Infection damn it!

I have my first confirmed infection today. I large knot grew in my delt where I injected which seems to be normal but never was staying a little longer than usual. So I decided to press on the lump where I felt a pop. I knew right then . So I of course went to the mirror and saw the released fluid move under my skin as I pushed on where the lump was so I got a syringe poked a hole with a sterile needle after wiping the area and my hands clean with alcohol and sure enough puss came out. I started on atibiotics right away. I also then squeezed my swollen muscle and felt yet another pop. I thought it was always just painful because it was stealth gear. Anyway just thought I'd share my little story and the reason I believe that you should have an antibiotic on hand just as you would a an AI while cycling. jmo!

This happened to me last week and I was so pissed off because it pretty much took me out of the gym for the first week and a half of my cycle. I'm still in pain but tomorrow I'm going to man up and go in and work upperbody anyway. I had it on my glute muscle.

I hope you feel better bro and it heals up quickly. Within a few weeks we will be laughing about this and talking about all the great gains we are making :)

i think the oral antibiotics are a great idea but i would go see a doc asap brotha
it could get worse

listen to this please
i got a hang nail
it got infected
i put neosporin on it and a bandaid
it caused some little pain
2 days later it still hurt but was healed over so i lance it
a little pus
neosporin and bandaid again
2 days later a girl that i worked with grabbed my arm when i told her a joke
i fell to my knees and couldnt speak, silent tears rolling down my face
the pain was so intense i couldnt breath to tell her to let go
she thought i was playing untill she saw the tears
she let go and i laid on the floor
an emt that was on staff found a lump just above my elbow and told me to get to a doc he thought it was an infected lymph node
he was right
4 months of antibiotic treatment
possibility of surgery if it didnt get better
alergic reaction developed to keflex

i now have an enlarged lymphnode on my left arm that will forever prevent me from having a perfect muscular arm or symetry

a fuckin hangnail!!!!!

go to the doc
do it as a favour to me
tell him you got a puncture wound from a piece of wire on a board or something... anything
just go
 
As aceman states i would seek professional medical attention so as to ensure all has been removed or can cause problems for years to come.

I am aware of the laws in the USA but confident that patien confidentiality still exists and would not risk health by not going.

With regards cause is this a new product or do you think there was a failing in technique?

Wrongun!
 
i had an infection in the glute. they gave me cepulaxen and showed me a new york times article about a guy who killed himself and took roids. i laughed and took the meds and it went away. i would not self medicate though with that. if you have a staff infection it could fuck you up

by that rationale, you think everyone with a hangnail or a scrape should go to a doctor

I personally believe I did something wrong with the transfer from the sachet to the vial. I believe it was my fault so I am not throwing away any other sachets. I take responsability for probably getting sloppy. I threw away that vial and will start another.

Thanks my doc is well aware of my usage! She takes good care of me!
 
Your antibiotics won't do shit. That puss you were talking about actually blocks the antibiotic from penetrating the infection. You need to get an injectable antibiotic to kick start the Amoxycillin first. All you're doing now is teaching the infection to be more resistant to antibiotics so it will take even longer to heal-or you may require a more potent antibiotic like Cipro(used for treating Anthrax). Go to ther Dr before it turns into Staph.

ahhh no
my rational is that if something so simple can go so bad
2 deep pus pockets like that could go very wrong very quick

curious as to what your advice is

Point taken. If you are geigh and have no immune system go to the hospital when you get a hangnail! LOL! j/k

Thats not to mention the puss pocket on my ass from the same vial. That one I think I need to get drained. Could not squeeze that one hard enough and I am out of 1.5" needles besides an 18 gauge and thats not going anywhere near me although that probably would make for a better drain! However since last night when I started the anti biotics that one finally is getting smaller.

Whats wierd about the whole thing is that it never got hot or itchy or I never felt mallaise or feverish just did not seem right to me so I poked and prodded. I think I have had them before but did not realize. Anyway I trashed that vial and will give it one day and see if there is any improvement otherwise I am going to the docs

CO B-Man. How long was it from the time you took the shot and the time you did the "poking & proding". Just curious.

My delt about 4 days. Something looked odder than the usual swelling. My glute is about a week old and there is a little know there seems like it is going away a little

Could be the gear, could be the way I transferred it to the vial. I am not sure but none-the-less its painful whether it gets infected or not so I am pretty much done with it whether it were me or not.
 
Just go to the fucking Dr already. My friend dilly-dallyed like you, got staph, lost 40 lbs and incurred about $20K in med expenses. I kept telling him to go. Finally he went after it was too late. And just because you're not feeling any symptoms(fever, etc) doesn't mean you're not gonna be in a world of hurt very soon. There is no distinct pattern for these kinds of things. Crossing the line into a serious situation requiring immediate medical treatment(to save your life/limbs) can happen in an instant and without prior symptoms.

Thanks BigC actually I was going to Dilly Dailly but your previous post weighed on my mind and I decided not to screw around. I have an 8:30 a.m. Doctors appointment tomorrow morning for it, since my docs temp replacement (shes on maternity leave) leaves at noon. Now, I could sure use excuses as to why I believe I have a staph infection. I am thinking I rolled onto a needle someone left on the floor and it became swollen. I dont want to tell everyone in the world the real reason!

Tell her you do IM B-12. Harmless and lot's of people do it. Tell her you were out of syringes and were reusing them. Be really sheepish and apologetic...

ok i see what works
nextime instead of a personal tale of anguish and a heartfelt plea
ill just say
dont Dilly Dailly
jerk :p
 
I told them I had no idea what caused mine. The Dr. actually told me a lot of athletes like wrestlers and football players are getting them these days. It could be from an ingrown hair or let's say you shaved your leg and then used some sweaty exercise bench at the gym. Either way they didn't ask or prod too much as to what caused it. They just shot me up with an antibiotic, gave me 40 perc 10 pills and a shit load of bactrim to take home. They told me if it get's any worse to come back and they would drain it, which I did a few days later. Don't worry about what they will ask, this shit happens to everyone from a stay at home mom to homeless guys. It's not just gear heads like us. Good luck with your visit and if you have insurance and it gets worse tonight, head to the er. That's what I did. I think they ask less questions there anyway.
 
what i would do is tell them you either tried b-12 for the first time and had no clue and think you might have not been sterile(play dumb and sorry as mentioned above)
however the good thing about the delt is it could get poked by a rusty piece of metal easily as opposed to your glute. you will be fine. yes my spelling on cephulexan or whatever was wrong but its a great antibiotic

Yeah the B12 idea is gonna work the best because I like I said I have a little lump in my glute to which came from the same vial that way if I have to go back and have that one drained for any reason (which it seems to b going away) but I will still have that same reason that I used B12 from the same batch or something. THanks all!
 
BTW how juiced do you look right now? Also a good time to get your BP checked! If you look juiced and BP is high she may want to do bloodwork...if so let her! Just don't answer directly if she asks you about gear. I have posted elsewhere that it is not a big deal if she knows but you don't want to bring it up in a situation like this! The best way to have her know is to tell her you want to do it and ask her medical advice and how it will affect your medical record. Best of luck.
 
Also remember that Dr's are SO used to people being less than honest with them! ("I caught it off the toilet seat, I have no idea how I got rectal fissures, I can't imagine how I got this deviated septum, What do you mean there is a candle lodged in my cervix?" etc.)
 
My normal doc knows I am juicing she is on maternity leave right now there is a replacement doc that I have to see. My doc swore she would not put it on any of my records and was very thankful that I was honest with her. She did bloodwork last month and it came back really good. I am also on High Blood pressure medicine. Twice before juice I read high it runs in my family. Its the cheapest medicine on the lanet $2.33 for a month and makes me feel like a king. I just need to chill until my real doc gets back December 1st.

Very well....yeah I take Accupril for BP. Not too high but I used to have very bad "lifestyle issues" that caused it to be high.....I amended those 8 years ago and stopped the meds....but when I went back on gear this year after a 13 year layoff I decided to go back on low dose BP meds.

I did the same thing initially-I said my abcess was the result of a cactus needle(I live in the desert). The Dr looked at me with bullshit goggles on so I came clean. He was cool about it and assured me Dr/patient confidentiality.

If your privacy is that important, you might wanna consider going to an urgent care center on the other side of town (where you don't know people)and paying cash. This way it won't be on your health record. If for some reason down the line you develop some terminal illness, and your AS use is documented, your insurance may refuse to cover it due to your past AS use.

Keep this kinda thing in mind every time you use your discount card at the grocery store. It documents all of your purchases. Who's to say that in the future that insurance companies won't pull this info on you someday and decide not to give you coverage because you bought too much tobacco, alcohol, and fatty/sugary foods in the past?

Question your leaders. Blind acceptance can be hazardous.
 
good thread. my 0.02 leave the stealth in the syringe, 2cc in each one, use syringe twice (changing needle of course) I don't know about this transfer to the vial stuff. Not saying it can't be done safely, just more risks that way. I also bathe the sachet in alcohol before drawing from it. three weeks on stealth sus and loving it.

Good points.

Hell, even my discount card at the grocery store is in a fake name. I changed all my shit when I heard Food Lion used a guys alcohol purchases against him in a slip and fall case.

I never have and NEVER will use one of those "Valued Customer" cards at the grocer. Also if you use automated toll devices it records where you were at a given time!

Interesting theory but then they would have to prove that all the tobacco and alcohol you bought was used by you.

Also at the grocery store you dont need to give any info whatsoever to get the card. You just tell them you dont want to give them any personal info and they will give you a generic card.

I don't think they need to prove shit-the laws of probability will always weigh in the favor of insurance cos. when figuring quotes. So even if you're buying booze/smokes/junk food for your fat ass, chainsmoking, raging alcoholic stepfather over the years, they will still assume the goods were for you. It could also be used as a cross reference that they don't even tell you about.

Also, just because people like you and I don't fill out the info for grocery store cards, there are plenty of sheep that will. After stores have enough in compliance they may make it mandatory that all info on those things are filled out and verified w/ photo ID by everyone. Next thing ya know we're gonna have to get a 411 chip implant or the number 666 tatooed on our foreheads to be able to buy or sell anything.

Imagine what the future would be like if everybody had data implants that contained all personal 411 on one giant data base. Who's to say the government won't be able to track you and terminate your existence at will 24/7 by some sort of satellite "death ray" with just the push of a button.

I know this sounds X-file-ish-but it's not that out of the question.
 
I had a sterile abcess from injecting too much , too often in the same spot (delts) I felt no discomfort but was able to draw about 6-8ml of puss from my delts. I avoided injecting into that spot for a couple weeks and it has cleard on its own. I tested the spot recently to see if I could get anything out of it and I could not.so my theory is if you drain it it will heal on its own.you just got to take the majority of the crap out first.

Those were my friends exact words 2 days before he fainted in the gym and ended up in the ER. $20K in Dr bills later I think he'd go to the Dr just to be safe.
 
are you at risk by doing 3 CC glute/ham injections frequently? I've been hearing allot about sterile abcesses lately. Already been to ER for skin infection from bad gear so was just curiuos.

Reasonable dout bro at a jury trial is all it takes. Anyway I went to the docs, told her the deal blah blah she seemed worried only because weightlifters in a gym and for some reason geigh people have a higher probability of having MRSA, or methicillin resistent staph aureus. It lives in our or I should say some peoples skin and you can sometimes get it no matter how careful you are. Anyway if you get that and dont treat it soon she basically said Your screwed!! So she gave me some stuff to fight that kind of strain (even though she said there was no reason to believe that my skin carried it) right away so as not to take a chance called Clindamycin 300mg every 6 hours for ten days. As with any antibiotic you must take it no matter if it goes away or not because again you might risk creating a superbug that is resistant to anti-b's and once again putting you back into the screwed category. Lots of great advice and the bottom line is exactly what most said DONT screw around and take care of it imediately. Mine personally never itched turned red nothing. It just swole up very large and I popped it and drained it. I have pictures that will show bruising which is from me squeezing it that I will post so that newbies or oldies that have never directly had it or seen it themselves may recognize it more easily but the best way is common sense. If something seems not right as it normally is then it probably is not. Anyway! thats the deal! Id give all a million k if I could but I cant so I wont!

Stay safe, lift right, eat right and have lots of sex.

and correct me if im wrong but that puts you doubly at risk right? :p :p
 
i'm considering ordering some antibiotics just to have "in case". Last time my skin infection was cleared up with Levaquin 500mg/ED for 5 days. I hear allot of peeps on here talking about Cephalexin (not sure how to spell it) and was curious to know what you guys suggest.

Research what kinds to get though. Amoxycillin and regular old every day anti biotics will not really work and if you do have MRSA then it will only make it worse.

I do not know what you should stock up on and I am no doctor BUT I was prescribed Clindamycin. Bruce410 was prescribed cephalexin aka Keflex (Gen Brnd) when he had one.

Walmart bro! I had it in 5 minutes. If I were to wait for the canucks I might be dead before I got it! kidding. I love our brother country too, just not as much as the U.S.!
 
For over 10 yrs now Pet Smart has been my only source of Antibiotics without an RX. Fish meds are the exact same thing as human grade-they are imperfect and broken pills re-tabbed and packaged for pet use-so no FDA approval is needed and they cost about 70% less than RX ones. Amoxycillin, Cephlexin, Pennicillin-all are readily available in the aquarium section of most pet stores. Of course they are labled "not for human use" but then again, so does a bottle of Equipoise. And don't expect your Dr to give you the green light on this. Every year Drs receive $$$ kickbacks from RX cos for pushing their products. Imagine how much $$$ the RX industry would lose if everybody bought pet meds instead of human grade? Last time I checked 1 500 mg Amoxycillin tab costed about $2.00 $2.50. The same 500 mg pills cost $4.00 for 8 of them for the fish tabs making them about .50 each. And before anyone accuses me of bullshitting, I'm not. I'm serious.

I know you are telling the truth! I looked into that after Taoiron mentioned it once. I am wondering though how you can be sure it is still 500 mg in a cap is it because it dissipates throughout the water because if I need 500mg it just seems that amount could kill a fish! but I believe you!

My guess is the fish doesn't assimilate all 500 mgs through it's gills as some must get lost in the aquarium filter?

I dunno fersure cuz my 37 lb female pit had a lesion on her nose and the Dr prescribed her 500 mgs of cephalexin 3x/day-which is the same dose a 200lb human would use to fight infection.

Obviously exessive amounts of anti b's aren't that toxic in animals-or certain ones anyway?

And FYI-I 1st heard of using pet meds from a guy that was in Desert Storm. Apparently the army was having a tough time getting human grade anti-b's so they ordered anti-b fish meds for the troops cuz they were easier/cheaper to get.

Could be the gear, could be the way I transferred it to the vial. I am not sure but none-the-less its painful whether it gets infected or not so I am pretty much done with it whether it were me or not.

Stealth is painless to me and I have also done a lot of injects using it with no infections or abcesses so far. Does all gear hurt you or is stealth the only one? just asking because I'm no steroid guru but I consider stealth to be pretty much painless.
 
I'm a puss with larger needles. If I wanted to probe a potential abcess and see if I could draw puss, what would be the minimum needle needed to actually draw up puss?

Stealths Test Cyp was not that painful but way more than pharmacy grade. Stealths super test hurt like a mofo. But this thread is not about stealth I am hoping it helps those who may think or have learned that they do or do not have an abscess and my experiences with a confirmed Infection. If you read earlier I took responsability for this one but regardless it has always been more painful than other gear for me. It worked though!

Most vet techs I know bogart all their anti-b meds from their work. This can save you an assload especially if you don't have health insurance.
 
Thats great for if you get the flu or tnsilitus or some other type of viral infection. And great advice for that to if you ask me but for a staph infection better to find out not just what will fight a staph infection but one that will fight the (staph aureus) bacteria that can live in our skin. If you take the wrong stuff and think you are safe you could run the risk as Big C mentioned earlier and was reaffirmed by my doctor of creating a super bug that is resistant to anti-biotics. At which time, from the mouth of my doctor, you are screwed!

An antibiotic "kill all" that's stronger than amoxycillin is "Cipro" me thinks. It's the shit they give you when exposed to Anthrax. Since 9/11 that shit is probably $20 a pill. lol
 
^^Bumping because I am getting a lot of questions about this and there is a lot of good info in here from vets. I learned through this experience and hope others will to.^^
