Oil & Blood loss~```

[CO B-man]

I have had this happen every once in a while. Today I lost more oil (And blood) out my arm than the "Exon Valdiz" lost in the alaskan waters years back. Just curious what you all do with the gusher scenario? I know it happens to us all more than once! Do you reload and reinject more or do you let it go and re-adjust dealing with your cycle assuming it all made it to its proper place? Just curious!

My thought would be how do you know how much oil was lost and therefore
how much to put back in? Not knowing and injecting more in could only put your stable levels in jeapordy. I would call it a "loss".

I would only get that when i inject too often in the same spot.

anyway put a cottonball or tissue paper over the injection site and hold it for a while till the blood stops. don't worry about the lost oil.

yes^
if this happens morethan once then have a sterile swab of some type ready at pin withdrawl to cover and compress that should stop the flow and prevent future gear loss

as someone else say how do you know you loss oil?
be more selective where you inject, I normally stay away from veins that are visable, and when injecting go slow with needle, if I feel more of pain then I know I have hit vein sometime I will still inject, other times pull out and find other spot to inject, I know I will bleed so will have cloth handy

I don't think you lose as much oil as you think

No dout whatsoever that it is a loss of oil since blood and oil separate you can just tell oil and blood arfe the same amount about but as too how much oil is anyones guess. No real way to measure just yesterday looked like a ton. A steady stream cam out along with blood. I usually call it a loss! Not alwayhs is it as bad as yesterday though

Could be injecting gear to fast as well. I have troulble shoot this, injecting faster---->lose more gear, slower-----> keeps more oil in, allows time to disperse

Delts i find lose gear easier-- to help, keep arm parallel with body after taking needle out and cover with alcohol swab. I find if you move your arm away from the body (abduction), oil comes out more
Glutes and quads, i have never lost oil so try to hit these areas more (larger muscles).

Just from my experiences

I've never had this happen. I warm up my gear in an electric blanket or warm water before injecting and also push it in slow - 30 to 45 seconds for each cc. You may need longer needles too, perhaps it is not going deep enough.

never had anything like that happen to me!!! nd I bet I have done over 100 injections But maybe cause I alwys do them in the glutes!!

it happened to me minus the blood and a glute shot
felt a drip and looked and oil was oozin out
put my finger on it for a minute and it stopped
from then on had a alcahol swab ready to apply pressure just in case

if oil starts to come back out pull the skin on the surface and hold it for a minute ...it will stop.

it happens but, you may not be going deep enough or your muscle may not be completely relaxed and soft ...try massaging your muscle before you inject and try not to get anxious with anticipation as this can cause you to tense involuntarily

i just hold the loaded syringe under a small stream of hot water until the oil viscosity is at a point where it's easier to inject. Never had an issue with losing oil other than small insignificant amounts if you inject real fast. It's probably better to inject slower though.

I do that everytime myself. Thanks though
