Test Prop, Painful, Red, Swollen, Ouch.

I thought I'd end my cycle with Test Prop shots with the idea that because the half life of the ester is shorter, I could clear the drug from my system faster than if I ended the cycle with Enanthate.

It was homebrewed, and I think I may have used too much powder. I used a scale that wasn't designed for fractions of a gram, and it was probably too concentrated. I did use Benzyl Alcohol, Benzyl Benzoate and Grapeseed Oil. First three shots into my quads hurt pretty bad but the last one is killing me. I went between the left outside and top of my left quad, up a bit higher than midpoint of the distance between my hip and knee.

It's swollen, red, warm... All the other shots are better now, but this one is still really bad. I used a .22uf Whatman Syringe Filter, so I doubt that it's not sterile. The grapeseed oil was USP filtered and then I filtered it again and with the BA I'm sure it's sterile.

Just wondering if it's gonna get better or what... It's the second day after I shot this. I had this issue on my left glute a bit ago but not as bad with a shot of Tren Enanthate. It took about a week, but it went away finally. It's as if this shot is swelling the muscle around the site, and it's all red.

Hope it gets better. I'm done using this batch of Prop. Will finish up with Test Enanthate I guess. Never had any issues with that. So painless, I don't even notice it. I guess from what I've read, prop is known to be painful. Accidentally adding too much powder was probably a big mistake. I'd dilute it with some more oil, but I ran out of filters. Also if I added more oil, I would assume I'd need a % of BA and BB to be added as well. I'm just kinda done with this batch. It's dirt cheap, and I'd rather just start from scratch. Going to the hospital when this gets worse is not going to be cheap. .

Any ideas?

How much BA did you use?

How much BA did you use?

I think it was 0.4ml BA, 6ml BB, 21ml Oil, 3g Powder. It made 30ml, 100mg/ml. Even now the solution looks like clear golden oil. No particulates. I know what you're thinking; crashed gear. I don't know. Might have been more than 3g powder. Will use the correct scale next time.

Do not add more grape seed oil! Add ethyl oleate, it will make all the difference in the world. Test Prop is notorious because of what happens in the muscle, that is it take a lot of cosolvents to keep it in solution so once inside the muscle as the BA is quickly absorbed and the BB follows the testp starts to crash within the muscle leading to microcrystals of test in the muscle and much pain. It seem different people react differently I would assume because of their rate of absorption ( I am like you it kills me) anyway by adding the Ethyl Oleate you are able to keep the testprop suspended in the muscle until its fully absorbed. For me it was a night and day deal I went from crippling pain to mild discomfort when I switched.

There is a lot of different grades of ethyl oleate and some of them are not very good and will cause problems, check you PMs for info on good EO.
