Am I the only one who keeps hitting nerves?

**xephonics** · 08-21-2009, 04:30 PM

Ok I decided to try quads 2 shots before tonight.

The first one went freaking great - no pain, easy access, can sit down and do it, etc

The second one I hit a nerve on my first pin and had to repin. My leg was cramped for 3 days.

Tonight I hit my original quad and guess what... I hit a damn nerve again. I had to re-pin again.

Is this just a bad spot for hitting nerves, or am I just horridly unlucky?

P.s. I am just guessing it is a nerve, since whn I hit it, large portions of my quad muscle twicth/spasm, and my leg kicks a bit.

Pin in the upper out glute and shoulders. Those areas have less nerves.

I guess at some point it happens to us all....

I was unsure about trying outer glute, as most picture show a tiny spot to hit, and not a general area. And I was worried if I did shoulders they might cramp up and I'd be f'd as I have to use them a LOT at work.

But I'll prolly try either of those now, since 2 nerve hits in a row is VERY annoying.

Doctors recommend upper outer glute and shoulders. The spot on the glute is plenty big, 2" by 2".

Stick to upper glute shots for now.

Don't know what size pins you are using.

I go for any where in the upper outter 1/4 of the glute.... Yer ass is probably one of the best spots to pin.

**xephonics** · 08-21-2009, 04:44 PM

I cannot get to my ass to stretch the skin and to pin, it is very uncomfortable. It hurts the least, but it is awkward as shit.

all my pins are 23g 1.5"

Quads are ok if you go 1'' . Find meatiest spot , not side of quad but part where curves starts to side , pin should be about 30 degrees to vertical air .

Not sure what text book is , but this is best way for me .

Good luck and good pinning !

I have said this before.. tried quad shot 1 time, poked hit nerv filled pluger up so fast it blew the syopper right out. never ever bothered to try agin. I just have my girl hit my glutes and glutes only. Actually she hit a nerve in my left glute for the 1st time ever on Monday Felt wierd! i could feel my insides moving or something like that as she moved the needle around then I bled for a few seconds and it was over. probably will happen may ore times as I start to build up more and more scar tissue and limit the injection area

I like pinning my upper middle quad. No pain, no veins.

What are you injecting? Stick with qlutes, they are easy. Shoulders and pecs are also easy

**ajweb** · 08-21-2009, 08:39 PM

i was little nervous about shooting pecs for some reason but now that i have i freaking love it...easiest and least painful for me and for some reason no soreness like i get in quads or glutes

**xephonics** · 08-21-2009, 09:07 PM

injecting iranian test E.

The test goes in fine, no pain at all, just the initial nerve hit that sucks :P And I learned that hitting the nerve and trying to go in deeper does not work either, sections of my leg I've never seen move spasmed like hell lol.

I have hit nerves in the quads but found something that works well. Let your arms hang naturally and relaxed and pin right where your wrist is.
