Gear left in syringe...?

Typo

I feel I'm losing a fair bit left in the tip of the syringe after injecting, not the needle but the point of the plastic the needle attaches to. Is this normal?

Is there syringes that don't do this?

Today I tried leaving an air bubble in the syringe to try and get the last bit but because I shoot quads it was too hard trying to make the bubble stay at the top (I come in on the side)

1ml is such little liquid, I could end up doing 400mg a week instead of 500mg...???

I used to worry myself to death about this too. No worries. If you overthink, which you're doing, lol then yes it could mount up to "losing" a lot.. but I promise it's not a big deal.

If you have enough of your stash, go a little above your usual hash mark on the needle. That way it evens out. That's what I do when I have a good supply. :)

PS- don't leave an air bubble!!! That crap becomes dangerous especially if you hit a vein dude.
 
You will be alright man, like stated already draw a little extra Into the syringe.

A small air bubble won't kill you, it will desipate into your muscle, but like I said a SMALL, tiny bubble!

And if you hit a vein you will know for sure, when you aspirate you will get blood in the syringe, that's why it's good to aspirate to avoid injecting into a vein.
 
you got to step up the game and get the right needles...this is what i use...

you lose nothing...be sure to press gently because if your jamming the syringe plunger down you will retract the needle pre mature and waste more then the .1 in each shot

It's just a drop, though the retractable needles are interesting.

DO NOT leave an air bubble in the syringe. I repeat, whatever anyone says, DO NOT leave an air bubble in the syringe.
 
you know what I did the other day? pulled the top off my vial and got an extra .25 mls outta the last few drops of the bottle of primo :evil:

ps: if you push hard enough it squeezes the last drops out
 
I try to leave JUST enough of a bubble in the syringe to push the liquid nearly all out of the syringe, but not enough to push the liquid all the way out and put air in the muscle. All due respect to Nelson M, it's all in how carefully you do it. There IS a cardinal rule "NO air in syringe", but it's kind of like the "never look down the barrel of a gun" rule... There are exceptions, such as when you're cleaning the gun, and you get your swab stuck in the barrel. Common sense says it's OK to break the rule and look into the barrel so that you don't spend 45 minutes fiddle-farting around and scratching up the rifling with an awl, trying to get the stuck swab out without looking at it. Sorry for the elaborate analogy, but I want to make a point about "cardinal rules".

I always inject with the needle facing slightly or straight down, so that the bubble is the last thing to vacate the syringe. As soon as I see the bubble hit the needle hub, I stop pressure. That way, there's only about a microlitre or liquid wasted. I shoot delts, ventro glutes, and occasionally quads (although quads for me are the most likely to hurt later).

You can practice with your exact needle and syringe type, by saving a used one (or a new one if you have plenty) and try drawing plain water or cooking oil and leaving different size bubbles, and get it to where you know how big a bubble it takes in your syringe to accomplish not wasting any liquid.

A small air bubble is actually perfectly acceptable. It's called an airlock and a lot of preloaded syringes from major companies put them in there. I put an airlock in all my injections, it prevents any oil left in the hub and from leaking out of injection site. I should mention I'm an RN and wifey is a doctor. Trust me it takes A LOT of air injected directly into your vein for any cardiac issues to arise.

I agree... 110% lol
 
i get them from cvs or rite aid but im in michigan and we dont need scripts..im sure they can be ordered online..id prob google it and check
 
There isn't even .1ml left in the syringe. I ran out of gear once and my order was going to be about 1 week longer so I thought I would get some extra out of the used syringes. OK, not only was this a BAD idea for sterility, but I only a drop (literally) out of each syringe. I emptied about a half dozen before I realized I was wasting my time.

Finally, if you inject air it hurts like hell for about a day until the air bubble dissipates into the muscle. Trying to save the drop of gear left in the syringe is NOT worth injecting even a tiny bit of air.

lol you're crazy

But ONLY if it's Winny right? ;)

YAY for oldschool thread bumpage!
 
That's what I do. I pull air into the syringe and shoot the last drops into my mouth. Sometimes I pull water into the syringe and shoot that into my mouth. I want all that shit!

Yes! Last time this topic came up i remember sombody squirted the left overs on there abbs and rubbed it in! Omg i was on the floor rolling when i read that! What makes it so funny is they prolly really do that and im
Not mad at them hahahhahaha!!!!!!!
 
what a buncha sick f*cks I thought I was the only one who licked up the last few liquid gold drops :p
 
Not to hijack the thread but BD syringes are lookin like the Cadillac of the injection paraphenalia world!! Ive been lookin for something better than the Terumo slin pins I have a ton of - and have realized have no quality control whatsoever in the production... I never know whether the fuckin thing is gonna be sharp or dull from one pin to the next - and from going to diabetic support boards and websites keep seeing their name come up as far as quality and consistancy of production. Ive got no problem with Terumo teflon coated needles, but these lil steel ones are no good. Im gettin BD slin pins for sure... an now might have to look into their full line!!! Anybody ever use their slin pins, or know what a 100 pack of the retractable needles cost? Im intrigued...
 
Yea... BD is DEFINITELY the way to go.. FOR sure... I LOVE there products...
 
i have tried using extra solution and still can't get the tiny air bubble out of the tip near the needle... i am drawing it with an 18g ..no air.. then i switch to a 25g and push the oil to the top of the needle and no matter how much i tap tap tap on the dang thing there always remains a tiny air bubble.. it's like it just sets to the side of the needle and refuses to go up and out. .. i just wasted 2 of my little shots..

what am i doing wrong?
