Vastus lateralis injection problems

[Megatrone]

How do you guys manage to do vastus lateralis injections? I fail maybe 2/3 of the time. Either I hit a vein or I hit a nerve... After a lot of failing, I finally found a spot on the right thigh and marked it. However, I just cannot do it on my left thigh. After hitting veins several times, the whole area goes numb and disables me from trying any further. Today I actually thought I was successful, but at 1" in, I hit something (nerve probably) and had to pull out. What do you do to succeed? I mean, the injections at the ventrogluteal and dorsogluteal sites are so easy, but the vastus lateralis... The reason I want to do this injection is because I need more sites for rotation.

Thanks!

No, I need to use the large muscles, because I'm injecting 10ml and that's way too much for the smaller muscles...

Hopefully B12 and even anything 1x a week is ridiculous. Just the sort of thing someone would make up to get attention?

That's five days a week. I'm injecting a mixture of neuropeptides.

Why? Are you pre disposed to be Obese? Diabetic? other eating disorders? What are you attempting to overcome or keep from happening?

I'm trying to improve my intelligence by stimulating neurogenesis, through injecting BDNF, GDNF, NGF etc... Don't you have any tips regarding increased accuracy while finding a suitable injection site?

Sure I can think of several locations that would be suitable injection sites for you.

Maybe instead of focusing on enhanced intelligence first you should work on enhanced social skills. Just an observation.

What did I write that make you think I've got poor social skills? Striving for increased intellectual capabilities has become a major part of my life... Don't you ever think about what you could do, if your IQ increased by let's say 20 points? The more intelligent a person is, the more he understands how little it is he really understands, and the more intelligent he wants to be...
