Test Prop pain...an observation
« on: August 22, 2006, 07:28:41 AM »
I think most of us will agree that Test Prop can literally be a pain. Everytime I shot Prop or Sust it feels like a fucking muscle cramp for about three or four days (sometimes five or six). Which sucks because I like Prop & Sust because you can feel it quicker then Test E or C. However, recently I noticed something that I thought was a little odd. Recently I noticed that it doesn't hurt where I inject but a little lower then where I pinned (sometimes to the right or left). Any thoughts?

Maybe it's because that's the place where the drug disperses after the injection.  I've found that I can minimize test prop pain if I work the body part into which I injected the day of the injection.  So, if I do a quad shot, I'll work legs that day and it seems to minimize the pain.  Doesn't completely remove it but it does help.

I've tried that & it doesn't seem to help.

That was kind of what I was thinking. I was hoping that someone out had some research that says why Prop hurts so much (I can't find anything). I don't notice any pain with Test E, C, or EQ.

This is the reason...nothing you can really do about it, so it's up to the individual as if they continue to use it.

That's pretty much what I think...however, I can't find any research to explain why Prop causes so much pain. I think this is it for me though. No more Prop or Sust...just Test E & C from now on.

I agree with rim Test E or C and that it i have the same reaction to sust and prop and I dont like it.

What's weird with me is that the pain with Sust stays for longer then the Prop.

has every brand you tried been this painfull? If your prop is based in ethyl oleate it should shoot smoother. also it could be the BA content-

Don't know if it's wrong, never had a problem with it, but I inject with EQ or Deca and the pain is less intense. Just a thought.
Just spot me BITCH!!!

I did notice that when I inject sust or prop with EQ the pains only about half as bad.

An old Mick Hart trick is to warm the amp ina cup of warm tea, or under your armpit for a couple of minutes. This really does minimise the pain
