Testosterone made me unable to walk

[tension]

back in march-may i ran 250mg test cyp per week

i would do 125mg twice a week

my first test injection was subq but it was too much oil so i switched to IM which i hated

my second injection was my right quad and that went fine so the next one i had planned would go into my left quad

spring break had just started luckily bc of what was abt to happen

i pinned half a syringe into my left quad and it felt fine for most of the day, but by nighttime it started to feel pretty bad

i didn't think too much of it tho bc my other 2 injections hurt a little

the next morning i woke up and when i was moving around in bed and bent my knee it was extremely painful to the point that i could barely even bend it at all

i stayed in bed until around 1pm for certain reasons

when i got up to take a shower the reality set in

i could NOT walk

if i put any pressure on my leg i'd be in extreme pain

i had to hop on my right leg and use surrounding objects to hold my weight

showering was genuine hell bc my shower is also a tub so you can't just walk into it

you have to step up into it and mind you i couldn't life my left leg bc if it straightened i'd be in agony and if i bent it i'd also be in agony

it was only painless when i had it at a certain angle

so when i had to get my leg above the tub i was in tears bc of how much it hurt

i was also terrified abt what to tell my parents bc obv i didn't tell them i was pinning test

i ended up saying that i didn't know why it hurt and i must've injured myself working out or something

a couple days later i was tryna figure out if i should go to urgent care or not but then i decided to book an appointment with a doctor under my insurance so that i wouldn't have to pay a shit ton

my mom found me an appointment that day but it was in 30 minutes and the doctor was 30 minutes away

so i had to get in my car and drive there alone while i could barely even walk

luckily for some reason wearing shoes made the pain a lot more bearable so i was actual able to get in my car and drive over there

obv i was still limping nd shit but i actually managed to make it

i told the doctor everything after confirming she wouldn't tell anyone shit

it was lowk fye tho she was feeling on my knee nd shi

she told me that it was most likely just fluid buildup and that i just needed to wait it out

so i went back home and rotted on the couch for the next few days

i also visited family a couple days after that and they noticed fast bc my left knee was way fatter than my right one

the fluid had caused my knee to swell up pretty badly and it was really warm when i touched it

it took around a week to be able to walk somewhat normally again

and it took 2-3 weeks to genuinely be back to walking regularly

then i switched to ONLY doing injections into my vg on both sides

NEVER pin quads unless you know what ur doing

Sounds like you hit a nerve and the oil irritated it and made your leg hyper sensitive or there was a swelling or infection around the nerve

Im gonna go and say that you didnt have a big enough needle for a quad pin and large amount of oil subq quad will fuck up your legs, I am on 350mg do subq in quads, just pin every day bruh

i had a 27G 1/2 inch needle

i bought them with the intention to do subq but then that didn't work so i js said fuck it and pinned IM with 1/2

yeah i plan on hopping back on and doing subq daily pins

either 25 or 50mg a day

pin glutes dumbass

too late broski

Sounds like you hit a nerve and the oil irritated it and made your leg hyper sensitive or there was a swelling or infection around the nerve

i thought that if you hit a nerve you'd be able to feel it

i didn't feel any pain until later in the day

and there wasn't an infection

Pin in ur chest

i mean i was pretty skinny 125-130lbs at 5'7 but it's still pretty likely i got it stuck in between subq and IM
