I was reading a post from Lobo posted earlier about test and the newbies. Some people talked about how they were unsure about injection. I know for me it was fear of the unknown at first. But, after my first "stick" I was fine from then on. I'm now into my 3rd cycle. But for those who are new and want to get some info on some of the experiences on injecting, I figured this would be a good informative post. As for myself, I almost never had a bad experience with stickin' except one time. I was goin' for the stick into the quad and for some reason I got nervous and started to shake. I made the stick, but just about passed out before I was finished. I don't know why that happened but after the shot I had to lay on the floor for a few, sweatin like a bastard. Other than that one time I have had no problem. It just comes down to getting your nerve and getting past the first stick. ------------------ IP: Logged |

WOW FE3 that's never happened to me!!! Watch out bro. Let me as you guys this, when you insert the needle do you go fast or slow, i normally jam the thing in, but at the doc's they're pretty slow at pushing it in. Just wondering what you guys do. E2 IP: Logged |

When injecting, I go moderate in speed... not too slow nor too fast. If I hit a nerve I want to be sure I've got complete control to quickly stop the situation by pulling back with out breakin the needle do to pain and nervous reaction. That's the way for me anyway. ------------------ IP: Logged |

the most important thing to remember about injecting, whether it's your 1st cycle or 101st is that it is a very dangerous practice. Why do you think not even LPN nurses are aloud to give injections? because it's dangerous and it requires intensive training and a number of required hours of practice. Never get comfortable injecting. I take the same precautions now that I did that first time. Making sure to shower first, alcohol the injection site, I never inject with the same needle that I draw from and I'm careful to pull the plunger back to check for blood BEFORE injecting. To a lot of hardasses taking precautions like this sounds stupid but it COULD save your life (you can die from a steroid injection into a vein).... BUMP BUMP! IP: Logged |

My worst experience was an injection in our barn with equipoise. We used it on our draft horses and my father kept all the pins in the house, I was afraid he'd catch me having my own, so I used his. They were 14 guage....sum bitches looked like linclon logs, although we called them the garden hose. Believe me.....they hurt like a MOFO!!!! Of course when your 17, and don't know shit(there was no internet then), you do what you can!!! Ranger IP: Logged |

I inject pretty slow. I've never pulled back on the plunger to see if I hit a vein, but I've only stuck myself in the ass. How do you do it in your quad? IP: Logged |

The worst experience for me was my first cycle. I injected my thigh and received a soft tissue infection for my labors. The doc told me that I might have had a piece of cotton ball stuck on the edge of the needle. Now I use alcohol pads. I was told that you're not a bodybuilder until you get a soft tissue infection. That was from my doc!! stay big IP: Logged |

I inject in the glutes - I go slowly but sometimes can't pull back...the only mistake I have made is too inject too fast, which stings like shit and I had a lump once from that. 2Thick posts on this board all the time, and at the end of his post, has a website on injecting - I checked it out - very detailed and very informative, even for those who have been doing this for a while.
