    ouch!

    After my last injection my ass cheek swelled up about the size of half a grapefruit. Im about 7 weeks done with my test only cycle and it hasnt happened before. It hurts like an S.O.B. What happened? How long will it last?

    i meant how long, it could be an absess. is it warm to the touch and red? i had a friend who experienced the same thing by not using a long enough needle to get deep into the muscle, he was injecting into sub-q tissue, which caused the problem.

    It could be a reaction to the BA. Are you rotating your injection sites? Here is a site that can help with injection questions.
