arvekap injections

hi all. Trying to get pregnant again and my doctor decided to do I guess what’s called long protocol and has given me arvekap injections. I’m having a really hard time getting all the liquid out after mixing the powder with the ampoule. I stick the syringe inside the vial and a lot stays at bottom no matter what I do. Yesterday it filled so much with air from releasing and pulling over and over again that the liquid exploded and I lost it all over the table. 🙄 any pointers?

HI Corchi. Could you use a longer needle to draw up the liquid, then change needles to give it? Good luck! Diane
