I discovered that last night when I was putting the devivce together for precautions before bedtime. The needle stuck out a mile. I was like what the heck is this? I too heard and mentioned my concern in an earlier post that it needed to be IM but I assumed that since it came with different sizes it would accommodate the needle. Well, I am going to do some cutting and sawing when I am feeling better. I am going to make this darn device work if it kills me! It is too good of an idea to not use! Don't laugh, you know how I came up with my own invention of Cortef suspension, heck I am going to work on this.  What the device really needs is a linger trigger so the needle will inject farther. If I can't "invent" my own new series, I will call the company and request it. Hmm, perhaps this could benefit my CAH package I am still perfecting. I am on it. As soon as we are well.
