Christmas came early...I got a fuckin abcess!!!

[Birdman]

Getbig Bros...This fuckin sucks.

I did an inject into the right glute last Friday of only 2 cc's of Test E.  Painless inject and had no pain until Sunday evening.  By Sunday evening my temperature spiked to 102 degrees and the abcess started to become visible.  By monday morning I could barely get my ass out of bed because...well it hurt like SHIT!  So by Tuesday the infected area has a radius of over 6 inches.  Im talking over half of my ass cheek is dark red and hot to touch.  So I went to the hospital yesterday because I knew that I needed to get on some antibiotics and the shit was getting worse every hour. 
I bounce at a night club and I had a relatively rough night last night because I was so sore and stiff.  I noticed that when I got home (about 4 am) that the redness had/has streaked all the way around my hip and is not only about 3/4 of an inch from the Birdman's eggs (nuts).  The doctor said to watch it and make sure it doesnt get to close...Well I think thats pretty fucking close so Im getting a little paranoid.
What do you guys think? 
Im a little freaked so any positivie info would help.
The doctor said that if its not going down by Friday then he wants me to go in for immediate surgery.

You could make an appt. now and cancel it if U get better

[Overload]

Get your "ass" to the doctor ASAP.

[emn1964]

You need to go to the doc.

[freakfestMD]

This needs surgical drainage.

Bro.... I would love to give you some positive feed back, but there is absolutely nothing that I can "tell" you that is going to make you feel better, other than..... I kinda went thru the same thing a while back. I was in intense pain ( I walked around with it for 6 days before I realized that there is no such thing as "wishful healing") and had to go to a doctor, he looked at it and sent me to a surgeon right then. The worse part was the numbing shots he had to give me. (8 of them. All around it). But as soon as the shots kicked in and it got numb, he made a small cut on in and it was imediate relief. ( but I'm warning you bro... the numbing shots are bad. Real bad!! They hurt like hell because the area is so sensitive and swollen).

Go back to the doctor or go see another one, if the 1st doctor you saw just wants you to "keep an eye on it". Keeping an eye on it, will not make it better or make it go away, believe me, I know! Cuz I tried that already. LOL

Mine was bad enough that the doc prescribed me Lortab 10s after he cut me, but I didnt need em after he did.

[b.c.]

Bird get to the Doc asap, sounds like you didnt get deep enough into the muscle and its spreading all over the place.

[Birdman]

The doctor gave me lortab 10 as well yesterday.  I just talked to the doctor and told him whats happened and he told me that the antibiotic hasnt even kickin in yet.  He said that he talked to two seperate surgeons and they said that I should give it one more day (to give the antibiotics time) and if not better by tomorrow afternoon or Friday morning to go immediately to the ER and be admitted for surgery.  

Ill keep you guys informed.  

THIS SHIT SUCKS.

[Luv2Hurt]

Stay positive bro and follow proper protocol you will be OK, you have done the right things.  it takes at least 24 hours for the antibiotics to start working.  just dont let it throw you off too much.....its under control.

BirdMan- What kind of Anti-Biotics?   Augmenten?

[Birdman]

BirdMan- What kind of Anti-Biotics?   Augmenten?

Cephalexin 500mg/4 x's a day

its generic for Keflex

[weldr911]

Thats the same antibotics I was on. They're pretty strong. Gave me the shits REAL bad. But they do the job

[Rimbaud]

Cephalexin 500mg/4 x's a day

its generic for Keflex

Keflex tears my stomach up.

[trab]

Augmenten should come with 24 rolls of toilet paper and 3 cans of baby wipes 4 when those are gone.

[nycelife]

doesn't sound like fun. did  you re-use a needle or something? why does this happen?
hope we get to hear some better news from you tomorrow!

[240 is Back]

shit.  keep us posted.  take some pics!

[whitewidow]

what brand of gear were you shooting?

[Birdman]

what brand of gear were you shooting?

I was using BD...Ive used it for my last three cycles and havent had any problems.  And to answer a previous question I didnt reuse the pin...I draw back from the bottle and put a new needle on so it was the first time the pin had ever entered anything.

240...Im still having a hard time trying to take pictures because Im so stiff that I cant turn or manuever to take pics.  Ill try to get my wife to take some tomorrow. 

Fortunately the redness hasnt got any worse since this morning.  The doc told me to use a sharpie every couple hours and draw lines where the redness has gone and it hasnt gotten any worse so Im hoping and praying that I might be over the hump.

Ill keep you updated throughout tomorrow.

Ive heard other people have this same problem with BD Test E. the batches vary like a motherfucka.
there were some pretty shitty batches going around though and complaints about their Test E. BD even reformulated it at one point.

Im starting to think that it is the BD Test E.  I have never had a problem with any other legit gear.  My first two or three cycles were even QV and I never had any problems.  I did a cycle a few months ago with a some stuff including Test E from BD and I think the I might of got the abscess then but it wasnt bad.  It was swolen, red and painful but it went away after a few days so Im thinking there was still some sort of small boil or something in my glute and I might of injected right into it and caused it to flare up.  Time will tell.

I have had no problems with the BD test E.  A little pain at times, I just used their prop on monday in the quad and am having a hard time walking today, hope all the shots dont go that way

I've heard their Prop is quite painful. But then again I've never used it & won't use Prop again for that matter.
