ahh...reminds me of the time i had to give an injection to a patient in front of the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations(JCAHO)..for those of you who dont know,,they drop by hospitals unexpectedly and make sure everything is done right and ask you a million questions you pray you know the right answer to..or else.......man i was shaking... knocked down the vial twice..kept getting an airbubble in the syringe,,bent the needle,,then on my way out the door i accidently steped on an IV piggyback(small IV antibiotic bag) that fell on the floor of the medication room and it busted open...it was a nightmare...i know your pain

Puss

Way to go man. My first was in my glute and my neighbor had to do it for me. Took a few shots to calm down. I've tried delts and glutes and hate 'em. As a matter of fact, I'm sitting in a bathtub right now massaging my fuggin quad because it's so damn sore from this morning's shot.

Stick with the glutes man. Painless.

Man I never have any fun stories for these threads. I did so much goddamn research before my first shot that i wasn't nervous at all...i was excited. The next day I had that little bit of knotted-up feeling so i knew it was in the muscle, and i look forward to e4d now... Some are smoother than others tho, so get used to that...

Heh, kinda the same here. My first injection I used like 10 seconds to penetrate and push the needle in there. And used about 10 seconds to inject it. I was shocked how easy I took it. I had prepared myself for a lot worse.
