Needle overusage? NOT A GOOD NITE!

[JarheadJoe]

So Im 3/4 through TestE/Decabol cycle, making decent gains but hit a road block.
Last shot was friday, 3 days ago. Shot 1.5ccTest+.5ccdeca in same needle as always. next morning the area was a golfball sized ball and hurt like hell.
12 hours ago the area became warm to the touch and slightly red and kind of hard. Nothing like this have ever happened on the other shots using same exact gear.
I got concerned so went to the Emergency room and was asked right away "have you injected anything in your glute lately"
I said No...No way.
The ER doc had no idea what it was and ordered a CATscan which came back negative for any cysts, pockets of fluid or abcesses so he put me on Keflex 500mgx 8 days.
Could NOT tell ER doc that I had reused my syringe and probably not cleaned it as I should. To admit to AS usage would cost me my job easily.
Now Im hoping the keflex clears up the infection if there in fact is one.
Anyone ever use a pin too much and get an infection from it and if so, how hard was it to clear up
Thanks guys

One time is always too much to reuse a pin.

Always. Ever.

Edit: I meant "reuse" not "use"

 

[gstacker]

Don't ever reuse pins if all u gots a lil site infection consider yourself lucky... Next time might be hepititus or something...
I noticed we have a new sponsor here that sells pins, I checked out the prices and there pretty fair but haven't heard any feed back yet, getpinz is also good... But ya reusing pins is stupid bro

 

[mrplunkey]

Even if pins cost $20/piece (which obviously they don't), it would be a good return on investment to not reuse them.

One infection, even if you have health insurance, is going to cost you more than you could ever save in your entire lifetime by reusing a pin.

i hope this is a joke, nobody in thre right mind would reuse a pin

I used to lift with a guy (two of them, actually) who would reuse pins. It was crazy. They wouldn't do needle changes from the vial to the stick, even when they weren't reusing the needles themselves.

 

[HAYEZ]

thats unbelievable..

 

[joe d]

damn. well all you can do now is wait it out. lesson learned. study up on injection safety and injecting oil based drugs to prevent future problems.

 

[goal245]

Don't reuse needles and if you ever need to go to the doctor for an injection site problem tell them you were injecting vit B12 which is legal without a script

Re-using pins makes about as much sence as re-using toilet paper and condoms

chances are real good that the gear in the vial youve been using the same pin to draw from is now contaminated and should be tossed out. unless you want another absess..........

 

[sparkant]

we so lucky in uk we get pins for sod all if i fart while im drawing i change the pin cus i can lol seriously though hope your problem get sorted and a lesson is learned

Jesus christ! Fucking stupid when you consider that you can get 100 syringes with needles for as little as $13 from our board sponsor. They will even ship it right to your door in just a couple days!

Glad you're OK bro and I won't pile on. Just listen up and never do it again...

I believe he's saying he put the test & Deca in the same syringe and injected together, but only used that once.

Nope. He sais this:

are intramuscular injections higher risk for abscess than intravenous? Just find it odd to hear more people getting abscess' from AAS injects than junkies shooting heroin or the like. Then again I'm not a regular reader of www.eliteherioinjunkies.com either.

Intraveinous unsterile injection can cause a staph infection.

Actually the infection from that is fairly common it's known as aids

That's only if you share needles with someone who has AIDS in the first place.
