gee, used syringes in the trash?? I have HepC and was on the Peg-Intron treatment, had to give myself injections. My doctor gave me a sharps container for the used syringes.and I brought the container back to his office.
would think that a sharps contaier wouldn't be that difficult to get, or expensive. I shudder to think of used needles being accessible by being placced in ther trash in a plastic contianer with the top only being secured by duct tape. what about safety issues and, the junkie problem???
I am from Mississippi, and have a few friends whom are Home health nurses, and they all have sharps boxes..
