    I some what diagree. Sometimes you will get a small drop in the syringe when you aspirate I think this might be from the original poke through the skin because if you notice every time you pull the pin out you have a drop of blood there. So I think when you asperate and your pulling and theres a vacume meaning that the plunger wont draw out easily then your in the muscle. If your in a vain or blood vessel the blunger will draw much easier and youll get a rush of blood in the syringe.

    Hmmm, I have to disagree. I've given myself hundreds of shots. never once when I aspirate does a little bit of blood enter the syringe unless I'm in a vein (which is very rare)
