    Extraction Question

    Wondering if I am doing something wrong here. I am trying to extract 1ml of test-e so I put 1ml of air in the pin and push it in the bottle then try to extract the 1ml of test. When I do that it seems like the plunger is being sucked back in. Do I need to put more air into the bottle before trying to extract. Granted I am using a 23g to extract( didnt have 20g) I will be warming the gear up in hot water before trying to extract.

    Just keep pulling on the plunger. The vacuum is what draws the oil into the syringe.

    I dont know why people want to be in such a hurry. How long does it take you this way, 30, 45 seconds? Are you injecting that fast also pushing the plunger down hard and as fast as possible? Next question will by why does my injection site hurt for 2 or 3 days?

    I totally agree. Just hold back the plunger and let it fill. It is normal for the plunger to want to get sucked back into the vial. Sometimes it's worse than others.
