it's not likely, but definitely possible, that you could be allergic to your juice.
I've got a friend who fell out of the shower yesterday having "mild" convulsions (if there's a such thing as mild convulsions) after his third injection of winny. He was going into anaphylactic shock. Before this, he didn't know he was allergic to anything.
I'm no doctor, fellow muscle-heads, but be forewarned. If you experience excess swelling around your injection site, difficulting in breathing, or an intense "itchy" feeling all over, you maybe experiencing the initial stages of anaphylactic shock. Don't ignore this-- it's not something you want to fuck with.
Perhaps some of the gurus can enlighten us on methods of testing yourself for allergies to new gear.
Be careful, and be big.
