So I just did my shot for the week subcutanious [sp?] i did the check to make sure i wasn't in a vein or w.e and then did it, but afterwards it bled a good little stream of blood until i got a bandaid and some pressure on it T - 10 seconds or so waited about 30 more seconds and then changed the bandaid.  It had stopped bleeding at this point.  Usually there is a little lump where the injection was, but I'm not sure if thats really due to the T being in there or if its inflammation or whatnot but it doesnt seem as big as usual.  This all really could just be in my head, but I'm kind of afraid that that was more T stained red with a bit of blood rather than mostly blood. 
I mean its probably not the worst of the worst thing in the world to loose out on just one shot, but I'm sort of curious if anyone knows if this is even possible?  or even if you don't know do you think it seems like it is possible or do you think that was most likely just blood from the flesh wound puncture?
I solemnly swear I am up to no good.

IANAD, but here's two pieces of information that might put your mind at ease.

1) The fact that T is suspended in oil means it's a depot injection, which means that it stays where you inject it, and it will be absorbed over a long period of time. Bleeding after a shot is very common, so obviously that's not all it takes for the T to come out. It tends to stay in the depot that the shot makes.

2) I've heard of T leaking out from a shot (when someone does something like nick a blood vessel, or something else that would cause a spray or gush of blood), but from what I've heard, you would see the oil come out before the blood, and it would not be "stained with blood." It would look just like it does before you inject it.

I had it bleed out a little, I pushed it in too fast and then pulled the needle right out, I got a bit of the oil out, oops.

Just go slower and remember deep is good.
