Anyone else experience this? When aspirating to check for hitting a blood vessel (hit one the other day and nearly fainted) I sometimes get an air bubble in the chamber. Today I carried on injecting and it suddenly hurt like hell so had to stop and waste .5ml of Sust! Anyone? any tips?!

Do more research next time. An air bubble is what you're supposed to and want to get.

INjecting too fast I don't do, and I was always under the impression that injecting air into your muscle was bad.......

The air was certainly not the source of the pain. More likely you were just close to a nerve. It happens. Why was the sust wasted? Just pick a new spot and stick yourself again...

LAst needle at the time and didn't want to re stick it - bit of medical experience and always advised never to re stick a needle. What does Feli-fly mean by your supposed to get an air bubble when aspirating while your stuck in? Can you expand?

When u aspirate you draw back, what seems to be air from your muscle..ie u get a small air bubble, that u drew out of your muscle...just push it back in with the gear. The reason u got pain is what 250 said, the gear u injected ended up "pressing" on a nerve, or u moved the needle inside u, to press on a nerve, and thats where the pain came from. just draw out the pin. change the head and restab yourself.
