This time when I aspirated, the air stayed in the syringe after I released. This time I also must have passed through a large vein becuase I bled pretty good after. Think that had anything to do with it?

I doubt it. Sometimes you will knick a vein on the way in not a big deal it happens.
No I know that, but any reason why the air stayed in the syringe after aspiration?Quote:

Don't you always have some air in there I do.
stop the aspiration crap and just stick it in. never did it. if blood comes out, it comes out. it'll stop bleeding quickly.
Usually the air releases back into my muscle upon releasing.Quote:

Lol, people who don't aspirate are taking uneccesary chances. It's so simple. And you won't be saying this after you do happen to inject in a vein.Quote:

Aspirate. I didn't think anything was back there either till i withdrew and blood flew 4ft and hit my bathroom wall. But that 10 years ago and i was dumb. Now i won't think about injecting without aspirating.
Oh, keep hitting your ass only and not rotating and you'll eventually build up enough scar tissue that if you hit it, you won't be able to inject. You'll have to withdraw and find another spot. Yea, i have that problem sometimes.
passing through a vein is inevitable but it doesn't mean that you are injecting into a vein. Using short needles don't help however!Quote:
