Scary shit: friend tried to inject for his first time:

[Little Rage]

Well my friend decided he wanted to run a cycle for the first time, but is a little scared of needles. So i decided to sit at his place and help him with it. He got the needle into his leg, and aspirated. He looked up said he felt a little dizzy. I told him to take a deep breath and just take it out. He attempted to push in, and then said he didn't feel good. So i told him to pull it out quick. the second he got it out, he laid back on the bed, and began to convulse, while his eyes rolled back into his head: this lasted about 10 seconds. He then sat up and asked what happened, he had no clue what just went on. This scared the shit out of me.

I know i personally almost passed out when i was doing my first bi injection but has anyone experienced anything this extreme?

I'm preping for my first cycle, and that story is not helping me. Has he ever had convulsions before?

Is your friend an epileptic? He may be embarrassed to admit it... Intense stress can cause seizures, he might have been VERY nervous...

 

[Little Rage]

yea he said this happened to him before when he gave blood and i believe one other time. He was sweating, and shaking a good bit, so i could tell he was nervous as hell.

Well, at least he was smart enough to have someone there for the first time. Did he tell you all this beforehand or just let you find out afterwards?

Stress and hormonal changes can all make seizures more likely. Estrogen fluctuations in women can change seizure patterns and you friend is about to start fluctuationg all kinds of hormones. He may want to think about this a little longer if is he an epileptic...

If you can't do it, then don't do it. Simple as that.

He may be just one of those people that litteraly faints at the site of blood and needles. I've known people like that. Also I find shots in the Quads to be fairly painful for me and the injection site stays red and irritated for a few days afterwards. That's why I like to inject into the glutes. It is painless there.

He may get over it with a little experience though.

unfortunately he told me afterwards... i was like %$Q$*%Q@#!!!

so I had to help him out, and he had no problem then.

It actually sounds like a pseudoseizure, with usual post-ictal stuff not being mentioned, but no way to tell without an eeg. Plus could have been a real seizure if highly reactive to a solvent. . . either way, maybe he should stick to orals . . .
