Just pinned myself for the first time!! Quad pin

[Cam01]

I got 23g 1 inch needles. I pinned for practice with some water. Cleaned the area where I pinned, washed my hands etc. One lil Problem tho. I did not notice, but there was air in the syringe! So I did not "pull the "trigger" so I took it back out. No blood other than the lil spot where I pinned. But I got a little light headed. Just for a min or two. I did it about two hands up from the knee about 3 inches to the right (right leg). And my quad muscle (area where I pinned) was shaking like crazy for about 5 minutes. Still moving a lil bit.

Tomorrow I'm going to retry it, but this time I will make sure there's no air in the syringe.

BTW, I put some gangsta ass, ghetto, dirty south hip-hop to inject. lol Then, a song I dedicated to my ex came on..what a fucking mood killer LOL

good luck walking on it tomorrow!

A little air in the syringe (0.1-0.2ml) actually helps you get all the gear out and can make for a less painful injection site.

We'll have to see how I feel tomorrow. I'm gonna retry the same spot.. and I think I'll try my ass.. Can I use the same needle if it's right after? I already wasted one. So can I use one for both spots just to see if it works??

technically u can.. its not advised tho cuz the tips of those needles are so sharp that even just breaking through your layers of skin can dull them. so if u double penetrate with the same pin it could hurt more on the second injection.

you can....make sure you rub with an alcohol pad. i prefer using new pins.

Some people love quads, some of us have bad luck. Why not try glutes first if this is a problem for you.

I just did my first and second pins ever this week, both in the quad. No issues, no pain, no blood. One of the two didn't even get a spot when I pulled the needle out. For some reason, I'm not flexible enough to do the glute, so I'm gonna stick to quad and maybe delt for the time being.

if you are going to do glutes lay on a bed and shift the leg up to get to the gluts. you should get use to this spot cause one day you wont be able to reach them. thats the point im at. i cant see and pin i dont do it.

 

[jimbo79]

I get all the air out while i draw the gear, what size pins are you using to draw??

 

[jimbo79]

also, hows your leg??

 

[boston5520]

I shot my flute the other day,i haven't shot that spot in a while so i thought i would try it again. I will never do that again,it hurts like he'll but no pain no gain right

Dude NEVER reuse needles. Infection is a serious thing and it costs a few cents to switch to new needle. If one does not understand implications it does not mean bad things cant happen.

Try ventra glut for injections. You dont have to twist as much as with gluts. Least painful spot on par with glut.

And i hope you donot use tap or boiled or canned water. Use special one forinjections You can buy it at drugstore

As for air in syrynge - i put a small bubble of air in on purpuse. It locks oil in the muscle and does not let it escape when you pull the needle. A lil air is ok even a lot is ok really not advisable though.

also, hows your leg??

23g 1 incher. My leg is fine!! No pain what so ever!! All psychological! I was watching "Panic attacks on Test and winny" so I kinda planted the seed in my head. I used to suffer of bad panic attacks, so you see why.. But I'm good!
I've heard your're actually super good on Test! A lot of ppl suffering from depression are subscribed testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), so I guess test...just makes you happy/angry etc. lol

 

[jimbo79]

are you pinning with the same needle that you draw the gear with?

 

[Cam01]

are you pinning with the same needle that you draw the gear with?

yes

 

[bigcac13]

Damn bro just buy more pins they're cheap as hell. Put a new one on before you pin yourself and if you have to pull out bc of blood or some reason put another one on. Don't risk getting an infection of some sort. Cheappinz.com they're a sponsor here check em out.

 

[jimbo79]

yes

i used to do that aswell, but i find changing pins after drawing and per each injection is much easier/smooth. i also live in a country where its legal to attain pins n shit so cost and stock is not an issue..

 

[avangel]

you're cleaning the spot inject site with alcohol too first,right?
sry, i see you cleaned it.

 

[avangel]

I use new pin each time, man. If you're using same pin to draw, same pin for first inj site, same pin on 2nd site. may be getting dull.
