I have developped a sterile abscess from Ultima Gear. From 1 ml, test and masteron.
I don't want any gear replacement.
I don't want my money back. This is just a public announcement.
Be careful using Ultima.
I'm done with them.
I gotta to the ER now.

I have always enjoyed your posts but have never tried Ultima. Really sucks that you went through this, but I come from a time when we would inject .5ml or less in the thigh before increasing the dose. PIP only came in three categories Uncomfortable, extremely painful and crippling. I keep photos of bad stuff and have a photo I will try to find from a flu shot a few years back. Get better quikly and stick to the good stuff
God dam. I'm sorry you went through that. I would quit gear if things were still like this.
it was referred to as no pain no gain
I dont know why anyone would purchase this shit brand anyway especially after all the bunk gear they had out and about. Hell I even have a test showing their DHB was under dosed Test C. Why would you guys trust them again? Just mind blowing.
What can I say fuck around find out.
I was retarded won't happen again. At least the leason I learned didn't cause any permanent damage.
I've completely forgotten the last time I had a lump after an injection! Thanks to Troxevasin, my butt is ready to accept another dose of oil after four days. The days when the oil was soft and there were no lumps will probably never return, unless you buy it at a pharmacy.
Damn bro I’m sorry to hear that. Ultima / Beligas are such shit brands, I really hope to see the label disappear for good one day. The shit they sell is garbage, I wouldn’t pin that shit even if it was free. This is why I will never ever accept a Osgear promo, cause they only vend this trash! Rest up bro and just prioritize rest and recovery, the grind stone ain’t going nowhere.
I was so dumb to trust them again. Just because I got some genuine primo I thought they should be good now.
Fuck around find out.
A lesson always hard learned
Is it cellulitis ? You could be allergic to the carrier oil or the solvent ...it can get infected from like surface bac my ex wife got cellulitis we taking the same vial and it didn't do anything to me and it was sterile but it wouldn't heal then it ended up infected anyway.... So if would get it rechecked with an ultrasound they had her taken antibiotics and would not drain it once there was fluid and the scare is way worse than if you drain the infection if it builds but like during this time she the irritation causedike in a total different spot and this isn't like just a house wife she a nurse went Colombia pretty smart so just saying be careful....she has bad scars to prove ...I wanted to lance and drain it ..but she listened to the dr
I could be allergic. But there isn't any cellulitis.
The site swells up like an infection is present but there's isn't any sign of an infection.
If its an absess can we really call it "sterile"? Sounds like an oxymoron
I've had this before with another terrible brand. It's called a sterile abscess.
A sterile abscess is your body reacting to something in the gear it can't break down. No bacteria, usually endotoxin, particulate, or a solvent it doesn't like. Immune system floods the site, walls it off into a pocket, and you get swelling, heat, hardness. Culture it and nothing grows, hence sterile.
Gets confused with test flu because it's the same machinery. The inflammation dumps cytokines into your blood, those hit your brain, and you get fever, chills, aching. Same pathway real flu uses. So you can't tell them apart by how you feel.
Here's the thing though, you also can't tell a sterile abscess from an infected one by feel. Both swell, both hurt, both give fever. Waiting it out is a gamble and the two outcomes aren't equal. Sterile you just feel like shit for a week. Infected you're looking at cellulitis or worse.
The tell is trajectory. PIP and test flu peak at 24 to 48 hours then improve. An abscess keeps getting worse past 72. Also watch for it going soft and fluid feeling instead of hard, spreading redness, red streaking, or fever over 38.5 that won't settle. Any of that, see a doctor. Antibiotics or drainage, both easy early, nightmare late.
Mine was sterile, two weeks to be back to normal, no hospital.
Medically...yes.
Damn bro good luck. That really sucks. I had that with Beligas shit last year. It's not fun I could not train for almost 4 weeks post drain. I have some Ultima inc from a promo think it's going in the BIN now...was hoping Ultima was back with a vengeance. Fuck.
Not to be nit picky, but in the name of maybe helping a good number of ER bros out, Ultima has multiple promo's with multiple shops going lately. Many are getting and are or will be pinning their gear from Ultima. When you get home and are resting up and start seething with anger, what better way to blast them then by sharing as much vial/batch/lot info as possible?
These fucking once upon a time reputable brands need to be banned from all the big boards. Fuck em' too much good competition out there the game has changed, again.
Rest easy brother, maybe go on a surprise mini cut, lean out, trim any inflammation, come back all insulin sensitive and shit blasting and exploding away in 6 weeks. Godspeed.
Thanks man.
I really don't know what will blasting the vial, the batch number and lot would do.
I don't particularly care to put them on blast, we know they suck. And now I'm done with them forever.
You're absolutely right who the fuck knows what is in any vials today, lot and batches and labels none of it really means squat until you test the vial your are pinning you just don't know.
Banning won't work. This site is member driven so members safeguard each other. Banning stops incoming info which ruins the basis of eroids.
Keep posting bloods...proof etc...
No way anyone should run this shit. Gotta be the worst company on the planet. Never ending problems. Fellas do not run this gear.
why is anyone still getting this shit. they could send me an 53 foot trailer full of this shit and id lose money on the fucking trailer being full of trash.
Bummer to hear about another letdown with this brand. I’m done trusting them, no matter where I buy from. Fingers crossed it’s not a big deal, and you can bounce back and train even harder soon, Big bro!
Thanks I think I'll be okay. I'll just have a shitty week, limping all week. It was retarted to trust them. You live and learn.
The funniest part this is a replacement of bunk gear.
That’s no good.. hope it’s nothing serious
Thanks man. No most likely not serious, I'm just gonna have a shitty week with migraine and poor mobility.
I just hate this brand so much. First vitamin E, bunk gear now this. Fuck them man.
What did the ER say/do?
It's most likely a harsh reaction to a solvent. Or contaminated gear, or huge amount of endotoxins. I can't wait for the battery of test incoming.
They're are draining my injection site. But only blood is coming so that's a good sign.
It means infection is very unlikely.
Sounds like pip....
Did they drain it with a needle? Sorry you're going through that
They tried, only blood comes out so they stopped.
This isn't a infection or an allergic reaction, I've used their gear before. I didn't have any issues.
My injection site has swollen to 4 times the size. The skin is really tight, and it's trobbing. But I am antibiotics so all good.
Thank you for the heads up. That’s scary, I hope you recover quickly!
I'm sorry to hear that. I have a couple promo vials of their boldenone and NPP. Their anavar has been treating me good, and I was hoping that was a sign maybe they rounded a corner. Was this gear from around the time of their debacle with the raws and issues with vials? Very disappointing.
Idk man just be careful. There are better brands out there.
I hear that! I have run mostly products from the three most well-known and widely reviewed brands, but was curious about venturing out.
I wish you a speedy and successful recovery!
Shit bro,
Hope this gets alleviated fairly quickly.
Godspeed brother, hope you recover soon, that’s terrible news. Not for the brand they’re trash, but for you and your health.
Is it a recent swelling mate or has it been going on for some time?
I'm so fucking retarted man. Everyone told me not to shot it.
I just thought they wouldn't fuck me again.
I shot it yesterday and I've been suffering from a fever all day. Elevated heart rate that even 10 mg of nebivolol can't calm down.
I've got a fever, chills, elevate blood pressure.
The injections site has swollen up and gotten bigger.
It'll be Test Flu mate - the fever will be gone in 24hrs from the minute you got it, it feels like you have a cold I know. I've had it many times when I have changed Labs to another brand of Test.
