I felt Like I was dying today from an injection! E-GAD!

[sparetire]

Well, here I am on my 4th week of test 400 (cyp/ent). The blend that I have was an old batch, nothing wrong, but the batch was made with a higher concentration of ba/bb so it usually nots my delts out and makes a red area for about 3-4 days after my injection. The muscle usually gets real hard in that area. 7 days later, soft when unflexed.

Okay, so it's been about 9 days due to my idiot friend punching me square in the delt right where I injected the day earlier. Man, he punched me freakin' hard! He doesn't know I'm on.. At this point, my delt was already sore from the injection from the previous day and now, it felt like a ripping pain all throughout my shoulder.. So the next day comes and the pain grew worse and day after day, horrible pain - that's why I waited 9 days!

So today, I felt the muscle and it fell fairly soft and ready for a nice, smooth injection (the reason why i don't switch to my right is that the right delt isn't used to this painful batch and I sleep mostly on my rightside). I swab the area and push the needle in ever so softly. Once I bottom out, I asparate - no blood, so I begin to push.

I pushed, and I pushed. The plunger was barely moving! I was like, "WTF is going on! Am I in scar tissue or what?!" Usually when the plunger doesn't move, I jiggle the needle slightly and away the oil flies! Well, this didn't. I even backed it out a hair and then it started to move with extreme pressure pushing the plunger down. I actually had to stop 1/2 cc into the process due to my finger giving out! I pushed again even harder, with the needle barely moving, I finished the process. I pulled the needle out and a small bit of bright blood (normal for my injections) came out.. Not much, maybe 3 drops worth.

Okay, here's where it gets real strange.

About 10 seconds after I pull the needle out, I start to swab the area with another alcohol pad and I start coughing. Light coughing at first, but then it gets more and more intense. I'm coughing so hard, that I'm buckling on the floor, hovering over the toilet because I felt like I was going to throw up. I was wrenching in pain, lightheaded and sweating profusely! I couldn't stop hacking. At one point, I threw up part of my protein shake I drank about 10 minutes earlier! I just kept coughing and coughing for a total of 10 minutes. I swear, I thought this was never end! I thought for a moment that, "god! I hope I don't die here over the toilet in my tidy-whities! how embarrassing!" But I just kept telling myself, I know this will pass and it eventually did do so.

Is this considered to be the dreaded "tren-cough?" I have never heard of this happening with test. I have had a light cough way-way back in the days after an eq shot, but it was like *coff* *coff* *coff* *coff* and that was it. not harsh at all.

Does anyone know what causes this? I didn't inject anything into my blood stream and i'm pretty sure I didn't hit any nerves..It wasn't painful - just hard to push in.. Any one got any idea?

the "tren" cough isnt tren related @ all
It happens because of a high concentration of Ba is released into the blood stream(normally from Home brews using too much BA to dissolve the pellets)
anyhow, excess BA is excreted by way of the lungs, hence the coughing fit you described.
the difficulty of the injection could have been anything, stopped up needle possibly.

I've had an occasion or two where it seemed like something was wrong with the pin because it was taking an abnormally high amount of force to get anything to come out. Something made me take the pin off and look at it and apon looking at it from the part that twists onto the syringe with the needle end away from me, it looked like rust on the inside. If I moved it to just where i could see light coming thru the needle end to the back side of the pin the inner part of the needle looked gummed up. I believe it to be rust, but I have no real idea. Comparing it to a brand new pin looking at it from the same perspective it was shinny and silver instead of dark and cruddy.

This only happened to me when I had some loaded sryinge/pin combos, that I had loaded with whatever substance , which had sat for about two weeks. Like if I loaded up 4 syringes for 2 weeks worth of test (500mgwkly, so 250mg per syringe).

Back off. It could be an infection. Look in the miror and see if you have any 'size' difference, it could be the start of a long infection, or total saturation of that muscle. It happened to me in my left glute, back in the 50mg days, way too much pressure and oil in the muscle. To this day (2 years) I can't hit the glute and it's just now getting back to the other glute size.
I'm not your mom, but please use smaller doses in a wider range of areas.
