Guys,
I don't think I have an infection/abscess; I have no signs of fever (temp taken each day). However it's been 120 hours since I took my last shot and I'm still in a lot of pain. I'm slightly concerned as I really hoped today I would wake up and the pain would be gone. I was rather stupid and pinned the same place from the week before (which I thought would be OK)
In the past I’ve had heat and swelling in a muscle I’ve shot but it’s always disappeared after 2 or 3 days maximum. It has been 5 days now.
On Saturday lunchtime I shot my right quad with 2.2ml of testoviron, high up (around 3-4 inches from a hand-span down from hip) in the outside area. I used a pin to draw and a fresh pin to inject. I heated the syringe with a hairdryer before injecting to make sure the solution was nice and warm. The whole session was sterile, I wiped everything down with alcohol including injection site. I had shaved the area already and made sure I wasn’t near any hair follicle. I also waited 5 minutes for the alcohol and the injection site to dry before injecting.
I injected with a 1" 23G pin. I aspirated as usual and injected very slowly over 2 minutes with complete control of the needle and no movement of the pin within the muscle. I then massaged the area afterwards and went and did a great leg work out. I felt great.
24 hours later on Sunday my right quad was extremely swollen and very hot. It was quite painful to walk.
48 hours later the pain was worse and a red patch had developed covering most of the muscle starting a few inches under the injection site and travelling down to my knee. (Maybe the oil dispersing downwards?) The muscle still very hot to touch, very swollen and very painful.
72 hours later the pain hadn't got any worse, however the quad was still very swollen and hot to touch. Now taking pain killers for the pain (I would normally never take a pain killer) and valium to sleep.
96 Hours later the pain is still the same, the swelling is going down slightly, but a lot of heat still in the area. Walking like a retard.
120 hours later (today) the heat has now left the area and the redness has gone, however the quad still hurts like hell and I’m still walking like a retard.
I’m hoping it was just the depot crashing out and irritating the muscle as I have read in many posts before. Or maybe I had developed a slight infection and it’s healing now.
It’s been a real pain in the ass (or should I say leg, ha ha) as I haven’t been able to do any sprinting the past 4 mornings and I don’t think I should be doing legs on Saturday.
Still only 2 pins left and I’m done on this cycle... I guess it’s the left glute and the right glute for me now.
Has anyone else had this experience? What’s the longest anyone has had the pain last for?
Koi.
