Hey man, at least you didn't do like me and get syringes that were like 23 gauge when you started. Yes, I was actually pinning with 23 gauge needles. Because I'm a dumbass. For reference, that's absolutely humongous. Shit hurt, lol. When I finally got to the insulin sized ones, it was like a revelation and I had NO fear anymore, lol.
Holy shit bro I just looked up that size that is diabolical LMAO I was even scared of the 5/16 inch needle. I would of just said fuck it, If I had to do that size ngl. Good thing you had that revelation haha
Yeah definitely being conservative with it, If I react good I might bump up higher, soonerWell, the starting dose for reta is usually 1-2mg. So you're just being conservative- I don't think there's anything wrong with that, especially since some people are concerned by the heart rate. I've never tried reta, myself. Typically it takes 4 weeks for them to build up in your system.

That's a good site to play around with the numbers and see what your blood levels would look like.
Looks like a Nexha Cagri 5 kit... Tell him what he won @chmuse! 🙏
Some heart rate increase is normal.
Yes she said she got Nexa so I figured best to send the same brand!
I was so incredibly nervous before my first injection. Then I finally stuck it in my stomach and it that was so easy to do that the whole situation seemed comical.
I’m waiting for your next post along the lines of not being able to shit for 5 days
wait I didn't do this part of the research
Yeah exactly how I felt, I'm like "okay you can stop freaking out now that was easy"
Yup... That pizza's gonna taste great when you're still burping it on Friday! 🤢
Yeah I had to literally slow the syringe down because it was sucking it in so fast lol
It's still better to be burping than not burping. I'm not saying that the sulphur burps are great, but after having gas stuck in you that won't get out, taking something simethicone pills (Gas-X) is quite a relief. Simethicone works by making the gas bubbles in you smaller so they get out easier. I'm not telling anyone to take this preventively, but if you need to take the stuff, it's great. You can't become dependent on it and it has an extremely low rate of side effects.
After I'm done injecting bacteriostatic water, I always take the plunger out of syringe and stick it in the vial so that the vacuum isn't maintained. I dislike fighting with the vial to get the liquid out.
Yes it’s fine it will disolve once reconstituted.
When you're reconstituting is it okay to use the same 1ml syringe to withdraw the bac water after you put it in the product vial, lets say 3-5 times? Ideally I should have gotten a bigger one for that but I didn't really think about it lol. Also this is a good idea to remove the vacuum thanks for sharing
Not ideal to my standards, but most here will tell you it's fine.
What would that accomplish?
it would create a vacuum in the vial.
Yes it's normal I ordered 10 and they came in looking like a cotton pellet.. 😆
This question is addressed to those from healthcare backgrounds or anyone else who knows the answer: Is there an any advantage to creating a vacuum in a newly reconstituted vial of peptides?
None of us is ready until we do it. That can probably be said about a lot of things!
no just from handling lots of biological drugs there is no benefit and may cause damage to the peptide.
Then it's possible that constipation will turn into diarrhea. It's weird that the same medicine can cause either.
I'm not going to tell you what's okay since I don't actually know. I personally use a 3 ml syringe to withdraw the BAC. Due to its size, I only have a need to use it once.
I agree, anything new has a learning curve. The best thing to do is just limit your mistakes for example (learning from wonderful people on this forum)
