Troubleshooting CJCWDAC
ad
Hello All,
I want to thank everyone who was so helpful with my previous cjcwdac post. Last night I decided to try again after I had stopped using it.
I have only taken one injection, but the injection site is itchy and very swollen. This happened the last time before the massive bloating.
I swab the injection site with alcohol before and after injection and I wipe the needle with alcohol before I inject. I also don't reuse needles. This doesn't happen with any other peptide.
- Am I injecting too much? I injected both Ipamorelin and CJCWDAC in the same needle?
- Am I not using enough bac water?
- Am I allergic to the cjc w dac?
- Should I change my injection site? Like maybe thighs instead of abdomen?
Thanks

I get full body hives, extreme itching and my skin turns beet red if I take cjc-dac subq. The key is to do it IM and even if a little bit comes back up, I'll have the reaction.
Since switching to shooting it in my quads, using the z-track method (pull the skin to the side before injection) and also adding .10 cc of air after drawing the peptide, I don't have any sort of reaction.
Thanks scienceguy for sharing your experience.
I am scared though of IM injections. I am not sure if I could handle the pain and I am afraid of infection. I try to be clean, but I am still scared. I have never done IM injections before.
They are no different than subq. I'm not sure how lean you are, but I just use a 29g,1/2" needle and go IM in my quads. There's no pain at all.
Thanks scienceguy! I may work up my nerve to try it some day.
My ghrp2 does this as well. You're injecting a foreign compound in to your system. I'd keep some benedryl on hand but if you show no signs of Anaphylaxis then I wouldn't worry, you're body may need to acclimate to it, but if you feel you need to worry them stop. Be well.
Thanks Generator. I definitely keep the Benadryl on hand. Sometimes with the CJC w DAC I itch all over. I have had to back away from it for a while. Now I am testing Frag 176 for a while. I am getting nice results from it too.
I've been interested in a first hand account of frag. Are you stacking it with anything ? Hopefully I'm not hijacking your forum.
Hi Generator!
I am not stacking it at this time. I am taking about 200mcg at night. I have used it about 4 nights now. I haven't lost any pounds so far, but my waistline has gone down a bit.
Thanks for the reply, keep us informed on progress as you get further into it. FR sent.
No problem. I will do that.
I wanted to update and let everyone know that I am still using the CJCwDac. The bloating in the abdomen is much better. I am now taking 1 bendryl 30 minutes before the injection and that really helps to stop the itching and some of the swelling at the injection site.
I also wanted to add that this is really helping my loose skin. I had some from my weight loss , but it is now tightening a lot. At this rate maybe later in the summer I can go sleeveless.
Changing the injections location really helps. The injection site gets swollen (now using my thighs) and I have some bloating in my tummy, but not like before [when I injected in my stomach]. So I will keep using it this way.
When I take my cjc w/o dac and Impor or GHRP2 I also get some swelling, itching, and redness that is about the size of a quarter
After taking it for a week or two it got better for me though
Thanks Theory - at least I know that my response is normal.
However, I switched my injections site to my thigh and I am waiting to see if I still get the bloating in my abdomen.
how much are you injecting per shot? and how much volume of bac water+peptide per shot? i shoot 1mg mon/thurs (2mg total/week diluted in 1cc , .5cc per shot) bloating is a tall tell sign its good, i bloat on ghrh and ghrps. but i will get leaner. once the cycle ends you will drop the water. i also get itchy a bit and my face will flush a few minutes after injection. this is good.
dont wipe the needle before injection!!!!!!! insulin syringes are already sterile! just swab the top of the vial and the injection spot. no need to wipe the needle. that means a bit of alcohol is going underneath your skin which is probably the reason for swelling and itchiness.
This is my thought as well. Alcohol on the needle will do it
Thanks Dr. Manhattan.
I have since stopped and it is much better now.
Thanks Kapsize.
I appreciate your response. I thought the symptoms I was having meant that something was really wrong. I dropped my dosage from 1mg a week down to 500mcg a week. When I was shooting 1mg my side were much worse.
As far as bac water goes I think I mixed 1ml of bac water. I try to use the least amount of bac water necessary to reconstitute.
I didn't know that about the needle.
I'm still swollen. Less so than I was yesterday, but still swollen. I have a huge roll/softball sized lump with a hard welt in it on my upper left ab. The itchiness is gone- thank goodness.
If this is how it is supposed to work, then maybe I should switch to my thighs. If I inject my thighs will my tummy still bloat?
Ok now I am kind of itching all over a little bit. Nothing major. i just wish I could figure out what is wrong. I have so many vials of this stuff.
