Lump from hcg.....?????

[v shape]

Last night I did a 1000iu (1cc) sub Q shot of hcg into my stomach with a 29 g 1/2 insulin needle. I filled the entire pin and shot it straight into my fat. Today it feels like there is a small lump and the area is painful. I think the hcg will dissapate hopefully within a few days.

Is is normal to shoot 1 entire cc/ml sub-q or did I shoot too much. have any of you bros experienced this?

did your kit come with water? What brand was it and how did you mix it?

I used the HCG from BDL, it came with two vials I mixed the water into the powder. I injected the hcg IM a few times and there was no problem.

I have done HCG SubQ at 1/2 cc 500IU and never had any problems. Sometimes there is a slight burning when the ejection occurs and other times nothing. A few minutes later nothing.

You mentioned that you shot it into the fat. It does not go into the fat but rather underneath the skin. You pinch the skin and then give yourself the shot where the fold is. It should go through the skin/fat and inject under the skin.

I pinched my lower ab fat and poked it straight into the fold.

Shooting it into the fatty layer is not a great idea... better to shoot into pinched skin, as mentioned.

It will likely dissipate; there's probably an inflammatory response because the tissue around the injection has been inflamed by ripping it apart with the injected fluid (separation of the various layers).

Shit its the 3rd day and I could still feel the lump ,it still hurts too. I hope its not infected. Is there anyway to help the HCG dissipate other than rubbing it?
