Was the needle too short?????

[kingwilliam]

hello all-

I have been taking 100mg prop EOD for the last 2 weeks....I recently injected into my glute, but I only had a 1" 23g needle.......everything went fine during the injection, but now 3 days later, my ass is swollen and hurts like a mofo. I am just wondering if maybe I didn't go deep enough into the muscle, cause the prop hasn't really been that bad in the quads...

[one8nine]

shoot prop ed
whats your bf%?
23g is fat

[kingwilliam]

BF is about 11-12%

I gotta be honest, I just can't handle ED injections. Everybody I know does Prop EOD, and that is enough for me.....

[KatsMeow]

If your BF% is that low you should be fine, it's common for muscles to be sore and a little swollen if they haven't previously been injected much, Unless it's red, hot to the touch and hard it's not an infection but to answer your question with a 1inch needle and 11-12% BF I'm pretty positive you made it into the muscle.

Virgin muscle...

You should have gotten Test E or C if you cant are scared of needles/ cant handle ED injections...

Short Esters= shot ED!

You are rotating glutes, delts, quads right?

injection sites?

i know a lot of people that dropped out of school, or smoke week, or ended up in jail
knowing a lot of people that do it doesnt make it a good idea

[WARMachine]

I dont follow 189...

what are you sayin(sorry, im so hungry my brain doesnt function as optimum levels)

[kingwilliam]

What I'm saying is I have several friends who use prop EOD and their results are fantastic..... I am merely jumpstarting a cyp cycle and for that reason I chose prop.... and EOD injections are about as far as I'm going with it...

I dont think I missed the muscle, I'm just thinking maybe I didn't go quite deep enough. This is only the second time I have injected in the glute... I did once before on my first cycle and the exact same thing happened. I think next time I will be using at least an inch and a half pin.............

people do it does not = good idea

[Flex-Appeal]

lol it dosen't phase me i shoot 23g 1.5 inch in glutes 1 inch in quads. I only have 7% bf too

[Flex-Appeal]

you have somewhat virgin muscle to injection too, a factor to consider

[mediumpimpin]

The test prop I had hurt like hell, I would have a knot for 4 days after each injection. I had to stop after 4 weeks because I was to Knotted up to work out half the time lol

not good, heh shoot enth instead, i love it

[CeeLo]

same thing happened to me on both sides and I used a 1 inch needle.
No problem in the thigh. I picked up some 1.5s and will use those on
My next glute injection.

Let me know how it works out........ I plan on getting some 1.5's also.. It is 4 days later and my ass is still hurting.. Swollen....

[Epic1]

ugl gear or pharm grade? i only get swollen and infections with home brew stuff. Never had any problem with pharm grade.

[CeeLo]

mine is ugl. But no problems in thigh, just sore as heck from day 2 to
Day 7 or so. It sore and a little hardness from second day and for almost a week
Later. My next flute injection is tomorrow morning with a 1.5".

I am a virgin user as well. There is no sust pharm grade is it?

[kingwilliam]

Mine is UGL as well......in the quads there is only a mild soreness, very manageable. My glute feels like someone hit me in the ass cheek with a f*cking nailgun

yes there is

[CeeLo]

1.5 went in like butter, I was worried about the length, but no soreness. Will find out tomorrow for sure.

[kingwilliam]

cool........keep us posted because my rotation calls for the Glute on Thursday........

[jstraw428]

I highly doubt it was from the size of the needle, but switch to 25g, they are smooth like butter......also, if you can handle ed injections, then you should have jumpstarted with something like dbol......why do something half ass( eod injections with prop)......

[CeeLo]

I pretty much bet my stash on the size of the needle. 1" does not get deep enough into the muscle. I believe the shorter needle allows the prop or oil to seep back up and harden just under the skin. It must have something to do with prop as well cause I shot deva with a 1" and no soreness.

[jstraw428]

Unless you are really fat, a 1' needle will hit the muscle in the butt/hip region....just think about it, if you cannot hit your muscle with the 1' needle, that means he has over an inch of fat/skin in this area.....if this were true, he would be a lot higher than the stated bodyfat.....

[CeeLo]

I am 5'11" 200.4 lbs and I would put myself in the 12-13 % bf range. I actually had it taken a couple months ago and it was at 12%.

I'm telling you that it is the combination of prop in the sust and the 1" needle. You can say what you want, but I will never stick a 1" in my glute again.

Why does BIG and everyone else say they use 1" everywhere EXCEPT the glute. We are not ALL fat!

[VWbug66]

1" in the glute is fine for me..i'm at the 12-13% body fat area

[CeeLo]

2nd day after and I feel NOTHING. I'm beginning to wonder if I took the shot! LOL! I know I took it, I couldn't wait to try out the new 1.5" and It feels great.

Happy shooting boys!
