deca and test e, why so difficult to move the plunger?
« on: September 15, 2008, 12:56:57 AM »
Both are hg of course.

But when i load the syringe with both of them and try inject, its a pain in the ass to move the plunger, like having some kind of pressure inside and stoping it from moving smooth....

any suggestions?

Its not the juice the pins sometimes are dry and they dont move well cause of friction.  Try putting some gear in the pin and cycling the plunger up and down a few times so it gets lubed up some and maybe moves better.

Agreed. You're probably using pins that are too small. Once I stopped using 25 gauge needles & began using 23 the amount of painful injections I gave myself were cut down substantially.

I'm using 21 to draw and 23-25 to inject (depends on the muscle).

I use 23g 1in pinz. I never had a probably injecting with the plunger, but my first few injections, i had a problem when i would aspirate, the plunger was a little tough to pull back.

I`ve heard many that use a 25 guage but it definately slows the process down signaficantly, you really shouldn`have a problem with a 23, but if you do then don`t hesitate to use a 19 guage ;D, JUST KIDDING ;D

I use a 23 ga pin with no problems. Dont think I have ever used a 25ga.

Hey sometimes I've noticed that if I am shooting in a spot that has some scar tissue, and if I don't aspirate enough it can get stuck.  My advice, is warm it up, and make sure to aspirate to creat a natural suction.
