    Blood in Needle Question??

    When you aspirate and by chance you draw in some blood. I know you should pull out and stick somewhere else. My question is can you leave the blood in the pin when you shoot in to a new place ? or should you squirt out the bllod from the pin first?

    as long as there is more room in the needle to aspirate then why worry about it...

    It ain't gonna hurt ya. I've done it myself. I did clear the pin first but there was still some that bubbled in the syringe. Nothin' hurt.

    it's fine, but i always like to change pins, not syringes, and inject again.

    Totally agree. One time I drew blood and I was in a hurry so I didn't change the pin and just went for it again. It hurt so bad and I had a huge bruise for a week and a half. Those up close pictures of pins all dull after just one use are true. Always change your pin!

    If you pull blood out of you and then inject it back in you'll turn into a zombie.........but really it will be fine as long as you can tell if you hit a vein when you aspirate again.

    I had just did an injection and aspirated (atleast i thought i did it correctly, i pulled back, air bubbles came, so i finished injection), but afterwards, i noticed there some blood on the in between part of the needle and syringe. It never made it into the oil when i asperated. Does anyone think i will have a problem. Im a little light headed right now, but that could be meaning less. I would think if i injected incorrectly, i would know pretty quickly, right? I was injecting into glutes btw....

    Sometimes I notice a small droplet of blood in that same spot when Im pulling it out. It could just be a bit of backpressure(suction) from when you compress the plunger all the way down and when you release it, it draws back ever so slightly and nicking a vein is so very easy on the way in or even out if you're shaky.
