Hey all, finished up my first cycle a little while back, ran test400 and dbol. I was injecting 1ml of test a week and and taking 10mg of dbol twice a day. Had some great results and managed to maintain my gains with proper dieting and arimidex. I've got a few questions that I haven't been able to find answers for by looking through other threads and doing my own research, some of them I found answers to but with no consistency. probably going to get flamed for something I post here but I really don't care as long as I get some answers I'm looking for. I'm 24 and been training seriously for about 4 years now by the way.
My questions all relate to one issue I had on my cycle; injections.
Almost every time I was injected it didn't go smoothly. My friend and I injected eachother and we both watched and read a lot on safe injecting and we started with injecting into the glute. His went fine the entire cycle but mine would always have a large bump the following day. at first I freaked out and feared infection but it never got itchy, red, or hot. after a week it always went away but the same issue kept happening every week.
We tried rotating and different injection sites, different sized neeldes, different amounts of test, we evens traded test just to make sure mine wasn't expired (stupid, I know)
First question would be did all that test go to waste? If it sits under your skin does your body dispose of it as if it were an infection or does it still have its regular effects. I ask this because if it was wasted that would mean my results were from strictly dbol.
Second question would be is there ANY cycle or even just one steroid I can run without injections that isn't going to completely destroy my liver or give me the same results as upping my dosage of Flinstones vitamins. Honestly something that only me some decent results would be enough for me. I'm aware test is the foundation for most cycles and it's hard to get big gains without it and most people who only want to take tablets are usually just afraid of needles for some reason but I truly believe my body just doesn't handle injections well. I was going to try and get a different brand of gear but honestly I don't want to spend all that money again just to have the same issue. I'm also in a rural area so getting gear to my location is a hassle and the main problem is that my job does not allow me to go to a civillian doctor, I have to go to my work doctor and I can lose my job if I get an infection and then see him and test positive for steroids.
Thanks in advance for any answers and advice.
