in probably 20 years, but I do like small size.

They are single-use only though.

That goes against the rule in the diabetes _underground_ handbook that you should use each lancet at least a thousand times. 😂

And use each pen needle until you’ve said “Ouch! Would you just change that already!” at least 30 times.

But tell me is it still ok to use with a little rust on it? I am current on my Tetanus. Those are good for 25 years right 😁
