About aspiration and injections, some questions...

[ocisbomb]

I have never injected anything, and I am doing all the reading I can about it, before I start my first cycle. I am going to use my glute to inject, and when I read about aspirating, things get a little hazy: When I pull the plunger, what do I want to see, air bubbles?? Definately not blood, I know that, but where is this air coming from? Isn't it REALLY bad to inject yourself with air?

Can we use this thread to talk IN DETAIL about injecting and aspirating? Could I get some very specific hints and tips?

Thanks a lot.

you just barely pull back if you're in vain you'll know quickly

When you pull back it's either air bubbles or blood.

Air expands in a vacumn. When you pull back on the plunger, you may see air bubbles appear. This is because you are creating a vacumn where the air will expand. No worries though ... small bubbles won't hurt you.

Yeah dude those little air bubles are normal. You need like half syringe of air in your bloodstream to kill you. Even if you see a little amount of blood is OK. Now if you see a large amount of red blood coming into the syringe pull out immediately.

Okay, so the air bubbles will appear due to the air expanding in the vacuum I create, when I release the tension, they will disappear? Or I just inject them?

Also, I've been feeling around my ass cheeks for the best spot to inject, and I know it's the upper outer quarter of the glute, I'm using a 1.5" needle, how do I know I won't hit a bone or something.. 1.5" seems pretty long..


I'm just nervous I guess, never injected anything.

Also, how much pain are we talking? Any first time hints? Ice the area? Anything?

Thanks!

Bro, 1.5" is not enough to hit bone but is long enough to get deep into the muscle belly. If you want nearly painless injections make sure to change out the needle after you draw your sauce. I usually use an 18guage to draw from the bottle then twist it off and put on a 23guage to shoot it. You wouldn't believe how dull the needle will get just from poking it through the rubber of your vial. A sharp 23 isn't going to hurt at all and requires no pressure to poke through the skin.

Make sure the liquid is not cold. Slap your ass where you plan on injecting. Poke needle in seconds after the slap...you shouldn't feel a thing. First poke is always difficult. You will get used to them quickly....then you'll miss them when they are gone!

air bubbles are fine. You would need about 3cc 's of air to do damage. If you see any blood pull out and start over. keep reading bro. Then go for it. Good luck.

If you do "slap your ass", make sure you swab with alcohol before you inject. Because your bacteria infested hand will transfer loads of goodies onto your ass when you slap it.
