"You're going to feel a little pinch"

We had our needles and injections lab last week, which was super fun!  Even for some of us who have already gotten plenty of experience giving injections in clinic, it was a great refresher on techniques, injection sites, and clinical pearls.

Knowing full well that we'd committed to being guinea pigs for our classmates when we started PA school, we chose partners, rolled up our sleeves, and exposed some nice arm flesh with plenty of sub-Q fat to practice injections on.  Here are some of the highlights from that day:

   Otherwise, life has been pretty boring thus far.  Endless round of exams begins on Wednesday.
