    I get a "JFK Special" Vitamin B cocktail injection every month at the doc's, and their BIG, so it's not a complete novelty to me, but those aren't depos and the nurse gets it in up near the hip. I went for the meat and then had a go at it with a light touch of a magic wand massager that I usually use on my dodgy left shoulder. Helped, but the initial impact was a still a little sobering. LOL

    Inject yourself? Or have someone else do it? Was wondering if there was excess movement once the syringe was in, which can happen when bending around to inject yourself. If so, that could have been a factor in additional pain.

    Oh... and use a draw needle and then switch it out for the actual injection needle prior to sticking yourself. Makes a WORLD of difference. Those rubber stoppers seriously dull the point of a needle.

    You can always try another site, like the top of your quad instead of your glute, though I'd say glutes are the most commonly used and often the least painful.

    If PIP persists, you can go shallow and do SubQ instead to see if that squelches the problem.

    Self injection; and yeah there probably was a little wiggling. Will try the draw needle switch next time. And while it was a little painful, it was bearable - more discomfiting than anything more; on the other hand, the chiro says that, although I'm a noisy bitch when he's bending me around like a pretzel, I have an unusually high physical pain threshold. Of course, he's got my number and may just be saying that to make me live up to his assessment/flattery so he can push the torture even farther. And the fact is I just find getting stuck with things weird in a way that makes me mentally uncomfortable. I guess if I were gay, I'd never be a "catcher".

    The Waiting Game

    Yeah, I know it's too soon to even think about it. Still



    In the meantime, the source apologized for the delay in getting the gear out by sending me a couple vials of IGF-1 LR3.

    Hmm, thinking...

    Some Progress Pics

    AN old friend of mine has been visiting Seoul, where he used to live, on a business trip and doing portraits of his old buds in his spare time. He came to the gym today and shot me. Here are some of the results.

    I've been trying to add mass since last month's contest and the cut that preceded it. It seems to be working - at least, I think my arms have gotten bigger in the last month, although I've also managed to put a couple of mils of fat over the abs too - and I think it's fair to say that this does not reflect much if any impact from last week's 100mg of Parabolan
