buttonhole needles

[cookie2008]

I use the medisystems bh-2005 and have no problems, now we also use bh-2005pe and they hurt like you wouldnt believe, I no longer can use the emla cream due to having an infection that put me in the hospital dont want that again.  Medisystems say they are made the same way but I dont believe it because I use them and can tell the difference.  What brands of needles do you use and do you have any issues.  Cookie

I use the bh-2005pe by medisystems.  They are okay.  If I have a hard time with them, I use a sharp for a few days.  I have trouble with my venus because it's quite deep so sometimes the buttonhole (blunts) just stop working and I have to start a new buttonhole.
