SubCu pain when injecting HCG?

[donjob]

just pinned Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) with a 29g .5" slin pin in my stomach for the first time. i'm shooting 50 units, about halfway through my stomache starts burning. i'm using bacteriostatic water to reconstitute. is this normal or am i just going too deep or not deep enough or what? and also, can you just use the slin pin, stick it in your glute without pinching the skin and still be injecting subcu because you're obviously not injecting IM with that short of a needle. or does it have to be the stomache? no broscience please.

No It's not normal. I never heard of anyone having pain for a water based subq injection

could it be that since i have a very low bf%, when i'm injecting it's shooting straight onto the abdominal muscle? i'm gonna try the quad next time and see if it burns. i thought something might be wrong so i just stopped, still had about 20units lefts. it wasn't excruciating or anything, just didn't seem right.

I spike at a angle for that very reason and perfected creating an "insect bite".

As DPR stated NO this is not normal.

How many GH pins on this brand?

when you say "insect bite" are you talking the sticking or the injecting? the pain isn't from sticking, i don't even feel it going in. it's when i was about halfway through injecting when it felt like i was injecting acid or some shit. i'm a little confused by the question "how many GH pins on this brand?". you mean how many times have i pinned the brand i am using? this was my first one. and it's HCG. i'd hate for this shit to be bunk cuz then i'd be fucked, it already took long enough to get here. i'm running 500iu Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) weekly, 250iu each injection bi weekly for the last half of my test cycle.

You should not have any pain shooting hCG subq - the only time I might feel a little sting is if the alcohol doesn't dry all the way before injecting.

Weird, shit normally doesnt hurt. Bout it been bunk, doubth it, shit is so cheap, that it would prolly cost more to try to make a fake. Try a different spot and try to keep the bevel of the needle is pointin out, that will make the so called insect bite cfm is talking bout.

I have never used Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) but I do use other Peptides and, in my experience, I found that when I do a subq injection too soon after pulling the Peptides from the fridge I do feel a little weird, I always thought it was due to the different temeperature and, since I started waiting a little longer before the shot I have not had that problem anymore. Then again, my BF is around 19.

I don't think you should be experiencing pain. Make sure you actually pull some skin, do the shot and then release the skin.. just in case

may have been taking to long to inject as well? isn't the rule like 4 seconds per ml? i was injecting half a ml and was taking longer than that.
