Hi Folks,

I stumbled upon JM 2 years ago and thought this is the most organized board around the internet. (totally not bombarded by nonsensical ads.) so Kudos to the people that run JM.

I ran my first cycle back in 2010. and have been cycling once a year or so.
I am seeking an opinion from you guys on a couple things.

1) How important is aspirating when pinning?
(I'm asking because sometimes I do when I use my right hand but I dont when using my left,
I sometimes push the the substance through in my glutes eventhough I see some blood in the syringe)

2) I'm on Test Prop cycle. I feel my body temperature rising the day after. Is that normal?
Is there anything I can do to minimize the soreness?

3) Do you guys have recommendation for a lotion to reduce the scarness on the pinned surface?

Thanks for the help guys.

1) How important is aspirating when pinning?
I almost can't believe this is a question! Almost! Aspirating is very important! If you ever inject into a vein I don't think you'll ever not aspirate again! Damn dude that shit could kill you in the worse case and in the best case make you feel like you're about to die for a few minutes! I've stuck myself many many times and I'm still not comfortable enough to just say yeah its good! I'm sure we've all pulled out and had some blood in it but that doesn't mean you even hit a vein. If you were in a vein the syringe would be easy to pull and would fill with blood. More than likely its from a capillary! Capillaries generally carry small amounts of blood and tend to be low pressure so they don't bleed a lot. Always Aspirate and save yourself some unwanted harm !
2) I'm on Test Prop cycle. I feel my body temperature rising the day after. Is that normal?

I think for some people it is normal for your body temp to be up a little. It tends to do it to me to but I know others that don't have an issue. I also notice I sweat like a hooker in church without exerting much effort. I always like that part of it!
With prop you can try heating up the oil a little and see if that helps but pretty much prop is still gonna bite a little! Its prop!
3) Do you guys have recommendation for a lotion to reduce the scarness on the pinned surface?
You can try some vitamin E oil!

Thanks for the response guys.
Always learning something new, so there IS a difference between capillaries vs Veins (thanks manonmac)

I'm in cutting mode so I'm minimizing my hangout time with my regular guys, who like to eat out.
I rather hang in here to get motivated to eat super clean!

I'll chip in to others whenever I can.
Cheers

Very good info and aspirating is so, so, important... If you inject oil into your vein things may not go so well.... and just some more info for you: use an alcohol swab on your bottle AND on the area you are injecting (and use two different alcohol wipes)
