big pins

**jokr** · 01-07-2013, 09:15 PM

So the walgreens by me has only had 20g 1.5 inch pins and im used to 23g so im having some serious pains and i was curious if theres any tricks to avoiding this.. ive taken a whole cycle of sust on 21s and it was 10% of the pain i feel nowadays and its prop so a lot more of them. Ive done several cycles and i know to rub the inject point and even stretch a little to avoid it pooling.. not sure if its the prop or what but jeebus i gotta change something up or i might just start my pct and dump my bottles. Anyone?

Slow down injecting!

I use 20g 1.5in needles all the time ( all i use, all i can get) I find what make my pain alot more minimal is i Prep everything then hop in a hot shower half way through i grab antibacterial soap and massage while cleaning the area im gonna inject, jump out the shower shoot it up hold a cotton ball on it for 30 seconds with pressure then hop back in. I dont massage the area after anymore for some reason i get more bruising from that. Lmk if you need anymore advice. 20g aint so bad and you can pull and push ur oil much easier and more consistent.

Buy some 23's or 25's?

Pinning less isnt possible its prop and i go eod. Im hoping to god its legit gear but the gains and changes all point towards real i just dont get why it hurts so damn bad unless prop is spose to hurt more.. im def trying the shower trick in the a.m. when my left quad is due for a pinning. Thx for the help wether it works or not lol. Fingers crossed. Im tired of limping from clean accurate injects. Only time i ever limped more was from my idiot friend hitting my i.c. band.. Ouch. (Live and learn then get swole right?)

Lol ouch... I love seeing the pictures of the big guys who use the drawing needle by accident. Then they walk around with a bandaid lmao don't look so tough after that.

**Flawdaboy** · 01-08-2013, 11:26 AM

Yeah my buddy couldnt get anything else and i wasnt on cycle so i didnt have needles hes like ahh **** it and went out to his garage (his mom was a equestrian vet) grabbed some of her supplies smallest thing she had was a 14g. He wouldnt sit down for a week he said his ass was black n blue as well.

**Soar** · 01-08-2013, 11:30 AM

Lmao I think a few week wait for some proper gear would be well worth it at that point

Options:

1. Ar-r . Obviously.
2. Pharmacies. In most places it's perfectly legal to buy, and they ask no questions.
3. Medical supply stores. Most towns have them, large cities have many. Go in and ask for a box of whatever size you need.
4. Needle exchange. Not just for junkies. They don't judge, it's free, and they are bound to confidentiality (at least here they are).

**senorrebo** · 01-08-2013, 12:29 PM

They sell up to 22g at hardware stores and tractor/farm supply stores around here. Might wanna try those. too.

**jokr** · 01-08-2013, 05:46 PM

Ya its prop so i didnt have much time to search. Walgreens said we have 20s so i said yes. Luckily my friend dropped off 4 23s to hold me over til the pins get here. O and a friend that jabs his friend with an 18 is a friend who cares... and enjoys a good laugh
