    ...and it came close to happening today.

    Everything has been fine for the last injections but today I aspirated blood so I removed the needle and tried another spot, aspirating blood again (probably from the same nicked vein). I got nervous, flushed the test and decided to do it later. Well, a couple of hours later I went for it again, aspirated, no blood, but I shook a bit as I injected and immediately started imagining that in doing so I may have hit a vein and may be injecting into my bloodstream, imagining myself having a heart attack. My heartrate skyrocketted and after I finally finished and removed the needle, I felt the telltale signs that I was about to pass out. I managed to calm down and prevent it from happening but it came too close for comfort today.

    I am convinced this is hormonal anxiety but whatever the cause, I can't risk fainting on my bathroom floor. I've decided to switch to a longer ester for less frequent pinning. Plus, I am no longer comfortable injecting anywhere other than my glutes and doing so EOD switching between only 2 injections sites is not a good idea from what I've read.

    less pinning, less pip.

    and lay down on your bed when you pin..
    I'm buying test e. I just don't know how soon I'll receive it. I want to do some research into it too to see if I can get away with once per week pinning. I know austinite recommends 250mg 2x per week of test e for a beginner cycle.

    How do you do glutes lying down? I look in the mirror in the bathroom to do it.
    I think pinning in bed would be a good way to avoid passing out, or at least pass out on a decent surface.
