Saving Your Access

The best advice for saving your access: No one "enjoys" doing it but it hurts less since it is harder to concentrate on pain and sticking at the same time. You also get to know your access very well and self-insertion gives the ultimate control. That may be a problem in units where they don't want you to be in control. Try it, you may not like it, but it sure beats getting stuck or mistuck but some of those doing the sticking.
