Got blood today

Well today i need to do my other half of my E4d shot and as I was aspirating I drew in blood.

It was pretty scary and I pulled out imediatly.

I was pretty shook up about the whole thing for a while, even had a slight anxiouty attack and had to sit down with my shirt off and the fan blowing on me because I was sweating so heavily.

I then called and begged my GF to come over and do it for me (yeah I pussed out) and she did even though it is late.

I just didnt want to leave the blood sitting in the pin overnight.
I was able to avoid putting the blood back in me by letting the pin sit with the needle pointing up and this caused the blood to set at the bottom and after about 30 mins or so it was pretty much permantly stuck there for some reason.

My Gf did the injection and all went well and I could see that she stopped before the blood which was cool also.

Now I got a slight needle phobia, hope it goes away by next inject since Ive never been afraid of them before.

it was bound to happen sometime or another...when that happens to me..i take it out..push the blood out and restick!!..it will happen more times.

what a wuss...lol...get over it dude....it's bound to happen again...dont freak out, just pull out and re-poke eslewhere...you may have a bruise from hittin the vein, but that's about it...good luck!

wow man u really panicked. Like said, squird the blood out and stick it in again. I had it once in my thigh, but no worries. U may bruise, but no worries u pulled it out. Dont get all psyched up about taking shots, it will just get u paraniod. But u didnt know so no u do.

I once pierced a vein in my thigh, though i dont think i injected in to it (when i didnt know what i was doing) I definitely felt strange afterwards ( it was test250 ) i felt like a damn animal lol it was intense

bro it's no big deal... it doesn't even rank up there with cutting yourself while shaving.... just pull out... switch pins.. and re-stick... i m more freaked when i hit a nerve in my legs... muscle starts twitchin while pin is still in there...

I guess I was just over reacting but it really freaked me out.

I see how things go on monday when its time to do it again, thank god I have a gf for stuff like this.

wow you haven't been pinning long have ya lol

Yes, hate it when I hit a nerve and the muscle twitches.

Blood is heavier than oil. To purge blood from the rig, hold it point-down and squirt it out. Then tip it up and change pins, try again. If any biological contaminants are in the syringe, even traces you can't see, as in when you aspirate blood and then purge it out, you want to shoot right away and not hold it for hours or a day.

If you are really noid, you can just toss the rig and the gear in it, you know. It isn't liquid gold or anything like that.

Hijack, but on-topic. Tonight I hit a major vein, outside quad, could tell right away after I broke the skin. I pulled out immediately and some major blood came out. Within 1 minute, the area was totally swollen. So, do I have a big ball of blood in my leg or what? I have injected myself daily for 120 days, never had this before.
Thanks,

Bro,

I did that in my Delt not long ago! It was swollen for about 8 hours or so. Not to worry....you will be fine! See I'm still alive to type this to you!
I'm feelin kinda good though, I just finished my last shot of Prop! I will be hitting PCT in a few days, but I'm not gonna miss the shots for a while. :7up:

because blod clots up and can cause some serious infections when its in the muscle.

When you aspirate (dude have you ever even done gear?) you DONT want to see blood. The reason why is because where your injecting there isnt any blood and there shouldnt be any, so putting blood where there shouldnt be any is gonna cause problems and infections.

I heard horror stories of hospital trips and getting cut open and blood clots removed that where infected.

Ever seen Requiem for a Dream? When you see the dude get his arm amputated the reason why is the answer to your question why it is bad.
