+ 2 Drawing in Air - Did I make a mistake?

ad

Today was my 2nd pin. First one I followed procedure to the T. However, I strayed ever so slightly and hopefully not costly.
I thought nothing of it at the time I was pinning but looking back, I am a bit worried. The first pin, I drew in air inside the vial. This time I did it outside the vial.

Did I basically inject unsterile air into the vial? Did I ruin the vial? Am I just overthinking what I've read previously. I've seen advise saying draw in from inside the vial since it's sterile air. I've even read drawing in air is not required. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Sorry to seem like a dumb@ss but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Yeah I did clean the top off and drawing was harder and I didn't experience the vacuum I did in my first pin so it makes sense what you are saying. I def. toss the needles safely, I stocked up on pins. I would never even consider reuse. I honestly didn't even bleed a drop. The first pin was a quick bubble of blood and I was dry. Haven't needed a bandaid yet, but I keep them close in the event of a gusher. LOL

Oh shit bro wtf did you do! I hope you didn't pin that after you drew in environmental air! I've got a buddy who breaths that unsterile environmental air and his weiner broke! No shit!
Next time you draw air make sure that you wrap your syringe in the highest quality filter paper possible, soak it in a 50/40 alchohol/ether solution and then draw the air. Once the air is drawn, throw that syringe away and get another one and then draw the air from the environment. Use that air and you'll be good to go.

Excellent Tron. As long as the altitude is above 9800 ft. You'll be fine. My cousin does this at sea level and one of his nuts won't grow hair on it. It's a shitty situation all the way around.

That's funny. I pissed my pants yesterday. But didn't really have a reason.

Thanks brother. Unfortunately the ass modeling industry has me booked. I think once that dies down and my ass ages I'll try my hand at the comedy bit. Smile

Cleyon's porno habit makes Ted Bundy's look look like a the bra and panty section of a Sear's catalog.
It reflects in every one of his posts. Sick bastard.

Just tryin' to ease the tension baby!
We have all been there in the first time experience. Worried about every little thing. It's a good thing. Helps us build good habits and keeps us healthy. I actually like that you ask the little questions. +1 from me for not being too big of a pussy to ask the little questions. Smile
