I've been pinning glutes with 1" needle it's all I have for now. It seems less pain full in the glutes so I've stick withit and am on my second week. My glutes are killing me and I'm thinking that it's not long enough? I do t want this to be a bad injection and have further problems?!? What can you guys give me for info! It's killing me and seems to stay sore for awhile. I'm almost injecting test prop and don't wanna be waisting my gear
