Accidentally reused an already used slin pin for test. Test ruined?

[drejb]

Hey guys. Might be overthinking but just wanna make sure

Pinned my HCG this morning sub Q with a slin pin. Had a second one to draw my test but picked up the same pin by mistake that I used for my HCG and put it in my test. Wiped the test first with alcohol before doing so. Is my test ruined? It’s my prescribed test so can’t get another one

Thanks

No it's fine but try not to do it again. There's alcohol in the oil so as long as no blood was transferred I would not worry about it. I've reused the same pin before while waiting on packs but I really try not to.

I'm not saying it's a good practice i'm just saying i've done it in a pinch.
