My right leg will not allow injections anymore??? Anyone else have this prob???

[--->>405<<---]

hey fellas! here lately every time i try to inject into my right leg i start pushing down on the plunger and about 1/4 (or less) thru the shot i feel a strong build-up of pressure inside my leg.. its so bad i instinctively pull the needle out due to the sharp acute pain.. i guess it started when i was on the cruise ship and injected and the pressure built up and when i pulled out the needle a lot of blood came out with it.. ever since then (around may1) with the exception of 1 time i have not been able to successfully inject into my right quad..

i use 5/8" 25g needle.. left leg no prob.. WTF?? thinking about starting sub q.. is it true i should only inject 40mg sub q at a time? (i think i heard this in an interview with Dr. Crisler..) if thats the case and im on 160mg per week then i would have to do sub q 4 x per week at 40mg per shot?

also are there any other sub q inject sites other than the stomach?

thx guys

I've not had that problem, but I can honestly say I never relished plunging the pin into my quads. Sometimes there was pain...I just didn't know from time to time if there would be. SQ seems easier to me. Most guys have a bit of belly fat, so that is the easiest place to SQ. But I think anywhere you can pinch up some skin is OK.

Whats wrong with delts/glutes? Your hair still looks like crap btw.

No infection?

I'd give the area a break at minimum. But I would see if you can figure out what is going on, or maybe you are pinning too closely to the last time you pinned there. I feel pretty proud of myself when it goes in clean and I don't have a drop of blood come out. But sometimes It feels weird and I hit some stuff and i'm shaky and blah blah lots of blood, but never had it result in what you are experiencing. I alternate right left, then go to glutes same thing, then back to quads, 2 injects per week.

I would put another vote on the giving the area a break idea.

Do you do glutes? That's probably the easiest place to inject with the exception of having to reach back there.

Also, some people do an upper and a lower quad area.

Glutes for me are great so far... no blood, no pain, get a good stretch lol. But I feel the need to give them a rest for my own peace of mind than anything else.

i do glutes SQ and no problem whatsoever, but when i do legs even if its SQ i get sore! legs are just sensitive, too may veins and nerves!

you might have better success with a longer needle?

5/8" seems short

I wish glutes weren't so hard to reach. The problem is seeing if there's anything when I aspirate , maybe I will just start sticking them and going. cause then I don't have to look. Can't get my wife to do my injection, haha you are lucky.

you don't have to hit your glute dead center, mate!

off to the side works great, and you don't have to be built like a corkscrew to make it happen!

When I do glutes it's almost a "hip" shot. Easy to see.

especially if you're doing SQ! pretty much anywhere you can feel fat.

Yes to all advice you have recieved,

Rotate conventional (delts glutes thighs) sites this problem will only get worse over time.

Do not use a needle that short you are barely in the muscle. I have virtually zero fat on my legs and use a 25 by 1 needle and insert at least 3/4 inch.
