Injection and Symptoms

I’ve been regularly injecting 2-3 times a week for a year and a half. When I first began injecting I noticed reversing out symptoms that mainly included sharp zaps in my hands and feet. my symptoms have been better for a while now and those zaps have not been present for a long time. I’ve always injected IM in the thigh. Last night I had one of those random terrible times trying to inject and ended up getting the 1.5” needle in only half way. Well, today the zaps have been back. Almost like I have more nerve healing to be done. Does this make any sense??

yes. If you are injecting cyano bw hydroxo, you may need to do more frequent injections. Especially if you are increasing your activity level.

If I try to space out injections or increase my exercise, i typically get a delayed reaction of 1 - 2 weeks after. So it might be something you did two weeks ago for example.

I currently do daily cyano. I also do 1.5 - 3 units a day. The increase in dose helped enable me to exercise more. The exercise in turn helped me to metabolize things better.

Everyone is different so my formula isn't necessarily the answer for everyone.

Perhaps try increasing the frequency.

As a side note: I'm 5'5" 120lbs. Small. This I use a shorter needle.

Not what you're looking for?
