I finished my second injection last Wednesday, and around 4 hours later my heart started beating rapidly. I checked my blood pressure, and it was normal 124/76. Ever since that injection I have been getting short of breath at random times, and heart palpitations. I'm only using Test E and my AI. Has anyone ever had this experience? Thanks!

Is this your first cycle? Where did you inject? Follow proper sanitary protocols?
Probably just psychological. Perhaps an allergic reaction.

Yeah this is my first cycle. I injected 150 mg into my right delt the first time to see how I reacted for the first injection and all went well. The second injection was 200 mg in my left delt, and 4 hours later the symptoms started. Yeah, I followed all of the sanitary protocols, and I didn't penetrate a blood vessel that I know of, because neither of my injection sites bled at all. My next injection is tomorrow, and I'm kind of iffy about continuing?

Probably just in your head is all.
Haha, yeah I wish I could say I was looking forward to the next pin. Yeah, at some points it gets to the point where I have to sit down or I feel like I will pass out. Did yours ever get better during the cycle?

Once the gear actually starts kicking in,, you'll feel WAY better (4 weeks or so).. Your just having anxiety issues taking the plunge and injecting stuff into your body.

How much AI are you taking? Low E2 is known to cause/exacerbate anxiety.
Are you normally an anxious person?

Yeah it got much better. Second pin I was fine. The other time I got anxiety like that was the first time I ever pinned EQ... I pinned and felt like that right away. Felt like that a few times the first week. I took GABA and no anxiety anymore. Let's me know that EQ is the real deal.
I'm just taking 0.125mg EOD. Na, I wouldn't consider myself an anxious person normally.

May I ask what are your stats, age, wt, ht, BF% and you Training history?
You sound very new to this as well as injecting. This is typical for many guys because they are afraid of needles or mostly they have no understanding about injecting the body. This really sounds like panic attacks. You know the mind will screw you up when it comes to the unknown and any fear of that. Sticking a needle in you arm or anywhere can be scary but get to know and study the operation of injections.
I could go on and on about all the different scenarios , and Q's people ask and when their mind takes them through all the bad things they imagine. Also the bro-science horror stories when they don't know what can and can't happen.
But to tell you very simply there isn't much that can go wrong or life threatening or threatening to your health. That is the injection I'm talking about. The chemicals or the compound defines what can happen.
In this case you are dealing with a simple compound of the Testosterone hormone. As long as the Test is good from a reliable source it should be sterile. Now if not you can get an infection but the symptoms you describe don't go along with an immediate infection that has not had time to mature. Then we key into those symptoms and signs of problems.
I have never (myself) have heard of some AAS being contaminated with a deadly or potentially hurtful chemical.
You will always be penetrating blood vessels of some size large, small, miniscule capillaries. If you see blood that's common. You can go straight through a vein and not bleed and or bleed a lot. I've had blood squirt out like a syringe would squirt. To inject into a vein with any amount that could get in to hurt you or ill you is ALMOST impossible. I've never heard of a person (myself) that got sick or ill by injecting into a vein. Maybe someone else has but I've been around for many years.
Addicts that main line (I was one) have a very hard time staying in a vein while intending to get in it. All that is for another discussion.
So to close here I believe and I've seen it often, this is in your imagination. At least the thought of having something going wrong. Your symptoms are psychologically induced and not caused by the needle. That's what my experience brings me to. Good luck, the injections become second nature after a while. Just a pain in the ass...no pun intended Ha..

Hey man! I'm 25 y/o, and I've been lifting since I was 16 y/o. I'm 6'4" tall and currently 212lbs at 14% bf. I'm not new to lifting at all, but I am new to the AAS scene. I've had training in doing IM and IV injections with part of my optometry school program, therefore, I am pretty confident in my injection skills. Luckily the thought of the actual injections doesn't bother me at all lol. I did my third injection about 8 hours ago, and so far I feel fine. I think it was just anxiety about taking the plunge. Thanks for chiming in!
