paranoid about missing the muscle

[naz-uk]

i did my first shot monday and im pretty confident it went well, feels a little sore but not too bad, its ok to walk, stairs hurt a little bit, like a bruise feeling.

i just got this nagging thing that i might not of injected into the muscle dont know why just a physchological thing, just to put my mind at ease what would signs be of not injecting into the muscle?

well, if you aspirated then you have nothing to worry about.

Are you talking glutes? they are hard to miss, as long as you got the pin all the way in... IMO, you are fine. that is exactly how I always felt in the glutes. (except the occasional charlie horse I would get from putting all my wieght on it immediately after the injection)

it was in the quad, and yes i did aspirate, is it easy to miss in the leg?

[MasterShake]

the quad is ALL muscle... you should be good to go...

quads? you got np. besides, if you're walking around on it....

ok so if i did miss the muscle would there be alot of pain then? or you would just never know?

[goalseeker]

theres so much muscle there, that I wouldnt worry about missing it.. It would be pretty hard to do so.. Did you shoot at the proper site? even if you were off a little bit, you will still be OK.. Its fine....especially after aspirating...

unless your using an insulin pin you hit the muscle...you dont have an inch of fat on your quad do you?

yeah i did the outer edge bout 3/4 up, more or less inline with the right side of my knee on my right leg.
