    air in your needle... what you guys think?

    I asked this a paramedic yesterday about air in your needle and he said the body can handle 4ml of air. that surprised me. so if there are bubbles in your needle then I guess you don't have to waste the roids to get it out! but don't quote me please!
    what you guys think?

    I do the same as gixxer. Well I did until I started this rather painful variety of prop I am running now. I don't really like that battery acid on my needle.

    I don't sweat a small bubble...no problem. I try and get the big ones out, but the small ones are not a concern.

    I think that it is more of a precaution that could pay off if you accidentally inject in a vein. Im not sure but im pretty sure that puting air in blood veins is bad.

    I always add a tiny bubble to every injection, just to get all the juice out
    I've never had any problems, and the amount of air i usually put in is exactly enough so it doesn't leave the needle tip

    I think it takes a large amount of air into a vein from articals, if you surf the web about it.

    as was stated in another post, doctors actually inject air into veins to test heart functions. Plus injecting air into a vein shouldnt be a concern since we are all aspirating, right? A little air in the muscle isnt going to hurt you.
