    Yes so the air is at the plunger side. To cause an air embolism, upwards of 15cc of air would have to be injected directly into a vein. With the size of a slin pin and the size of the tiny air bubble, injecting a bit of air sub q would cause no issue at all. Bear in mind that you only want to draw enough air to clear the syringe of the compound being injected, which takes very little.

    Great stuff, thanks!

    I did an injection just there and I did it exactly as you described, I had the bubble of air at the plunger side of the syringe, so all of the liquid was pushed into me, there was none left in the needle.

    I think I still might dilute my hCG a bit more though just to get the dosing more accurate, and also to minimise the waste (because even if I waste as little as 0.05ml per injection then I'm wasting about one third of my hCG!).

    One other thing, I wish I had known in advance that there's a massive vacuum inside those hCG vials!

    I loaded about 2.5ml of bacteriostatic water into a syringe and I stuck the needle into the hCG vial. I was about to push the plunger, but then I realised the syringe was empty! The vacuum in the vial had already sucked the entire 2.5ml into the vial as soon as I pushed the needle through the rubber!

    Anyway I'll know next time.

    Since my balls are already shrunk a bit, I'm gonna take about 400iu per day for a few days until I see some size return, and then I'll knock the dosage down to about 150iu per day just to keep my balls alive for the rest of my cycle.

    I had the same issue using such a little amount of water,i opted to use 10ml of water and that means each ml is 500iu.
