Infection

I got an infection in my tricept. I don't want to blame the gear (yet), I hope it was just a careless inject. I was sick for two days. Today I'm feeling much better and my body seems to be fighting it off pretty good.

I've been using this gear for months now but it was a fresh vial that I opened. I'll try my quad tomorrow, it seems like a bigger muscle mass should be able to handle a little infection, if it is the gear.

maybe you should at least try to heat it up a little if you think it is the gear, why risk an infection in the quad. i'm sure you have seen the pics of what that looks like should it need to be removed. just my two cents, but i don't think it is worth the risk.

got an extra whatman?

put a heating pad on it....

damn your brave.

check out my link for infections. get some for your dog for his "kennel cough". filtering would be a good idea as well

maybe that batch just has extra high BA and you're having a reaction to it...or it's just plain ol' dirty...lol

Remember the terrible reaction we had to the QV gear? lol.

I remember. B2See, it's enanthate and it's an UG lab so I'd rather not post negative comments since I'm not 100% sure it's the gear.

most ug labs dont filter then inject through a sterile syringe into a clean sterile vial
some filter it into an open vial then cap it, bad move.
bacteria goes in the air and the caps have to be handled and unless they sit in alcohol its a high risk of an infection.

get some anti biotics from someone and give that a try first, if its an infection then heat will make it worse.

ummm, Explain your reasoning please. isn't that the whole principal behind your body producing a temperature? The bacteria in question doesn't like it that high and our bodies are more capable of producing a better fight at a higher temp....the enymes/reactions involved are more efficient at slightly above body temp if I remember biochem correctly

Bump for CS

in that area exactly but in this bacteria infection what happens when moldy bread gets heat and water it grows!
an inflammed area gets more area to spread to with a bacteria infection and it can caise blood to flow more rapidly causing the bacterial infection or staph to other areas.
remember its not all area body tem its just that area, it will move to somewhere else where its not so hot all over, and its not internal temp its applied surface heat to depth of max of what the body can withstand without burning.
i once had an infection of this nature and its what i was told and shown, it was severe for some, my doc treats athlets so he see's it often he said.

just sharing my learned info is all. if its untrue then i will give you my docs number to call him and ask him.

so thats it brew...just what i was told, i was given amoxicillian 500mg 3 times a day and iced the area for swelling and no heat.
if the infection has started then the body will build scar tissue to block out the infection from the rest of the body like a protective shield. look into it and let me know if you find anything different
