I got poked today by a dirty BG lancet. I am a community health nurse so I carry my own sharps container. I was about to dispose of a used syringe and I dropped the containerm, as I was dropping it I moved my hands out of the way (cause I wasnt about to try and catch it) and I felt a poke. I look down on the floor and there was a BG lancet. So of course I have no idea whose it was. The good thing is that I cant remember the last time a patient used my sharps bin for a BG lancet, so it is old-not fresh blood. So now a year of testing ahead of me Employee health said it was not high risk enough for PEP, which I think I would have declined anyway. But I am breastfeeding and I cried my eyes out because I was sure that I would be told to stop. But I talked to my sons pedi and he said to go ahead and continue. I just had to share with some people who understand. My husband doesnt get how scary it is!
