First cycle not great, what else did I miss?
Looking for my first "experience" to step in and heal my pending shoulder surgery quickly and effectively. Trying to launch a soft run so I don't screw up my recovery potential by making rookie mistakes. I've been reading up on this for about 3 years, but as you know only experience teaches best.
So my first run was kind of nerve racking.
My bro deposited test400, 200 into each leg, and he dropped the syringe on the porch. Blew it off non-chalante. Then we didn't even sterilize injection site, just rubbed some ice from the freezer on it. Then the ice fell on the porch too, and we reused it. It didn't occur to me how dangerous this was until a few days later when I woke up with a stiff jaw. Read on for details.
Well then injection pain seemed more than my first run. This time I took 200 in each quad, instead of 400 in the upper glute. It really hurt, especially left leg. I know it doesn't feel "good", but the pain in left leg was sharp, not dull like usual.
-Unlike the first time, I was really very nervous for some reason this time.
-I did aspirate, which was my main concern. No such thing as a good oil embolism.
-After reading that intramuscular infection could be the cause of intense injection site pain, I started to worry about dropping that needle and not properly sterilizing. Some infections described as life threatening, great.
-3 days later, right around peak day, I started feeling very weak, nauseous, and shaky. I initially thought this was indication of an infection, but later discovered it was "test flu"...which in 3 years of reading I'd never heard of. Infection dismissed.
-The day after getting test flu and calming down about it, I woke up with a painfully stiff jaw. One quick google and the word tetanus came up, with a stiff jaw being the first symptom. Perhaps one of the most excruciating diseases in the world, I instantly worried about dropping the syringe on the porch, which certainly had soil, which carries the tetanus bacteria, which could have been deeply deposited into both of my legs. I didn't get tetanus, but wikipedia this and see if the real possibility of contracting it as a result of carelessness doesn't rattle you. It might be the worst way to die ever. Even if you survive, you'll never recover from the psychological effects of having gone through it.
-I also learned about the perils of injecting into the lymph system, uncommon as it may be, I would still love to avoid this very dangerous happening.
So the big picture for me right now is
What else do I need to be aware of to do this safely? Because obviously I'm not as prepared as I need to be.
I don't want infections, tetanus, an oil embalism, or any other setbacks that would defeat the purpose. I'm already going to be one-armed while running my business for a while, I don't need anything else difficult to handle. I'm aware that these things are not excessively likely, but even one occurrence would be pretty stressful, if not deadly worst case.
So, some other questions.
-what are the complications of stacking and using pain prescriptions? I plan to do my first heavy cycle during shoulder surgery recovery. I imagine pain prescriptions will be in order
-How do I avoid the lymph system?
-are there esters that do not cause "test flu"?
-What other uncommon sides can come from stacking test, deca, or eq, and how do I manage them?
-is this the best set up or best compounds for tendon and joint repair?
-What else am I just too newb to be prepared for?
Planned cycle:
T.E.500 week, weeks 1-12
D.D. 300 week, weeks 1-12
EQ 300 week, weeks 1-12
aromasin AI EOD
Caber (for libido)
Nolva pct
DAA during PCT
Then shoulder should be better than ever.
Brothers of iron, make it rain with scientific and experience based advice only please.
