Bubbles in the syringe.

Just taken my first jab in the glutes sucssesfully, no problems at all.

The hardest work was getting the bubbles out of the top of the syringe, there were a cpl of large bubbles just sat there and the juice was just going around them and out of the top of the needle (actully wasted a bit of gear), has anyone any tips they can offer on this situation? no matter what they wouldnt budge.

Also has anyone got any tips for opening amps, i managed to break it off with a sock over my thumb in a snapping movement, i managed it ok but felt i was gonna shatter the whole amp, being honest im not looking forward to Thursdays injection cos of these problems, the actual injection was enjoyable, looking forward to that bit again.

Thx.

aspirate the needle back just a bit(enough for just the slightest amout of air in the syringe) then flip it with your finger with the needle facing the sky. The bubble will go to the top then push until oil just starts to come out of the needle.

As for the amps... score them with an amp scorer or a file(small metal) snap in a pulling and pushing away from eachother(top & bottom) movement. It will get easier a few practice snaps.

I usually just draw the gear into the syringe, dont remove the needle, and of course the will be some air bubbles, then inject the gear back into the vial, then draw it back into the syringe again, no more bubbles. Give it a try. Good luck!

Yes, dont get amps anymore. That way you can leave it in the vial and get all the air out. Or, do what Meso said.

Ill try that, many thx.

I've never tried myself but I heard take a bic pen cap and put it over the top before you snap it
