Serious fina/prop problem!

[general31]

I am on my 7th shot today and I think I might not even take anymore. My first 3 shots were good. Not too much pain. My forth shot was in my glute and it hurt bad for 7 days. Next I went up to my delt. I shot in my delt once already w/ little pain, this time it was terrible. Then I went to my calf. That was on friday morning and by friday night my calf was swollen up almost double! I can not even walk. This morning it is just as bad. I have tried heat, cold packs, pills, massaging, nothing helps, when I stand it throbs so bad I can't stand it. What the F**K is going on. I know prop hurts but there is no way guys are working out w/ the pain I have. My gear is homebrew so maybe it is bad, but I don't think so. I am shooting 1cc of each eod. What the hell can I do. I am seeing results already but I have to be able to function.

Pop some Advil and suck it up bro.

[general31]

Dude their is no sucking up not being able to walk because my calf is double the size it usually is. I'm poping 5 advil every 4 hour and nothing is helping. Is it common for prop to make you swell up so bad?

i never do calf injections anywho,

stick with delts, and glutes bro. did you aspirate before injecting the fluid? you might have been in a vein. that will definatly cause you MAJOR problems bro.

I always aspirate , but when I stuck myself my leg twitched bad, maybe I hit a nerve.

shooting prop into your calf is asking for trouble as far as i am concerned i wont even inject test in my calf (**** def. herts bro) how often r u injecting ? try switching up your site rotation and heating up the liquid befor injection...


P.S twithing is no big deal i get that all the time just slow down the injection... goodluck

bro, it will go away in a few days. like flash said, suck it up! its some big ass nerve you hit. i have felt the pain you speak of!

Why dont you cut the prop with oil. Buy some sesame oil and run it through a whatman into another vial to be sure it is sterile. You can add a touch of Ba to the oil too be extra safe (too much will just cause more irritation). When your ready to inject put a cc of prop and a half or more cc of sesame that should take some of the sting out of the shot.

dude im 3 weeks deep into my ED 150 prop/ 125fina. jsut take it like a man. u will get use to it. i almost wanted to quit cause it hurt so bad. but once the **** kicked in i was loving the pain fro mthe prop. cause u know it works and plus u get use to it real quick. just keep it up and use b-12

[almostgone]

lucky so far I guess, 150 TP(syno h) eod, just a dull ache like a tetanus shot the next day..,yea, I did find a nerve once ,but overall, pain not bad at all..

what size and lenght pins are you useing for these injections.

[general31]

what size and lenght pins are you useing for these injections.

23g 1 1/2" glutes and 23g 1" everywhere else. Would 25g help? How about b12. b12 is cheap, maybe I will try some of that!

[smalldogbigdogbrain]

i get more pain out of 25g for some reason, I can feel it going in more and it takes forever to get it out of the syringe. Stick with 23g IMO

I agree. I have a hard enough time getting my gear out of a 23g, I'll stick w/ them. Thanxs Bros!

use an 18 to draw, and a 23 to inject. makes life so much easier...

not sure about the 18 to draw a lot of the vet cyclers have said it leads to rubber breakage in the cap when you are stabbing it with an 18 gauge every day?

exactely, u get little pieces of rubber floatin in your ****. not good. i use a 21 to draw and a 25 to inject. after i draw the stuff in the syringe, i put it under HOT running water for about 2 minutes and it goes in like butter. heating it also makes the oil spread out in the muscle easier cause it is less viscious (sp)

[Troyboy]

Prop does that to me too, try cutting it down with some sterile oil or something...

[Krunchtime]

Ya sterile oil should do the job.

[hatchblack]

Where do you get sterile oil and how much do you cut it with....1 to 1 ratio...?

Planning on adding some prop so I am a needle phobic fag as it is....needs to be as painless as possible.
