    Yes. 1ml would be 200mg. 1/2 ml would be 100 mg.

    Are you going to break it up into two shots or just pin once a week?

    Good math, its probably a 10ml bottle with a strength of 200mg per ml...(200mg/ml) so in order to use 100mgs you would only draw 1/2 ml or 1/2 cc

    yea thanks for your service! i do 50mls twice a week and switched to Sub-Q shots because it was hard to measure to 2.5 lines on the 3ml syringe, and its less painful! see my thread on Switching to Sub-Q, there is a good link there posted by GDevine as to how and here if you are interested!

    agreed. and another way of saying it would be that you have 20 doses of 100mg per bottle.

    not sure about standard for insulin , i know they have different insulin needle gauge and length, i believe the longest is 1" i did sub-q last Wednesday evening and still feel it but very light, it feels as if i pinched my self there, i am sure I'll get used it as i do it more and more, that's what happened to me when i started IM injection, i was getting sore for a while but nor anymore!

    It it as bad is IM? I take 100ml a week. can you do 100ml sub-q? I'm just starting and I'm 31 and an IM every week for the rest of my life is a long time. I hope. Lol .the IM don't really bother but that damn inch and half needle going in the muscle every week seems like it might start sucking some where down the road.

    no the soreness is not even close to the IM, its very light but i am guessing i won't get sore anymore, kind of like the IM injection when you fist start TRT! BTW i don't get sore anymore doing IM, but sometimes when i stick the 1.5" needle it hits a nerve or something and it almost kills me! i don't think this will happen with sub-q. i split my does to 50mgs twice a week, this way it doesn't take an eternity to draw the test! drawing is the slow process but shooting goes quick!

    i haven't tried it, probably about 2 minutes! but you will get a huge bubble and will take some time to get it spread around. you have to massage the area after injection. i would split it, 50ml is just too much for insulin syringe.

    50ml !!!!???? that doesn't require a syringe, you're gonna need a caulking gun!!..........That's 10,000mg!! Sheeesh Bass, no wonder you're arms are getting so big, you should reduce your dosage just a tad.

    If you do 100mg a week how would you split it for sub-q?
