I always hit veins in quads, kinda inevitable theres just so many, but the only too times i have aspirated blood was in the glutes

From the research ive done the possibility is very low. I have thin skin so I can see most of my surface veins and that helps. I think the guys who frequently hit veins/nerves are injecting in risky places. As long as you stick to quads/delts/upper outer glute the chance is low.

Ya it is very rare and 1 in 30 seems a lil hi. It's only happened maybe 5 times in the last 5 yrs for me. It may not happen again for you in a while. Keep aspirating though brother all it takes is that one time

I was kind of wondering about that cough. When I was on cycle, a few times I aspirated, didn't see any blood, but seconds after injecting I'd get tickle (definitely the oil) in my lungs and I'd start coughing. That was just from test e. I figured I got a little bit transferred through some capillaries.

Pulmonary embolism would be no bueno:-)
Ya I'm a delt and quad fan and I aspirate like it's religion for me.
