My first Inject!

**Eydea** · 11-21-2006, 07:31 AM

So today I did my first injection, and let me just say WOW.

Last night (Monday) I was supposed to do my very first one. I sat there and stared at the needle (22g 1.5") for a solid 30 minutes, I psyched myself out beyond belief and just let it be until this morning.

I stand up, fill the thing, switch the needle and am glaring at the thing that will be inside of my ass. Stared right at it for what seemed like eternity.

Put it close to my right glute, and thought to myself "On third breath out, get'er right in there". One breathe, two, here comes three, AH here is three, THREE GO GO GO. And it jabbed me, the first poke and 1/4" inch I felt a sudden warm rush over me. My hand started to shake like crazy and from there on it slid right through like a knife through butter, smooth. Then it suddenly got tougher to push, at first I was like 'shit uh oh shit shit' but then realized the FAQ and all the other stuff I read, there was my ass muscle

So, I reached around, and just started pushing on the plunger. 2CC went in like nobodies business. Near the end of it, I gave it a nice last squeeze/push on that plunger to get all that gear out of there, yanked the sucker out, and put a cotton ball on there.

I am done. No longer a virgin, here comes the Darkside!

P.S My ass is sort of sore now. I'm going to take that as virgin muscle 'syndrome' and TRY not to freak out. There was not a spec of blood so I should be good.

Congrats! You can also use a 23g it will hurt that much less. What does your cycle look like? Have you thought of any other sites to inject?

Thanks!

I tried to find a 23-25G 1.5" pin but there were NONE locally and I really didn't want to order online and have to wait, so I went to about 6 different pharmacies and they were the only ones that carried anything over 5/8ths length.

Cycle
Week 1-12 500mg/week Test
Week 1-2 40mg/day dbol
Week 3-4 30mg/day Dbol
Week 14-16 Clomid 150mg/day
Week 17-18 Clomid 50mg/day
Week 14-18 Nolvadex 40mg/day

Have extra Nolva on hand incase of gyno. Also have HCG but I'm still researching as to where to put it in my cycle, any tips?

edit: So far only injection spots i've thought about were Glutes (doing 2 injections, mondays and thursdays, rotating left/right). I thought of doing quads but would need different pins no?

**theboss** · 11-21-2006, 07:55 AM

no...same size is good...just did quad last friday...but with 22g....just dont put needle in all the way...i kept it 1/2" out

**MrMe** · 11-21-2006, 07:58 AM

Cycle looks good. You can use your 1.5" pin for all other injection areas, just use 1" of the pin. Quads should be fine, but like i said, 22g is a little more painfull then others, but youll live

You can run HCG during the cycle E4D at about 500iu to keep the boys from leaving. You can also run it up till PCT.

good job, the glute shoot is the hardest for me, its hard to have steady control . rember rotate your inject sites and again good job.

Yeah it was difficult to control for sure. I somehow got my left arm around the backside of my body and just held it upright as I pushed on the plunger with my right arm. I have no idea how I got it, but it worked!

That's funny man ... Good job. I would guess everyone was the same way their first injections -- I sure in the hell was. Took me awhile to get the nerve to poke myself. It's like blank runs for 50 times in a row and after you do it's like big deal, what was the fuss.

It was difficult, I felt like I was twisting myself out of proportion. I think the left side will be much more difficult because I have NO co-ordination in my left hand.

Don't go all the way in with the needle dude, with the glutes especially -- it can be ackward, the needle pulled at an angle and not likely but could bust off the pin. Leave a little exposed to pull out the pin if it does break off. Just a precaution.

Oh the needle was definitely not 1.5" of the way in. I'd say I had about 1/4" of the needle still visable out of my glute before the plastic part of the syringe.

I'm still a little bit sore(although about 2 hours later) and its probably because of my virgin muscles to this stuff(as I've read). I only injected 2CC so I think that should be alright as well.

Something to get used to for a bit I guess

**Huckster** · 11-21-2006, 12:08 PM

Just a few tips (I've only done a 10 weeker of Test E and dbol ) so consider the source.

My first few injections were quite sore for a few days after. It all depends on the gear. If you are using the Mythical Firebreathing thing from England Test, I have heard that that lab causes most soreness. I only hit the glutes.

What I did to elevate alot of soreness was to warm the gear up with a hair dryer before injecting. First I heated up the vial so it would be easier to draw, then I heated it up while in the syringe for a few seconds then shot it in. Also jumping back in the hot shower and messaging the injection site helps a bit.

Enjoy the gains, welcome to the Darkside!

**SMAN12b** · 11-21-2006, 12:15 PM

Welcome to the darkside.....try going a little slower when you push the plunger in..

***G-1000*** · 11-21-2006, 12:20 PM

Welcome to hell.

Just keep rember to keep everthing clean and steril.

**theboss** · 11-21-2006, 12:37 PM

**theboss** · 11-21-2006, 12:49 PM

:

First of all next time some one tells you to try something don't recommend it others especially newbies!!!...

Adding muscle creams may lead to abcess why risk it?

If your in soo much pain gently massage it use heat or ice pack or take a tyelnol...

**theboss** · 11-21-2006, 01:25 PM

never thought of that...but you are probably right.
the one that hurt the most is the one some else gave me (1st shot)...the rest are np

**JohnboyF** · 11-21-2006, 01:29 PM

Eydea,

Don't freak out seems like you did everything fine... the pain will go down.. My first injection was brutal lasted 3 days i think..

dont use a muscle cream!

Not freaking out the slightest. I couldn't imagine not feeling anything after injecting my body with something. Its only slightly sore now and really its not all that bad, feels better after walking for a bit as I get some blood flow going me thinks. I sit all day at my job so I'm walking whenever I can on breaks...but really, its not bad at all and I'm sure I will be fine by tomorrow.

I was perfectly sterile. Pulled out the test, wiped the top with isopropyl(let it evap), cleaned injection area with iso, drew with a fresh needle, took the needle off, put fresh one on and went to town. Then made sure to clean area again after injection and got rid of needles/syringes.

**thunderdan** · 11-21-2006, 02:34 PM

Welcome to the other side. In a few weeks you will be counting down the hours till your next shot. Or you will just say fvck it Ill do an extra one!!

**orton4** · 11-21-2006, 11:44 PM

eyeda in looking at your first post it seems like you pushed the syringe pretty fast cause you said "the 2 ccs went in like nobodys buisness" i would go slower going fast can lead to extra un needed pain... everything else you did seems fine... you will get the coordination in your fingers to push the plunger easier and aspirate easier... just go a lil slower next time it can cause less pain also... gluck with the cycle bro

**JMan06** · 11-22-2006, 01:19 AM

ALSO... make sure you asperate. Maybe I missed it but in your description you didnt mention it.

Congrats on your first inject tho bro. Theyll get easier.

**Dangerdan** · 11-22-2006, 07:37 AM

Welcome Bro. My first injection was with a 1.5 18guage needle.

**Eydea** · 11-22-2006, 07:47 AM

Definitely aspirated guys. I just didn't mention it. I don't think I pushed the plunger too quickly but its hard to say how fast I pushed it in because that session felt like an eternity!

I feel fine today too. Don't even feel anything at all!

**ghostdog128** · 11-22-2006, 07:52 AM

Ahhhh brings back memories of my first time...LOL I remember after my first shot I got all lightheaded and flush thought I was going to pass out.. I thought I did something wrong.. Just nerves..

EYDEA I'm glad you're keeping it simple, I would recommend 25 gauge needles myself but 23 will work fine too..
