    so i hit a vein today...quick question...

    first off this is my first cycle, im midway through week 3,
    600mg test e/wk (jabs tues am & fri pm)

    so this morning i go to jab left quad, goes in, aspirate and blood starts flowing into the syringe, so i pull er out wipe and sterilize and all that, then i was sitting there with this syringe with 1cc of test sittin in it with blood and i wasnt sure if i should use it or not, so i grabbed another pin and starte over again and disposed of the other.

    This may seem like a stupid q but i am trying to be as safe as possible with this stuff as i am new to this. so could i have used it w/blood in it? or was throwing it away the right move?

    thanks

    I'd get the blood out of it and use a new needle.

    But then again I have been lucky and yet to strike a vein or artery.

    It's your own blood. I would have just pushed the blood back out, withdrawn the needle and reinjected elsewhere.

    You will be fine, it happens.... It has happend to me twice before. I just like to switch to a new needle cause it wont be as sharp as it first was...

    Should have just pulled it out and tried again immediately elsewhere. You should ideally change out the pin, but it isn't necessary.
