injection site pain

[bloodshed]

im currently using Test E from an ex-sponsor of this board who's name is also that of a popular gun. with quad injections, ive been getting extreme soreness starting 6 hours to 3 days following each shot. i understand obviously that if im injecting something there will be soreness, and on my last cycle there was some but nothing to this extent. ive currently been using it about 2 weeks, but this seems to me to be odd as the last time i used i didnt experience anything like this. i guess what im asking is, is this normal, or is the gear unclean? is there a way to reduce the soreness?

me and mi brother used to get terrible inflamation and sorenes from testoprim-d so i started puting them in boiling watter and we never got any more reactions

Put a vent pin in and bake it at 250F for 60-90 minutes.

yep, i baked my gear after the first gong show of a shot, 160ish for about an hour, waaaaay better, give it a try for peace of mind, we got enough stuff to worry about.

ill have to try baking it. ive been taking benedryl after my shots recently, because i know some gear was lab tested and was found to have histamines in it. this is helping a bit. it just really pissed me off that the pain prevented me from squatting heavy yesterday...it just seems that if it causes that, taking this is counter intuitive to my goals.

do you leave the vent pin in during the baking or put it in after the the 90 minutes are up?

Cheers

leave the vent pin in during the baking

Ok with amps?

Perhaps this is a stupid question, but here goes : Can this be done with glass amps or is it necessary to open the amps and transfer them to a sterile vial first?

just be careful the pin is NOT touching the oil inside.if it does it'll boil out thru the pin b/c of the pressure.

you just want to heat the oil to get fully back in solution.set the amps or vial in a cup of hot water for 10- 15 min.

Never tried amps but I'd feel safer moving them to a sterile vial.

If you are really paranoid or just want to play it extra safe, go ahead and run the gear through a filter while transferring. Be sure to have extra sterile oil on hand to "clean" the filter so you get all the gear out.

i just heat th oil in my syringe for about 1 1/2 minutes with my hairdryer, works just fine
