Last friday was my third shot of 500mg sustanon. I have been sore as shit constantly until my next injection. I get so sore that it hinders my workouts. I heat the sus. before injection, I rub the area for like 5 minutes after injection. I take hot baths. Nothing works. And the sore area gets hard until the day of the next injection. I am thinking I might be hitting a little too high and outside on the glute because the soreness goes into my back and even itches. Any experiences or reasons for this. I know sus. hurts, but I seem to be the only one that lets it hurt my workouts. I can't even lay on the bench to do chest presses without assistance!! IP: Logged |

I always mix sostenon or anything with test prop in it with either deca or Eq in the same pin. This dratically reduces the pain. I don't know if you are stacking or not, but I would definitely recommend it. IP: Logged |

There is a few things you can do. The first one is take the shot only on leg days. Make sure you do legs on Saturdays and your shot that night. Also the short acting test in the mixture only last three days. I give my self a shot every three days and make sure one of the shots are on leg day. You can mix it with something but I have not tried it. L8R ------------------ IP: Logged |

one thing that may help you is to break it into two separate injections and use a 25g needle. make sure you are not moving the pin inside the muscle (it would help if someone else would do the injection for you to minimize movement and tissue damage) while 25g is small, if the oil is hand warmed for 10 min (I normally use redijects and just keep the glass in my closed palm for 10 min ) it will go in albeit slowly and I do mean, inject slowly and dont press the syringe with force against the glute. the propionate will still cause some discomfort but it should be gone in a day or two. you may also find that the pain gets to be less and less after time.

What I can't understand is all you guy saying it hurts, you're starting to make me paranoid that i'm the only one that thinks it doesn't hurt, although the needle doesn't hurt either i think I must have a dead ass.... IP: Logged |

Hey bud, a couple of questions for ya. Firstly, I havent't been reading your previous posts so I don't know, but one thing is for sure, if you are heating the sus too much you may very well be irritating the muscle you are injecting into. How long are you heating it? Does it seem too warm upon injection? Secondly, Have you ever shot sus without a problem? There is a chance you may be allergic to the oil used. I would also try a different location. The signs/symptoms you are explaining are classic of a couple of things. #1 the itching could be due to nerve (sciatic) irritation or infection. Make sure the area is clean, your source can be trusted and the shit is real. IP: Logged |

I have only done omna,sust,enathate and deca. Sust and omna hurt lots cause of the prop. It is an inconvenience to use sustanon. I must work my workouts around the injections but it is worth cause sust kicks ass. [This message has been edited by DREXX (edited June 22, 2000).] IP: Logged |

I agree about the sus making the area around the injection sore, I was posting somewhere else and a newbie was doing his first cycle, included was 750mg of sus for the first few weeks. I simply posted that he would be pretty sore with that much prop. and I got flamed. IP: Logged |

I agree with Drexx, you just gotta suck it up man. No sus dont feel all that good, but I never thought it hurt that bad. As far as the hardness in your glute post injections, try injecting much slower, its probably where the oil has not dispersed properly. Then follow the rubbing or go sit on a hot wash cloth in the tub. Its how we play the game bro, but believe me when I say...with sus the pain is nothing once you see the results. later, IP: Logged |

I too am a little allergic to the oils, but some amoxicilin usually clears it up. IP: Logged |

Split the injections, do one on mon and one on thursday. I started shooting my sust in the quad mixed with deca. It was sore but not that bad. I did a 500mg shot the first week and my ass was sore for a week. I thought I had an infection. If you have meaty legs I say shoot in quad. You have alot more control over the needle. quadz IP: Logged |

I have been using sus off and on for 2 years and I have not been able to get around the soreness. I have to sit sideways it hurts so bad. I could sware that my glute that took the shot is 10 degrees hotter than the other too. I deal with the pain because I know it is working.... IP: Logged |

I'm not exactly sure how new you are to taking injections, but if your name is any hint.....Are you sure you are getting all the air out of the needle? Are you sure your source is legit? Itching definately sounds like you may be injecting wrong. If you are not sure where to hit, place the palm of your hand on the side of your glute. Count 4 fingers over and take the hit in the middle. This is the fleshiest part of the glute. E-mail E2, I read once that he helped someone take their first hit by using a web cam. He's a great Mod and will help you. IP: Logged |

I know what these guys are talking about, and there is nothing you can do. It's not from moving the pin around in the glute, not from shooting too fast, not from air bubbles, nothing. I guess it's just an allergic reaction, like the guy above already said. I took sustanon for three weeks, each week being more careful then the one before. I think it's something in the amps that is there to preserve the drug for a longer shelf life. That is what we are allergic too. I'm guessing it's only in certain types of amps because I have taken deca before with no problems. Primo and sustanon, problems. You can't say suck it up either, I'm(we are) talking about not just 2-3 days of pain, 7 days of pain, usually peaking around 5 days. And swollen and hard like you wouldn't believe, my whole side of my glute was hard as a rock and ballooned. Ran out of places to inject, so I had to stop, did the oral only cycle. It sucks.

There's something called "Reparil gel" that I think would help you very much. If its available where you are. Just rub it all over the injection site 15 minutes or so after you inject. Also haemoclar gel or Rimanal gel would do the same trick. IP: Logged |

thick dog is totally correct, always mix sust with a little deca and the soreness will be dramatically reduced if not eleminated. IP: Logged |
