Hi - did a post a couple of days ago about the new mxt injections and how I was having problems with the needles. I spoke to the pharmasits (sorry cant spell) in my local chemist and he rang the manufacture. Apparently they have had other people ring up complaining about the needles being blunt!!!! So he suggested that they do something about them???? But we will see! I am now going to ring the hospital and see if they can do anything as this is not right!!! :roll:

    Hi, I thought there was something funny about the needles on the new MXT injections, I didn't realise that they were a bit blunt, as for the cover I don't have any problems, the info I got with my delivery says to twist and then pull off and it seems to work ok, suggest you try that love Jaspercatxx

    Not another way to make MTX injections more of a trial! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

    I am so sorry for those of you on this new system, and hope you get it sorted soon!

    Certainly dripping the stuff everywhere is not good :o and as for blunt needles .... yeuk!

    thankfully I am not on these type (yet?!) but who knows in the future!
