aspirated and got blood - now what?

[leonidas33]

good point... should probably still take the 2-3 seconds and squirt it out.

I know I'm going to flamed or vulcanized for this reply,(LOL) but I don't aspirate.
Never will!!! I used to do it, but I stopped about a year ago. I suggest any novice and professional to aspirate. Me, its like "Truth or Dare!" LOL

I'm a newb piece-0-shit lol. But I'd aspirate a little too much/too hard, and it would make it hard to walk for days lol. This chick I talk to every now & again basically told me not to aspirate, and the injections since have been cake. No bruising, pain, anything. (All quad shots).

You don't need to squirt out the blood. Just pick a new spot, aspirate again and inject. It's your own blood. Nothing to worry about re-injecting it.

Agreed, although I don't pull the needle fully out, just pull back slightly and re-direct, re-aspirate and plunge if a-ok.

i aspirated and got nothing but blood in the neck of the syringe and a little in the syringe itself with the gear...

what now? just change the needle and reinject? or dispose everything since there is a little blood mixed in now?

Fellows, I don't aspirate and never will. One bruising in three years. Piece of cake! NO BS!

Aw hell...guess I just wasted 2cc of cyp...lol. I was always told to turf the shit if you draw blood.

I hope no one ever listens to this advice. This can easily be one of the most dangerous advices I've ever seen posted. You should always aspirate, you are taught this in medical school. If air gets into the blood stream there's a chance that you could get an embolism that would pretty much kill you. If you are trying to improve your body why take such a huge risk at something that would take 2 seconds to do?

I concur.

If you prepared the syringe right than you should not inject air into the stream if you do not aspirate. Im in the medical field and i do aspirate on my patients, but when i give my self injections i do not aspirate. Once again if you prepared the syringe right, dont aspirate, and inject in the blood stream you should be fine, other than waste your gear.

I also don't aspirate cause I heard if you use a 1 1/2" pin all the way in, you can't hit a vein because there are no vessels that deep.
