Thread: Getting sick after injection.

So I FINALLY started my cycle, this is my first cycle ever and am running Test E. 250mg every 3.5 days. I got my gear from a reputable source that was here on this site. Like clockwork after every injection I have been getting sick. Sore throat, cough, fever, etc... I am doing everything right, I am using new syringes and needles for every injection, cleaning the injection site, pulling back in the plunger to check if I am in a vein and slowly injecting. I just did my 3rd injection today and feel it all coming back again. I have it down to taking vitamin C to help it go away, but I am curious as to why I am getting sick each time. The worst part is the terrible sweating at night! Any ideas or reasons would be great!

Sounds like good ol Test flu. Take time to make sure EVERYTHING is sterile. Wipe top of vial with alcohol pad. Look for any foreign substances in the oil. If you have another vial, try that. Sometimes you just get a bad one, it happens. And it could also be your body rejecting what is going in. For a first cycle, maybe try pinning Mon and Thursday. With the long ester in Test E twice a wk is sufficient and 500 mg a wk is a good beginning cycle, just to see how your body reacts(imo). Usually your body will adjust and the sides will dissipate. Is there any redness or selling at the injection site? If so, this could cause a fever, and take care to not get an infection. Where are you injecting?

Yeah I have been injecting into the delt, alternating arms every injection. There isn't any redness, just typical soreness for a few days from the needle going in. I clean the top of the vial every time, I have looked for foreign substances. On my second injection a part of my arm got really hard and sore, I read to take aspirin and it slowly went away. This morning it isn't as bad of a sickness, so I guess my body is starting to get used to it. I will keep everyone posted I'm thinking about trying it in the glute to see if the soreness part and muscle hardening goes away. Thanks for the info. Also all you guys helped me before with what cycle to run so again thanks for all the great info, keep up the good work!
