Guys, I'm probably gonna have to give myself the pin and don't wanna hit this nerve anyone have any suggestions.I'll probably have to give it to a friend as well. I can really do without this horrible pain I've heard of.

When you inject in your glute do it in the upper outer quadrant. If it's on your right side do the upper right-hand side. On your left do the upper left hand side.

Vega.. I hear ya. The best advice I can give is I searched on the web for all injection web pages. I found a good one (can't remember the URL) meant for heroin junkies (meant for education, not condoning use) to show them where to stick it. They had an intramuscular section. Try searching for "intramuscular injections) and you should find some good pics.. hope this helps!

vega
upper outer is the way to go. dont shoot straight on the midline of your glute. check that site or see if you can find an anatomy chart to see how it runs, it will ease your nerves. no pun intended...lol

Or.... you could just do your thigh.. maybe there is something I missed but, I don't usually use my ass as there is more fat there and I am worried about an abcess developing from not going into the muscle.. but.. I guess if you are using a long enough pin you should be ok... my thigh is lean muscle and less fat, so I am sure it will make a clean deposit there...

Vega! seriously from someone who couldnt wish this pain on his worst enemies(well maybe 1 or 2), the pain is like sticking a
stun gun on your inside hip and fireing away for a night and a day!! The psiatica is easy to unconsciously hit! ive been careful and still done it not once, not twice but three stupid fkng times! and ive been gearing 12 years! now only glutes, and not a single prob. in 4 years!! Hit a nerve once and my leg started kicking, but actually it was kind of funny! When you know your sites, the risks are greatly reduced.

It can lead a little higher and for some a little outside, depending on your skeletal
structure; thats why ive zapped myself too often! High and outside doesnt work for myself.
