Test Flu Preventative

[Monster]

Ok, Ive been meaning to throw this out there but it always slips my mind.

When you know (or suspect) youre going to be injecting something that would cause "test flu" take 800mg of ibuprofin and 1 or 2 benadryl tablets (store brand is fine) right after the injection, then again in 4 - 6 hours.

For me this almost completly eliminates the sore and achy joint/muscle feeling and it greatly reduces the swelling at the injection site that seems to go hand in hand with "test flu".


It works after the symptoms appear (if the "flu" sneaks up on you), but its slower and requires you to take the ibuprofrin and benadryl for longer (in my experiance).

I hope that helps someone out, it works really well for me and it makes sense when you think about the symptoms...

If you guys are taking STERILE long acting esthers You should not be getting ANY site related pain or "test flu".

Sterile is for wimps.

I think there is more to it than that. Using the same vial, it has happened to me that I didn't have any problems on shots #1,2,4 but #3 gave me a bad reaction. If the problem was contamination, then #4 should have caused the same problems as #3 but it didn't.

All of my kidding aside, I dont think it is a sterility issue either.

Ive had "test flu" using human grade stuff that I got straight from the pharmacy back in the days, and then NOT had it using crappy Brovel stuff back then...

I dont get it from my QV enanthate, but I do from a "human grade" UG enanthate I have.

Also, if it was a sterility thing, I think we would be seeing abcesses now and then also.


Of course to be honest, its all underground stuff now. The "vet" comapnies arent making their stuff for animals... lets be real, lol.

Monster,

Trust me when I tell you I have done a medical school semesters worth of research on just this topic.

Problem with most UG labs is Particle steriliy this is what cause TRUE puss abcesses which is usually accompanied by a fever.

BA ( Benzyl Alcohol is the Organic solvent most UG labs use) will provide chemical sterility and if left to do its job will kill 99.9% of bacteria and keep a product sterile , problem with BA is its hydrophobic (also in more than 4 or 5% concentration very painful) and seperates very quickly leaving behind the crystalized hormone to irritate the tissue and cause inflamation, lumping and that hot raw swell you get with the flu like felling.


I have been doing my own research and have purchased vials from almost EVERY major UG source and NONE of them are what you would consider human grade by any standards.

Mold count and particle sterility are key concerns, bacteria is almost never and issue.

So Iron God, do you have any ideas or suggestions on how to combat these issues for someone that would be making their own gear?

Thanks

[archive_Iron God]

Simplest and easiest way is just use gear that has a melting point of less than your body temp that way crashing is never a problem and you won't need more than 2% BA

Like....

Test enanthate
Boldenone Undeclynate
Nandrolone Decanoate

ANd in all honesty these 3 substances coupled with AI's will be more than enough for 99% of peoples anabolic needs. Even more so for long term users.

But that just me being a gear snob

[archive_Iron God]

And particle sterility is almost impossible in a home unless you a pressurized clean room that is flo-vented
