Injecting Crashed Gear

[M302_Imola]

Awhile back my order arrived and 2 out of the 3 Test Cyp 10ml vials had crashed (crystallized). I started my cycle using the un-crashed vial and just last week ran out so I was forced to use the crashed test cyp. I heated the vial using a hair drier and after about 2 minutes the crystals dissolved. I drew up the test and injected it into my glute. Now my ass is sore (way more sore than the un-crashed test cyp) and I have a knot around the injection site. My question is, should I have waited for the test to cool down a bit before I injected it? I mean I heated it up and then immediately injected it...obviously I don't want to let it cool enough for the crystals to form again, but what do you guys think? Note: I made sure to keep everything sterile to I don't think infection is my problem.

how do you know it crashed?

my buddy has test c that had crystals, too concentrated for mg/ml. he just heats it up in warm water and injects, no issues, 3 years old.

i think you just injected to fast, might have been too hot.

Try going slower next time heat it up by running it under warm water....sometimes no matter what test just hurts....depending on the lab it could of been a different batch with higher etoh concentration which will increase injection pain

crashed = crystals forming. My fiance gives me the shots and always goes really slow so I don't think that is the prob...might have been too hot though.

I'm sure this is a different batch then the vial of Test Cyp I the started cycle w/ (as the 1st vial was not crystallized). All of my gear is from the same UGL though. Like you said the solvent concentration might be higher. Trust me, I know all about injection pain...I have rain prop several times. However, I have never had any gear crash before so maybe some this post injection soreness (more than normal) is par for the course. I wonder if I should try cutting it w/ some sterile cottonseed oil?
