1st cycle 1st shot 1st pain?

[wastingtime3]

I started my first cycle Saturday Oct. 1. I am taking Test E at 500mg a week. Also taking nolva at 10mg and Adex at .25mg a day. Took my first shot of Test E at 250mg Saturday. I used a 23g 1.5" pin. All went well i thought, but I didn't go balls deep with the pin, maybe left a 1/4" out. So I got done and went to sit on my couch a couple hours later and felt something move from my ass cheek to my back. A day later a knot formed in my lower back about 2.5 inches from my injection site. Not real red and a little sore, so I let my wife massage it out on Tuesday after some heat. Knot went way down the next day but still a little red and sore. Did my second injection Tuesday night in the other side, and all went better just a sore ass. I did inject a lot slower and massage a lot more after. Anyway my temp for last 3 days is around 99.5 to 100F. My tailbone area where the lump was is pretty sore. After this long ass story, Is it possible I have an infection or can the test be given me flu like symptoms already. The doc is properly close in my future

Unless you have a ton of fat on your glutes, 1.25 inches would have been in the muscle. That said, no way should the lump be traveling. That would suggest you did shoot the oil sub Q and not IM. You have a much higher risk of abcess that way but it will probably absorb over time. In the future, take your time and sink the needle where it has to go.

Im not a veteran like a lot of the guys here, but Im in week 9 of my first cycle with a few shots under my belt. The first shot really sucked. Just like yours, no sweat at first, but I woke up that night with a throbbing ass. Each glute shot got better as time went by. Around week 6 I couldn't reach around to hit my glute without cramping anymore. So, I started hitting my quads. The first few quad shots hurt pretty bad too. But now they are used to it and hardly hurt at all. Icing the injection spot helped the pain for me. Also, watch the if the shot goes subcutaneus instead of intramuscular. I've had 2 injections that either did not go deep enough or leaked back into the fat. It caused swelling of the skin in a large patch around the injection site. Some ice and a few days later the area cleared up.

Thanks for the replys guys. The lump is pretty much disapated and not to red. Maybe a little red from my wife rubbing it and the heat that I 've been applying. The slight fever and flu like systoms gets me woried. It might just be a reaction to the BA or the test itself? Next shot saturday in the quad
