I have needles that have been donated and I am looking for people who can use them for desferal. They are the thumbtack style needles ( Baxter or similar) and they are all the same length, 12 mm (1.2 cm). These are a bit longer than many patients like but for those who can use them, they are free. Thanks to some kind people who have donated funds to our group, I now have some money to pay for postage. I will send them anywhere in the world, so if you think they will make it through Customs, please contact me and I will send some to you. Please, for patient actual use only. If you plan on selling them, do not ask. If I do not know you already, I may ask for some proof that a patient will be using them at no cost. Contact me with your info and I will send some out ASAP. The return address will be Thalassemia Patients and Friends, so that may give them a better chance to clear customs. I did this some years ago and everyone received the needles, so let's give it a try. I have quite a few, so everyone interested, please do ask.

I want to make sure that people understand that these are long needles and I think are probably suitable only for adults who have sufficient body fat in the stomach and thighs to use these. These go in almost half an inch deep.

Hi Asim,
Yes, they are 27 g. 12 mm long. If you can use this size, send me your full name and address information in a personal message. These are the expensive needles of the same style as thalaset. I would be very happy to send some to you. I know that these do make desferal a little easier to take, as this type of needle does not hurt as much.

Hi Asim, Long time no post.... I just want to ask you something. Is your doctor allowing you to use Desferal with Asunra? How's Asunra doing? Any side effects or anything? Keep us posted about that too. You are one of the pioneers of Asunra. Keep us updated

Asim,
That's great to hear they arrived so quickly. I will send you some more now that I know there is no problem mailing them.
Anyone else who can use 12 mm thumbtack style needles made by Baxter, please message me with your complete name and address information.
