    You can't pick up more then one at a time? You could probably buy a 10ML for about that much without insurance. Have you asked the doc to make your script for 10ML?

    I feel guilty guys. My clinic not only sends my 10ml scripts complete and on time, but they sent me 2 free bottles on my last order. Guess I must have customer loyalty points with them.

    Walgreens Pharmacy is becoming more and more of a problem to deal with as they continue to Grow and push more of the smaller Pharms Out.

    Checking into Costco and Sam's?

    ya,last blood work fell to 300 so doc uped to 600..put me back in range for now..I wonder how much leaks out when you pull the pin out.it seems to me that i lose alot at that dose.May be i will split to two doses and see if it makes a difference.Sometimes it will run half way down my leg no matter how slow i inject

    glad you had no problems jpk - I'm going to give it a shot late next week or early the following... any more PITA issues, and I'll try another pharmacy and then perhaps vette's shop.

    You need to try the skin stretch method. I forget what it's called. Something like the Z technique or whatever where you pull the skin when you inject and then after you remove the needle you let the skin fall back in place and it acts as a natural barrier to prevent any leakage.

    600mg/week is crazy and I can't imagine any Dr. prescribing that.

    Ditto on the skin stretch. it makes it easier to insert the needle too. Just curious but what size needle are you using? Are you going deep enough? Do you apply pressure and gently massage the pinning area just after injection? I also keep a band-aid pealed and ready to go so I can quickly place it over the injection site. That's when I apply pressure and massage too. I rarely loose more than a drop or two at most.

    I don't use the z technique thing, but I also don't ever lose any test. I think it's because I inject deep (1.5" into quad) and slow, and I use a dry towelette for pressure immediately after so the blood clots instead of using the alcohol swab which actually prevents clotting. This seems to really close things off and prevent any leakage aside from a very small speck of blood.

    I use a family doctor. My script is for 200MG EW. He writes my script for a 10ML bottle so I don't have to mess wilh 1ML amps. I usually fill it evey month just so I have extra or lose my insurance. My insurance allows me to fill my script monthly so sometimes I do. My doc is not a dealer by all means.

    damn I wish that was me! My Test E only comes in 5ml bottles (at 200mg/ml) so it doesn't last me that long at all, and definitely doens't give me much of a chance to stockpile...

    Highmark BSBS, although I'm in limbo with it right now for the next week or so... I thought it was the pharmacy that was responsible for the brand of Test E - that being said, I should try another place and see what I get.

    Cool ... Let us know how it turns out. For me, I'm stocked good on test for awhile, but need to get mo HCG and insulin pins.

    Not looking good guys....

    As you know, my pharmacy wouldn't fill my 10ML script so I went to Costco a month ago and got it filled. Its been a month so I went back to costco. At first they brought out my bottle, but when they saw I was using insurance they said I have to pay cash or refill every 70 days. They then went in the back for 20 minutes and came out and gave me my 10ML and ran my insurance. She said that when they eventually get 1MLs then I'll only get 4 a month or a 10ML every 70 days. I said so until then I get 10ML a month and she said yes.
    If this sh*t keeps up, I'm gonna just use my AA clinic.

    not good Thor - however I've been thinking! (I hate it when my wife comes up with that line hehe) - one thing that I've never heard is Test E in 1ml amps (I'm guessing they make it - do they?)? I have heard other say they had/have Test C in 1ml's. I'm on Test E which normally comes (for me - Watson brand) in 5ml bottles (200 mg/ml), so if the smallest they have is 5ml, then it would be possible still to get a little extra, and not get the exact dosage in 1ml amps? hmmmmm... So, maybe switch to Test E if they don't have 1ml amps?

    I just searched their site and they carry 1ML amps so I assume that is what you would get.

    I use Watson too and they have 1, 5 and 10ML bottles. My old pharmacy said they would give me a 5ML as a compromise, but I sure like the 10ML a hell of a lot more.
