I took an injection of Testoprim-D in my right quad., and for the last two days it is extremely swollen. All the way down to my knee. I can't walk on it, I have to limp everywhere. But, when I say swollen, I mean SWOLLEN! It hurts like shit!!!!!!!!!! Can anyone relate? ~thankz IP: Logged |

I can relate to an infection you might have. I went ice skating last fall, got three small blisters on my foot. No problem, right? I washed them and put band-aids on 'em. Three days later I couldn't walk. I got cellulitis and it crept up to my knee practically. I'm lucky it didn't put me in the hospital. But it put me out of the gym for a week. I'd make getting to a doctor a priority. If you wait, it might only get worse. IP: Logged |

No shit man. Get to the doctor. Your health is important. Don't worry about the doctor busting you for juicin', he can't say anything and if he does, you'll be a very rich man. You don't want to be gimp for life. It could be some serious shit. IP: Logged |

I just finished a cycle and i used alot of Testoprim. The stuff hurts bad. But, i shot it in my glute. After i injected i was sore for about 4 days, I would use a hot compress after every injection and sit in a hot bath. But if it is infected you need to see the DR. IP: Logged |

Here's the thing... If you are questioning the thought to see a doctor, then chances are that is the thing to do. Listen to your body! Your first instinct is usually the right one! Peace bro, Good luck. ------------------ IP: Logged |

It sounds like you have an infection. Is there an abcess or lump at the injection site? Do you have a fever? If so you better seek medical attention. IP: Logged |

My quad is really tight, almost as if there were a huge clump of scar tissue, about the size of a squashed golf ball, an ellipse if you will, at the injection sight. I can still hardly walk on it, but the pain is decreasing somewhat. I am avoiding the doctor at all costs, so any suggestions would be helpful. The reason I am avoiding a doctor is because I am only 16 and am in competitive shotputting right now. I feel that my physician might fuck up the situation more than it already is! IP: Logged |

that testoprim crap is not friggin sterile i am telling you! i know 4 people including myself that have gotten infections from it. never use it again. and if you need to avoid the doctor get the strongest antibiotics you can and take them for 10-14 days it will go away. ------------------ 300lbs or death IP: Logged |

Your first mistake is using gear at 16. Your second mistake is not going to a doctor. IP: Logged |

HardCory is right. All they will do is prescribe an antiobiotic to you. Try using some connections and get some penicillin or amoxycillin. ------------------ the alpha male IP: Logged |

Tiny, I was really hoping to log in and learn that you saw a doctor. If you have an infection - and it sounds like you do - and it gets into your bloodstream, you could be in some serious, serious shit. At that point you're not just looking at antibiotic pills. Consider lying in a hospital bed with an IV tube in your arm. Going to the doctor isn't fun. And if it's a family doctor, I can understand your concern. Finding some strong antibiotics and taking them for two weeks might do the trick, but I'd suggest you find them fast. Better still, see a doctor. Get creative. If you don't want your parents to know, find some doctor across town, dig into your savings or borrow money from some friends. But do something. Doing something is almost always better than doing nothing. And check back and tell us what happened, okay? IP: Logged |

SHOTPUTTING IS A SPORTING EVENT. THE ATHLETE STANDS IN A CIRCLE (ABOUT 8 FEET IN DIAMETER) AND HEAVES AN IRON BALL (12POUNDS FOR HIGH SCHOOLERS AND 16 POUNDS FOR COLLEGIANS/AMATEURS) AS FAR AS HE/SHE CAN WITHOUT LEAVING THE CIRCLE.

The only person the Doc could tell is your parents. Doctor patient confidentially.If its that bad it's only a matter of time before they are asking you about your leg. Parents are keen animals - especially about thier teenage children. I don't know alot about usage but I thought I was a bad thing to use at such a young age. Doesn't it shut down the bodies natural harmone production - so when he comes off hell have problems? Some of you guys that know should address this for him. IP: Logged |

Look, Tiny, since you've posted 30 times on this board, I assume you're not some fly-by-night prick. And assuming you're not in the hospital, why not let people know what the situation is with your probable infection? IP: Logged |

Tiny Tiny Tiny. I hate to tell you buddy but T-Bone and some of the other guys are right. At 16 your dick is putting out plenty of Test. But now you need to focus on the serious infection that you have. I am going to tell you of an alternative at the risk of being flamed by the whole board. If you cannot get to a doctor and please try your ass off to get to one, go to a ranchers supply store that sells ranchers and farmers supplies. Buy a package of Terramycin for about 4 bucks. It is an antibiotic that farmers give cows and swine. Take two teaspoons three times a day for two weeks. Dilute it in a small glass of water and shoot it down. It will taste like shit but it is a very powerful antibiotic. Remember, only do this as a last alternative. The doctor is still your best bet. ------------------ IP: Logged |
