+ 1 Another infection...

ad

Alright fellas...second pin, second infection. Procedure was by the book and sterile. I'm not out here trying to libel anyone or anything, but i'm certain that my gear is contaminated. I posted the other pic a few weeks back of my delt. This is of my right quad, taken 3 days after my pin. Crippling pain with a limp, it is getting red and has swollen the top of my kneecap. Also warm to the touch. I have some antibiotics on hand that I have just started to try and curb this...but after having two contaminated pins, I am going to put this cycle on hold for a while. Again, not trying to blame anyone, but it has GOT to be the gear.

I definitely second the thoughts that your issue is the 500 mg. I mentioned it in your last post, but stuff is crippling by itself. I've never used that source, but I have used others 500. Cut with something it's great. That's what it's made for. By itself, the hormone crystal can have a quad in knots for over a week.
Step one- don't do that anymore.
Step two-get some heat on that leg. A hot bath, sleep with a heating pad. The heat will help the crystals dissipate.
Step three- dont do that anymore.

It's going to be red and inflamed. It's basically like shards of glass sitting in your muscle tissue. It will get inflamed. Take the antibiotics if it makes you feel better. Just don't forget step four-
Don't do that anymore.

Got it - never again. Haha, yea I'm putting everything on hold for awhile, but when I pick it up I am going to find some STERILE GSO

brogrammer's picture

Good to know man. Yea i'm limping like a mofo today haha. I'm going to put it on hold and pick back up in the fall/winter. Looking into grabbing some GSO or Cottonseed to dilute with. Where did you find sterile GSO?

brogrammer's picture

I talked to a few places online, and they said that their stuff isn't "sterile" rather just "pure" and "filtered"

Why would you Pin t500 in your quad and arm as a first time user ? Why would you run any high mg compound on its own? I can't pin my quad with anything let a lot a high mg compound it cripples me and I've tried multiple times, it doesn't work for me. For a first cycle stick with your glutes and get the right compound. Your not shooting 3cc and running more then 1 compound so why would you even pin t500. Your asking for pip and to be in pain.

Get the feeling's picture

Not infection. I had the same exact thing.
Take ibuprofen couple times a day with some advil and ice it, youll be fine. It was the Test 500 that your body couldnt handle

I believe you are being 100% honest. The problem here is you get a lot of source groupies whom will deffend there chosen source tooth and nail. This is not a normal reaction by any means. Is it the gear? Is it pinning technique? Who know. There are so many veriables it's hard to tell.

I have had serious reactions and I. Changed gear and had improvements.

Its part of the game. I put 2cc into my delt recently for the first time. Zero pip.
Glutes ventro delts. I only pin quads if I dont have to work for a couple days after. Shit getsserious

brogrammer's picture

Appreciate it man

ericnonaya's picture

throw the shit away if its dirty and giving you infections.

BIG_T's picture

It's test 500 what did you expect it needs to be cut at the least with some EQ. Pin that alone and you're asking for trouble

Pepwarehouse's picture

agree with cutting with some eq. @ brogrammer, Are you running the Test solo or any other compounds. Would help cutting it. Invest in a big bottle of some type of sterile oil, like gso or something else if you know you react well to it and cut it at a 1:1 ratio. Example. 1cc Test 500 with 1 cc gso. This would help. May not eliminate pip but will help considerably. Future advice stick to the more common mg compounds like your test 250's ect. Good luck buddy.

I'm not sure why everyone thinks I was being condescending to be honest. I was being truthful and everyone just attacks with their snarky comments. I was being honest with people and I'm not sure how you want medical proof when I told you I've gotten antis from a medical doctor

Geewhiz! 23 yrs old an not listening to anybody... there's something NEW! >: /

brogrammer's picture

Yea i guess i didn't realize that the higher concentration would fuck me like it did. My PMs with sources didn't really lead me away from that though so I thought that the PIP would be the same for all. I got proper pinning down, so I know I didn't infect myself there. It has to be the gear. And like I said the doc gave me antis for cellulitis so I know its not just inflammation or something.

Like I said below, I'm just puttingeverything on hold for a while and doing the damn thang natty.

brogrammer's picture

Yea I read your posts on PIP rusty. Good stuff. Yea it's 500 and yea i know that its highly concentrated. But this is more than PIP. I tried to treat it as such before but after the doctor saw it he was like whoaaaaa and gave me antis for cellulitis. So that's where I'm at. It's making me put this cycle off for a while :(

brogrammer's picture

Yeah I'm done with it right now. Going to just do a summer cut and then get back at it next fall/winter. Guess I'll just trash these vials and get some Test250s like I planned.

brogrammer's picture

Yea I was going to buy some GSO and cut it, but just decided to hold off for a bit since i've had to start/stop with the infection. If the vial already has a little GSO in it, do I have to dilute with more GSO, or could i go cottonseed? Just in case my body doesnt like the GSO

Knudmt's picture

I had some deca that was mixed with cotton seed oil, which gave me some pretty nasty irritation. But that doesn't look like an infection. The only way to know for certain is to go to the doctor. Redness, inflammation, and soreness is not indication of infection. I also agree that the concentration of your test could have a lot to do with it. 500mg/ml is meant to be mixed with other steroids. Anyways, better safe than sorry go do the doctor. tell him to leave notes off the chart about the injection of AAS. just my 2 cents.

brogrammer's picture

Yea man sorry. So i pinned about a month ago...got infected...and quit while i was on antibiotics...then i tried again....infectionnnn

Knudmt's picture

how did you verify that it was an infection?

brogrammer's picture

Went to the doctor

Knudmt's picture

Ok.. cool.. glad that you went to the doctor. infections from gear can be really nasty. smart move bro.

Some would say you need to go with a longer needle. You could always try and sterilize your gear to see if it really is dirty or not.

with a whatman or like baking it?

B F rube's picture

I would do both if you think it's dirty

brogrammer's picture

I've read on here about some guys baking it. Some for it; some against it. Doesn't harm the hormone at all?

raw lifter's picture

I think they use gso which some guys i know get the same issue from that carrier oil.

I see a bruise on the thigh is that where you pinned. If so it looks like you aren't using a deep enough needle and the oils are trickling down sub Q which will cause a lot of pip. Other than that you may be allergic to the carrier oil for the gear, which is more likely. Gear possibly contaminated but Limey one of the other 2 ref.

brogrammer's picture

Not sure what that bruise is from. I pinned on the outside of the quad. Used a 1" needle.

BIG_T's picture

what were you pinning and how much?

brogrammer's picture

Test E 1/2mL
