YOU NEED TO ASPIRATE BEFORE INJECTING.

I’ve known many individuals who were never told by medical professionals to aspirate, which is unacceptable on behalf of endocrinology. This is an extremely important step because if you accidentally inject into a vein, you can literally die.

“I’ve never aspirated and I’ve been fine” until you’re not.  “My doctor never told me to aspirate” because trans healthcare has yet to be standardized and is a work in progress. “The area I inject in has little to no blood vessels” but there are so many people who don’t know which areas are safest and it’s better to be safe than sorry.

How To Aspirate: Stick yourself with the needle and then draw back on the syringe. If your syringe fills with blood, you need to reposition your needle. If it doesn’t fill with blood, you’re safe to inject there.

Signs that you’ve injected into a vein: — Stroke — Shortness of breath — Coughing — Chest and/or abdominal pain — Low Oxygen — Blood clots — Slurred speech — Headache — Swelling — Tenderness

Literally just aspirate because it takes 2 seconds and can save your life.

PROUDLY presenting the newest addition to the Armory: A MUCH requested design that I was finally able to tackle: Polyarmory! (Polyamory. Weapons. Get it? I’m hilarious)

I used multiple weapons that appear elsewhere in the Armory to represent as many people as possible, as long as a shield for unity! I incorporated the infinity sign that’s sometimes on the flag into the ribbon. This flag was challenging color-wise but I’m very happy with what I was able to do with it!
