Had it happen today for the first time? In my glute. Didnt even notice it until i was pullin up my udies> any ideas??

For the first time? Is it your first time taking steroids? lol...anyways, you might want to give a little more background info. But If blood came out id assume you hit a blood vessel.

haha..no no..first time this has happened. i assumed the same..but ive heard if u inject into a vessel you get a nice coughing fit for 15min or so..that never heppened?? maybe i pushed thru a vein but injected into the muscle??

[Scorcher2005]

Thats what i meant, i meant you just HIT the blood vessel.

Do you aspirate?..

Push the needle all the way in, using two fingers pull the plunger back about a quarter of an inch; check for air bubbles (You should see a couple of small air bubbles come in the chamber of the syringe when pulling back on the plunger) [This is called “ASPIRATING” Never inject any where in your body without first ASPIRATING] If you pull back on the plunger and blood comes into the syringe, Immediately REMOVE the needle from your glute; Your about to inject into a vein and that would be very bad. In fact it’s dangerous. Usually the vein will just collapse but the oil could get to your heart, this would be very painful and potentially deadly.

i did asperate.and saw no blood..but then when i pulled the needle out there was a small amount in the tip of the needle? and my ass doesnt hurt at all yet and its been 24hrs now? whre did my juice go?? haha usually hurts a about 4 hours later??

I don't know too much about roids but as far as injecting in the glutes the safest area is the upper outside area where there are fewer veins and nerves. And I know it hurts more the faster you inject it so if you took your time and injected more slowly it may have hurt less. Also don't use the same site too often. Maybe not more than twice a week? It's possible if you use the same site there may be some broken blood vessels bleeding into the area. Also it is possible to get a little bleeding from an injection without having went into a vein. So since your still alive....

One more thing is if you are injecting too shallow you could form a knot or absess and you could get fluid from that that looks like blood.

hey thanks a lot guys! i really appreciate the feedback!! i did inject lower in the glute than normal. the last time i went lower i didnt get much pain either? My main concern was that the gear is in my ass still and at work and floating around elswhere. hope it kicks in soon! just hit week 4.

Nah I don't think that's possible. It's eventually going to absorb even if you do it subcutaneously or something just maybe not as efficiently.

No biggie, even when my Doc gives me a shot it bleeds a little
