    First Injection, Homebrew, Crippling Pain....

    So I have an extremely reliable source on raws and decided to run my first cycle of Test E. Yesterday I took my first injection in the ventrogluteal area and today I woke up and I can barely walk.


    Relative Information:

    Potency was brewed to 300mg/ml
    Used 1ml
    BA concentration was 2%
    Used http://absinth.greatnow.com/calcpowder2.html to figure out quantities.
    Injection sight has no lumps or anything and feels fine.
    Used .22um filters, alcohol swabs, etc etc...girlfriend is a nurse and helped along the way, does flawless injections and keeps everything mega-sterile.


    I really dont think its an infection.



    Basically my questions are this

    1) Is it normal?
    2) Will every injection be like this or is this a "noob muscle" kind of thing where it will only happen in the beginning?
    3) What was the cause and is there anything I can do after the fact to fix it so it doesnt happen in the futre?





    Kinda hoping its just a "welcome to AAS use, it happens to alot of people on the first poke, your body will get used to it and it will hurt less with each poke" response.


    Kinda pissed that I wont be able to workout today

    I'd say its a combination of gear being 300mg/ml and virgin muscle

    My first shot of test prop hurt like hell for a week, but it got progressively better.

    Use a heating pad to disperse the oil through the tissue & aggressivly massage it, it will hurt bad at first, but within 30 min or so, you'll feel like a million bucks bro. If you dont mind, post a breakdown of your brew & lets see if maybe something went wrong there that you didnt catch...................it happens bro, no shame.
    How many grams of powder?
    How many ml's of oil?
    How many ml's of BB?
    How many ml's of BA?

    If this is your first injection ever, I'd chalk it up to virgin muscles.

    If the dose was 300mg/mL, with 1mL, of test e - there really shouldn't be too much pain. Especially with BA at 2%. It could have also been the location, sometimes I'll just put the oil in the wrong spot and it'll hurt for a bit. Not sure if it is pressure on a nerve, or what, to be honest.

    If the issue persists, you could always cut with sterile grapeseed oil. But I'm sure it'll pass soon. If you have any fear of infection, monitor redness - key indicator.

    How many grams of powder?
    How many ml's of oil?
    How many ml's of BB?
    How many ml's of BA?
    56ml USP Grapeseed Oil
    30g Test Powder
    2ml BA
    20ml BB

    Filtered through .22um filters into 10 seperate 10ml vials.



    I got a bottle of Motrin/Ibuprofin. Hopefully this helps out.





    Im almost 100% sure that its not infection, the spot looks like nothing ever happened there, cant even see the pin prick.

    Ended up with alittle over 100, keep in mind the 30g of powder does increase the volume.


    I used that much because thats what I was told to use lol.

    With Test E you can pretty much go without BB. I guess to fix your problem you could dilute it somewhat with some sterile oil.

    Not 100% sure I agree with it being 300mg/ml that is causing the pain. I have had plenty of Test Enth brews at 250mg/ml that were painless. Do you really think an extra 50mg/ml would cause crippling pain?

    shit mate!
    had to google that one to understand what the hell you were talking about? =)

    only time i ever had a painful reaction was when i was injecting tren into my calves. not sure why, if everything was sterile, and you were not allergic to the carrier oil, and the compound was legit, i don't see why it would hurt so much?

    Yeah, i saw the virgin muscle comment. not sure i buy that though. I'm thinking it might be time to reexamine all your ingredients, and reverify you are not allergic to your carrier oil

    No but the virgin muscle might be, or he didn't inject right and hit something.. One time I got the same pain, but I nicked the nerve

    Only time I have had discomfort was when I jammed the gear in. I injected quickly because my dogs were running down the hall and I knew they would jump on me. I hurt for nearly a week after that injection, and it was the only time I had pain like that.

    Make sure your GF is injecting SLOWLY. She may be clean, but make sure she takes...her...time.

    Other that that, I agree with everything above. Contributing factors can be concentration, goof in ingredients and virgin muscle.

    Actually now that I think of it, any experience I've had with nurses they inject very quickly, they dont have time to hang around so mabey this could attribute to your pain like JV said

    She sticks the needle in quickly but takes her time pushing the solution in.

    I may have never agreed with something more than I agree with this statement.
