Quad Injection

Good point, that was my first out of about 30 shots hitting something, luck of the jab hah

If this was the first time you have bleed from hitting something, you are doing good.

Seriously. Just on Thursday when I pulled the needle there was blood just rushing out, right down my leg and everything. Only for a couple of seconds though.


The interesting thing that the OP has said is that there is no blood period when aspirating. That's what I was wondering about too. I could feel that it hit something, but no blood came back into the syringe. As a matter of fact I aspirated twice, once at the beginning and once when it was at half a CC, and got no blood whatsoever.

But then I pulled that mofo out and it looked like I just got shot...

If you nicked or went through a vein, and then you aspirate, you may not see blood, because when you are drawing back to aspirate, you are not pulling blood from the vein, and the needle is acting as a plug in your skin.

The blood may be there at the needle under the skin, but the point of the syringe is far enough down and into the muscle that the blood isnt getting to it. Once that syringe has been pulled out, you are letting the blood out then. The more blood you see, then odds are the more of the vein you went through.
