    B12/Test injection

    Okay so the doctor prescribed me B12 at 1cc a week. He said that I could put it in with my test injection. I was wondering though, can I use the same needle to draw with or do I need to switch needles and do two draws? I was thinking maybe do the B12 first then the test if I was able to use the same needle.

    I've drawn both in the same syringe in the past. Test first, then the B12. I'm sure others can chime in...

    Same here draw Test first then B12 in the same syringe with an 18g needle and the switch to a 25g. Just watch how hard you press on the plunger of the syringe when you inject. The B12 is alot thinner then the Test and will go through the 25g needle alot quicker.

    Okay, thanks guys. I just figured do the B12 first so that you don't get any test into the B12 vial?

    Can either of you all tell me what you felt while on B12? How long does the feeling last if there are any?

    I felt nothing obvious, switched to a sublingual B complex and I CAN feel that, energy boost. Too many damn shots so I switched.

    I combine mine. First B12 then T. I don't feel anything but figure that is normal? Is the B12 supposed to have some obvious impact? One thing for sure I am rarely sick.

    Isn't B12 meant to be injected sub Q on a daily basis? Are you guys injecting once a week with your test? What dosage do you use?

    no its IM injection, my clinic said not to mix test with b12 because one is water base and the other is oil base! i felt nothing with b12 either, i think its just a sales pitch!

    I am supposed to take 1cc a week and it's supposed to be IM. I read that it is supposed to help with energy and can also help metabolism. I guess I will see if I can get anything out of it.

    1cc per week will do nothing.

    I use 1000mcg daily while bulking and feel great, massive appetite increase, high feeling of well being and loads if energy.

    Marcus do you take it only when you are bulking? Why do you say once a week will do nothing. The nurse told me they prescribed it to me because my blood work showed that I was low on B12.

    Does anyone here know what the true real dosage should be?

    Same. B12 shots are such a gimmick though.

    I wonder if the acne is B12 related for me to, i'm gonna stop taking it for a couple weeks and see if anything clears up.
