[QUOTE="cowgirl8, post: 1268571, member: 22072"] I had a hand load of shots to give to a cow, while handing them to husband to give, the cow jumped and i was stuck with a syringe of micotil...My first thought, "Was that the bad stuff?" And indeed it was. I was pretty sure i was just jabbed in the finger and nothing injected so i brushed it off. On my way home on my 4wheeler, i looked at where i got jabbed and my finger was turning blue. I FREAKED OUT!!! Husband called poison control and they told him to get me to ER real quick. Well, getting there and quick is never going to happen out here, lol....After the panic wore off, i was showing none of the signs they told us to look for, and at an hour past i was fine so we didnt go to ER.. Poison control did call me every day for a week to see if i could tell anything was weird. I told my Vet this and he said a guy working cows had the vial in his pocket that broke and soaked into his pants. He wore these pants the rest of the day and by then the damage was done. I believe it ruined his heart. So, you dont have to get it injected...it will soak into your skin too.. [/QUOTE]
