PIP Questions

**SuperNova93** · 03-11-2016, 11:29 AM

Hey all!

13 days into my first cycle! I have a PIP question. I chose to pin in my upper quads. Figured it was the easiest to access. Now pinning into my right leg is great. A little pip the next day, but easy to manage, nothing that bothers me at all. Pinning in my left leg however, I always get severe pip. My last pin was Wednesday evening, and today it's still incredibly sore. I have a little kiddy gate at the kitchen entrance so my daughter doesn't crawl in, and lifting my left leg over it is a nightmare lol.
Every wednesday I pin in the left leg, and last wednesday was bad, but nothing compared to this wednesday. I hit a nerve on the way in. My quad started spontaneously contracting. I carried on as usual, but yeah, it's ridiculous. Thinking about pinning my right quad and maybe right glute.

Question is, why is it just my left leg that gives me issues?? I don't quite understand it myself. Any insight would be greatly appreciated

Pin in ventro glute, its the best place.

Do you use 1" or 1.5" for ventro glute?

I usually use 1.5" in me arse but I don't inject ventro glute.

I use a 1.5 in the ventro glute and I go in on a bit of an angle just to make it easy to manipulate the pin.

Maybe my issue is that I'm impatient and I inject in about 20 seconds... lol. Guess I'll have to slow it down. Can fast injection speed really cause severe pain?

yes it absolutely can my friend the gear exits the pin with a lot of force against a very small part of your muscle so it causes some sort of trauma that causes pip usually the next day

That's probably why I've been in excruciating pain since wednesday lol! I'll slow 'er down on sunday! Hopefully that fixes it.
