I'm allergic to deca as well. I have run two deca and test cycles. I used pharm grade deca and UGL deca which gave me the same hives rash and swelling near and below the injection site. The rash is quite itchy. I have tested by doing a deca only shot on one part of my body. The rash develops about 1-2 days after pinning, and lasts for several days. It's not the ba or oil I am having a reaction to. The pharm grade and UGL test I use from the same companies does not produce this allergic reaction.
Allergic reaction?to deca?

Try the skin prick test. Get a bit of the oil on the end of a insulin syringe, press it slightly into the underside of your forearm and twist it so that it pokes into the skin a bit.
Red and itchy will be an actual allergic reaction (also try it with something that you know you're NOT allergic to in order to gauge what your baseline is), though it could just as easily be from the carrier oil rather than deca itself. Contact your source and ask them what is used.
If there's no noticeable reaction (a tiny bit of redness is normal), it's probably just from a high % of alcohol.
By any chance, are you allergic to soy? EO is soy-based, so it's common to get a reaction from it.
