    Extremely Difficult to Inject/Draw

    Hi, I'm having some problems getting test e through a 23 g needle. It's my first cycle. Using Terumo leuer lock syringe and needles. They screw together.

    I originally ordered just 25g needles but couldn't draw anything in or shoot anything out. I then ordered 18, 22 and 23 gauge needles to make sure I got something that worked.

    I drew with a 18g and shot with a 23g before I injected to make sure it worked. It did, but it took so much pressure to get it all out. Is this normal? I ended up injecting into my thigh (no pain at all. i could hardly feel it) and tried to aspirate it with not much avail. I didn't see anything red, so I injected.

    Why is it so hard to aspirate and inject?

    Do you inject the air in to the oil or in to the vial (on top of the oil)?

    It makes no difference.



    Anyway, as said if it's trouble drawing then pressurize the vial with air and draw with 18g, and if it's trouble injecting just make the gear warm by keeping it in your palm/armpit or run it under hot water for 1-2 mins and it should inject very easily through a 23g.

    did you ever try to run your vial under warm water before you draw that helps alot and just stick the needle in the vial turn it upside and push the air into the vial

    Peace

    I have amps not a vial, and yes, I heat them up and also ran the syringe under hot water before my injection.

    23g-25g is a tiny needle!!! of course its going to be slow going in. Order 1in 18g... looks big, but easy to draw and feels the same goin in!

    My patients have no complaints.... hell I draw peoples blood with 18g!

    Huh? Your patients aren't getting several IM shots a week with an 18g. There's no need to inject with anything bigger than a 23g. Just warm the oil well and inject slowly.

    Some oils are thicker than others.

    I can draw Testoviron just fine with a 21, but if I'm drawing Sustanon I need an 18.

    I always go into muscle with a 23, just keep steady pressure on the plunger, the injection should take 30 seconds to a minute.

    Injection went fine. Just hit a nerve going in. I was able to aspirate and get an air bubble too.

    Thanks for all the advice.
