Reused Needle
Hi Everyone,
I was on the hospital to check my blood sugar level and S Creatinine for my monthly check up.. The nurse open the new needle in front of me and i refuse to used that needle. The nurse put the needle on the table and she ask me to get to get the new syringe and open it.. When i open the needle and i assamble it the nurse put the needle again in the same table.. Even single second i did not miss to look away to that needle.. We are only two in the room and one patient is waiting outside. I check the table when i reach there. There is no anything in the table that time..
Do you think in in risk if the nurse pick up the another needle or maybe that other needle is used to someone else?
Please help me to ease my anxiety. Please give me some explanation regarding this matter

Teak thank you for your comment..
I think that nurse will not intentionally used the old needle to me or to put me in trouble.. She will not put her license away for some personal interest..
