2 abscesses in a week? Please help...

[djpurpose]

I'm running 2 injections a week each time with a bottle of Test and Deca see my post here for pics http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?t=458924 . I've been injecting in the glutes so far as I'm a little needle shy, and have soreness, swelling, and heat around the 2 injection areas. I saw the Dr. and they gave me some Keflex (Antibiotics) to take. I'm new to the abs thing but I followed directions and used cotton balls with alcohol and always used a new needle. Any ideas? I never saw any instructions for using the vile type but I've been heating them up in water (thick stuff) scoring the glass with a file, and sucking up all the test before it cools down, repeating for the deca, switching needles (its pretty dull by then) while making sure to keep the cap on, then heading the syringe up in water then injecting it before it cools completely. Any ideas?

When you say 'thick stuff', how thick is this product?

like a light oil, but too thick to suck up without heating it up (maybe its becuse I can't create a vaccum like you can with other bottle types).

This happened to me once and it was because my Gear was dirty. My abscess' never went away and I still have 2 small 'marbles' in my glute that I now have to totally avoid because they are surrounded by blood vessels. I would make sure that gear you have is clean.

 

[djpurpose]

How do you make sure its clean? I only have one source. I hope its not bad.

Cook it.
250 degrees for 3-4 hours.

Not a garentee, but the best your gonna do on your own.

backload that shit, pull the plunger and go

 

[shoestring]

I saw the pics of the gear. I think you need to varify it is real first of all. I, like the other poster noticed that nadralone is spelled wrong. That is not a good sign. Also I am not sure how you can heat the syringe up in water and keep it from getting on the needle (cap or not). Try puting the loaded syringe in a clean zip lock bag and wrapping it in a heating pad to warm. Rub the injection sight for several minutes then sit on the heating pad for a while. But first make sure the gear is sterile & legit!

 

[djpurpose]

Any easy way to test it?

 

[sparetire]

i wouldn't bake it for 3-4 hours, 250 at 15-30 minutes will suffice. What guage needle are you using first of all? I personally use 23 gauge, anything higher will be hard as hell to get out of there.

But, when I started injecting higher concentrations of gear into my muscle, i would get a 'abcess' like quality for a week. I would have a knot and then the surrounding skin would be red for about a week after. You're body will get use to it, eventually.

 

[macrophage69alpha]

if you got an abcess stop using it. those amps are at the very least sketchy. even if they are not, if you got two abcesses you need to stop. something is not right.


what kind of pins (and gauge) are you using? you should be using 18g to draw and 22-25g to shoot.

good advice here!!!! 2 abcesses!! I'd junk it.. You're health is worth more than that

 

[tempest2003]

i thought abcesses had to be drained etc. by a doc? not the case? this seems like yall are taking it a lot lighter than I would!

 

[djpurpose]

I thought I had an abcess because of the redness, swelling and it being a little warmer than the rest of the glutes, from what sparetire said maybee its nothing serious just my body pissed off about getting shots. It was enough for the doctor to give me antibiotics. I have about a 6"x3" area on each cheak that has a large knot with a little redness. I only have a bunch of 23g pins right now so that is likely why its hard to suck up. Does the cooking at 250 for 20 min kill the gear? Also, is it possible that "nadralone" is spelled differently in different countries? All help is appreciated.

are you sure that is an accurate measurement?

WoW That shit sucks..........

 

[paulwigan]

i would just dump it and buy of a reputable suplier. Why waste your time with crap or fake stuff, i have just had to bin 12 amps of fake cyp but aint worth taking a chance cause anything you inject into your body surely you have to have no doubts about.
The fake cyp i got was the testex teatured in this months MD mag.

You probally just have an infection. Had the same thing with dirty gear. 2cd day your glute starts swelling, 3rd or 4th day it starts getting red blotches and start to have a small fever. Sweling gets so bad that its hard to walk. Toss it bro. i had a full 20ml vial. had to toss it. Sucks losing the money, atleast you'll have your health.

 

[djpurpose]

I don't have a fever, I guessed 6"x3" but just checked it out and it's closer to 3"x1.5" (the size of the knot). It doesn't hurt really, more like soreness. Any way to test it (Hard to toss 1k in the trash). Is there a chance that a pure substance would cause the same swelling? Today is shot day, and I was thinking of baking it @ 250 for 30 min, what do you think? Will that kill the test & deca?

Anything?

 

[Guvna]

baking does not do anything.




throw that shit away.

 

[perp69]

That needle should not touch anything unsterile once it comes out that package. Just draw your stuff and then shoot. Should not be put in water with the cap on either if I am reading that correctly.
Assuming you are using proper technique then I would junk the stuff. First of all it is dirty. Second if it is dirty then it certainly is not made by a legit pharm company so is fake. Get yourself a new source.

Just my 2 cents

Never ever stick the syringe or needle in water!!! Water is filled with bacteria and germs!!! This has to be the problem unless your gear is fake.

The BA content may be to high for you....I had some Test E last year 2 injections= 2 infections....I gave away 2 bottles to my buddy..he took it without a problem.....

 

[immortalis]

I stopped reading this thread after a few posts down, so if my response has already been stated, please disregard and I apologize for added spam.

It sounds like the BA may be too high in the gear that you are using. I have had a couple of buddies have this happen to them, and every time they have had to heat the vial in order to burn off the excess BA content. This has resolved the situation for them each time whenever they have received a few abscesses not due to infection.

Im not 100% sure of the details as far as how they were able to cook out the excess BA content, but i THINK they heated it around 225-250 degrees in the oven with a pin in the vial to allow the BA to escape, however I am not sure on the duration of the procedure.

Perhaps someone else can be of more help on the specifics.
