    question on quad injections

    It looks like 2 to me as well.............. I have only injected in the side of my quads..... I have almost no pain when doing the injection there.

    Go straight in, not at an angle.

    Straight in as if I'm looking down at my leg... or better yet as in if I just dropped the pin straight down?

    Straight in as if your leg was a cylinder, and the needle goes in perpendicular to the surface of the cylinder. But you should inject a little to the outside (about 2" to 3") of the quad. If you go directly in the middle as you are looking down at it, you might hit the nerve. I hit my nerve once and my leg had a big twich. Almost like the doctor hit my knee with one of those hammers. And it felt like a shock.

    #2. I always do like that, coming halfway between the top n the side. Direct needle toward center of thigh. This always works for me. 1 in. should be good. My legs are skinny as hell n I can bury that
