Aspirating - Need Help

**gymrat12345** · 06-12-2006, 05:44 PM

when i've been aspirating nothing seems to happen, no blood etc., but i can't really tell if the plunger is going back cause...even though i'm pulling back on that shit super hard i get no air in the syringe, which seems strange.

any thoughts, am i doing it right?! wtf...

Veins are under pressure...and blood flows pretty easily through a needle. If you were in a vein, you would know. It wouldn't be difficult to pull.

I usually pull back on the plunger and if I feel resistance and see no blood in the syringe, then I go ahead and inject. You have to pull fairly hard to see air bubbles.

I KNOW I SHOULD..but i rarely aspirate . i usually shoot in my glute and it makes it kinda hard. i also worry about moving the needle around too much in there and tearing muscle-is this possible? or am i just bein a girl? out of all the shots ive done(and ive done a cpl winny cycles w/ e.d. shots) ive shot in a vein once-but when u do youll know. i got white bumps on my arms, bloodshot eyes, i could taste the juice in my throat(wierd) and i could barely breath. good thing it was a 1cc shot of winny and not the big shot day-winny+eq+test.

I never drew blood either. I guess I've been lucky so far.

I have drawn blood a few times, but I have a question. When you say you pull back super hard, could you elaborate? For example if the syringe holds 3ml and you have 1.5ml of AAS, how far do you pull the plunger back? I usually pull it back about .5ml, which is about 1/6 the length of the entire plunger to see the bubbles expand. If I pulled super hard, the pluger would pop right out of the back of the syringe, so I would like to have a more detailed understanding of your meaning of pulling super hard. Thanks

Bump
I second that question, I only pullback the length of half a cc.
I'm thinking that should be enough to know whether or not you are in a vein which I believe is the main point of aspirating is it not?

**magic32** · 06-13-2006, 06:58 AM

As fLg said veins are pressurized. There's no need to truly pull back, just let up and give a slight tug. If you're in it'll come rushing.

**rspiston** · 06-13-2006, 08:34 AM

Tx for the response.

It HAS happened to me, except that i inject so slow, i was able to realize i was in a vein and pull out with some coughing and mild dizziness.

I have always felt it is important to inject slowly, this being one of the reasons

NOT FUN
