...with 5/16", 31g needles and 1/2-unit marks?? Mine from Hocks didn't come and the company appears to be in some sort of upheaval. Order unfilled after a week, no answer to phone, voice mail full. I thought someone have posted a link to a different online source that also sold them, but I can't find it now, or I would order some. If someone posted and removed the link, could you re-post it? Or does someone else know where to buy these syringes online?

Blessings!

Re: Link to another source (besides Hocks) of GNP syringes..

Some have posted previously that Hocks' customer service has gone to 'heck'
since they were bought out.


I would always order a couple more boxes of syringes whenever I opened my
last stocked box.

But I'm wary of ever using Hocks again.


GNP stands for Good Neighbor Pharmacy.
Do a google search for that, and see if there are any
Good Neighbor Pharmacies in your area....they may carry the syringes.

The store locator is here:

Re: Link to another source (besides Hocks) of GNP syringes..

I did use "Good Neighbor Pharmacy" in the Google search as well as GNP - just abbreviated it here. Only Hecks - oops, Hocks - showed up.

Believe it or not, although Hecks doesn't answer their phone, they answer their email - I got one from them a few minutes ago, saying they will send them by 2-day air. They also refunded my $3 postage (BIG deal - it cost that much for the alcohol to sterlize the hoary needle I have to use until they get here). So I am back (illicitly - the limit is supposed to be 30 min/day) on the library's computer, to tell the members who PM'd me that they don't need to send syringes - unless someone has some they don't need; I would be glad to have them!

Evidently they just forgot about the order. Gone to "heck," all right!

By the way, I don't buy more when I start a box because I am always hoping Himself will go OTJ as he's done twice before. He was going for two or as many as 4 days on a little quarter unit for a while, just going up and down in the low 100s before he came up high enough to shoot (160, the doctors said), so there was reason to hope. Now he just went 22 hours on a skinny half unit of insulin that's probably not full strength any more, so more hope...

Thanks for the links to other sources!

Blessings,

Shirley and Lover
