hey guys, this is so new that even nurses are being trained to use it.

I just did for the first time, and I LOVE IT! much easier to get to than the butt, no cramps, and it seems much easier.

Anyone tried the ventroglueteal injection? (side of the hip) i recommend it highly. I used a 1"x25g

They always hit my kid in the triceps, I asked why not the glutes like when I was a kid, she said "There's a major nerve back there" I know she was talking about the sciatic nerve, I was tempted to say just "go high and outside", but I left it go.
I tried the ventroglute, it was OK, but for me it's real "gristly" and doesn't slide in smoothly, I hate the feeling, but it is easy and usually painless.
