    went to inject into delt and muscle vibrated(twitched)...did i hit a vein?

    I pulled it out right away after that happened but does that mean i hit a vein while i was stickin myself?

    if it twitched it would be more likely of u hitting a nerve than a vein. veins wont make u twitch. i hit the quad one time and it twitched a bit. i just kept injecting tho

    Why is your delts your favorite place? My friend, and roomate, is a LPN and I think I'll let her "hit me on da hip", lol.

    I see this happen frequently, mostly in people who are apprehensive about the shot. Not a prob though.

    I couldn't agree more.

    For me its quads & delts all the way, I find the quads even less painful and they are easier to get to, you can do it sitting down and as long as you stick to the outside of the leg you've got acres of space to use.

    Yeah i agree but i just always think i am going to hit something on the way in if i try anywhere else. Just a mental thing i gotta get past.

    Twitching is a direct result of hitting a nerve. Contrary to previous advice, you should not just ignore it and shoot away. That risks compromising that nerve even more. That's no good. Pull out, change pins, and pick another spot. I hit a nerve in my bi once that made it twitch so hard the needle nearly shot back out.

    yeah, I didn't know if I got scared and pulled it out quick or if it shot out when I hit the nerve. I'm think it was the latter of the two.
