Thanks for the site! It’s asking too much even for a trained physician to answer all the questions patients will have but your site sure has answered many. I surely appreciate that! I haven’t read all the posts about injections so maybe this has been answered already. I’ve injected about a dozen times and about half the time it has been effective and half the time not. I figure I must not be hitting the Corpus C. Some members have suggested retracting the plunger slightly to see if you get blood into the syringe tube, that meaning you are in the CC. What do you think about that idea? If you answer that one for me, I’ve got a couple more. Thanks again for organizing the site. I’d gladly donate if I could find the ‘Donate’ button.

Welcome to the forum.

Seeing if you can withdraw a little blood, aspiration, is a legitimant technique and works well for some guys. I actually find that plunger resistance is a better method of determining proper needle placement. If you're in the correct spot it should be easy to depress the plunger. Almost no resistance. If it's not easy try a bit deeper or shallower. It could be either. Also note that not all brands of syringes work well with this method. The BD brand, while high quality, in my experience, has much harder plunger resistance making the plunger resistance method difficult. I'm currently using Easy Touch brand. Publix store brand worked OK.

Good luck.
