So this is probably a very stupid question, but I still need to know. This is my second injectable cycle, I've previously done a Test-E/D-bol cycle and an Anavar/Clen cycle. I'm currently on a Deca/Test cycle, it's actually a question regarding the syringe.
Now on my first cycle, I didn't really have to worry about how much I was drawing into the syringe as I was using ampules and basically just had to draw all of liquid out. However, on my current cycle I'm using the larger bottles with cork stoppers, therefore I have to use the syringe to check how much I am drawing up. Now obviously I'd think it would be safe to assume that you read the syringe with the needle end pointing downwards, as this is the way you would draw out of the bottle. However, when I turn the syringe so that the needle is pointing in the air, it appears on the syringe as though I've drawn up to much liquid. For example, with the syringe pointing downwards, it would read 1.6ml, whereas pointing upwards it would read closer to 2ml. I'd now imagine that you'd have to read the syringe with the needle pointing upwards, but that doesn't really make much sense.
Can anyone shed some light on this, or if it's some kind of optical illusion. I'd have thought it would be the other way around. Thanks in advance and I fully appreciate I may just walk away from this looking like a complete idiot.
