No.
PIP once in a while. That's about the worst I've ever suffered from what must be 1000s of injects.
Oh, and feeling drunk for 60sec has happened to me a couple of times.
I've been infected before, but I'm pretty sure it was from not cleaning the top of the vial before drawing. This was in my younger days, I haven't had any issues in years
The only thing I've had aside from pip was a small haematoma, which cleared up within 24 hours. As long as your being sterile with how you prepare and administer. Everything should be OK.
I've had paralyzing post injection pain from UGL gear (almost always test). I'll say it again.....paralyzing....Now I'm on TRT with pharm grade test and once in a blue moon I'll get significant pain but nothing like the PIP from UGL. I ended up cutting the UGL injects with sterile oil and that alleviated the pain. Most importantly is do not rub the injection site afterwards, can hold a tissue on it to stop bleeding/etc but do no rub/massage. That can move the oil into the subcataneous tissue which has more nerve endings hence more pain. Not massaging leaves the oil in the muscle which is correct.
You probably don't get pip that much from pharm grade cause it's probably cypionate. I've never had trouble with cyp, even from ugl's. Now test e and prop is a different storyQuote:

One big issue people overlook with prop or any injectable is they do not get deep enough and it gets in your fat causing lumps and pain. I pin 1.5" onlynow.
I had blood squirt out on my wifes new down comforter that wasn't cheap :/
My worst injection was walking around with a 23g needle in me and it was bouncing as I walked. Had a large bruise for weeks

Stay away from high doses gear brewed with tons of BB and such shit.
Good gear should ideally contain just oil, AAS+ester, and maximum 2%BA (0,9% in most HG gear)
And it shouldn't be easy to get that oil through anything less than a 25g.
These are my opinions on the matter and they have served me well.
I've had killer pip from test e before (ugl) and always get it from prop, even at 50 mg per ml (cut mix)Quote:

When you dont go deep enough you will know it. I always get hard areas of fat around the injection site. They are very painful to stick a needle through the next time around and you can feel the pad of hard fat with your fingers.Quote:

What does matter is the concentration of hormone, carrier used, benzyl alcohol content (if high), pinning virgin muscle, and not rotating sites. Those are the typical reasons one would get PIP, among others I'm sure.Quote:

I even cleaned and reused them. Glad I am past that point in my life.Quote:

My right ass cheek is a bit bruised or hardened from injecting 5+ years into the same spot. Obviously that was totally stupid and avoidable.
I never don't ever do glutes either. Delts and tris.Quote:

I'm the same way, I actually have to look to see if it in sometimes, I hated glutes with the 1.5" pin but I have grown quite fond of them after switching to 1"...Quote:
