    Injection question

    I have a two part question:

    The first is why is it so hard to fill my syringe with 1 ml of Test e?
    I have a 10ml syringe and I am using a 25gx1" needle to draw from. My test e is in a glass vial with a rubber top. I heat up the test e in hot water before I draw. When I draw the test e I fill the syring with about 2 ml of air and then insert into the glass vial. I push in the air and then draw my test e. I pull back on the syring to about 6ml and the vacuum is so strong I can barely hold it there. It takes about one minute for me to get 1ml of test e. Am I doing this wrong? or is this normal?

    Second question is why is it so hard to inject. I am using the same 25gx1" needle to inject into my thigh. When I inject I have a hard time with pushing hard enough on the plunger. It takes about 45s of pushing as hard as I can to get 1 ml into my thigh. I have to push so hard that my thumb hurts worse than the injection site. Should it be this hard? Or is it because I am using a 25g needle?

    Use a bigger needle to withdrawl from the vial try a 22g or 18g needle

    And just have more patince when injecting a 25g 1 inch is perfect for quad injections it just takes alittle extra time to inject

    1st question: it takes long to withdraw the test bc its a small gauge needle, do like horse2006 said and use a bigger needle to withdraw
    2nd question: same answer, your using a small needle so its hard to get alot of juice through fast, use a bigger guage needle to get the job done faster. i use a 22g and it slides right in.
