Okay. So I pinch it between my fingers the same way you do with the stomach then, right?
Despite my high DIY dosage, I don't think the E is really working throughout the entire week. I feel distinctly worse on some days than others.
Does anybody have any resources for doing SubQ buttock injections? How easy is it to miss the spot, and what can happen if I do?
Just did my 4th shot. It only took me like 12 minutes this time!
I felt this strange numbing, almost "sucking" feeling around the needle after it had been in my stomach for a few seconds. I didn't get scared and pull it out again, thankfully, but I'd appreciate it if anyone knows what I'm talking about.
injection anxiety
Did my third shot a couple days ago. Somehow, I think each time has taken longer than the last. But on the bright side, I got it all in there this time!
It's definitely working to some extent, but I have no way of knowing if it's "enough".
It's not like it even hurts that much! They're only half an inch in my case; it's less painful than scratching myself. I guess the penetration just makes it feel scarier.
Yeah, it's just because I had the needle exposed for so long before using it. Even though I never put it down or let it touch anything.
Injection anxiety
I just did my second injection. I don't know why, but for some reason I was more scared to put the needle in this time. I sat there holding the syringe full of estrogen for like 20 minutes after I filled it up, and now I'm worried it got infected. I'm sure I'll get better at this soon, but I thought that it would be easier the second time...
And I chickened out before I got it all in again. The thing is, most people say Lena's recommended dosage of 0.22ml at 50 mg/ml is way too high, so I'm not really worried about losing 0.6ml, but I wish I were at least brave enough to do the full thing.
I feel kinda weird again, but I know it's in my head.
I finally did an injection for the first time. I did it through the stomach - I got most of it in there, but I chickened out at the last second because it started feeling tingly and I panicked. In hindsight, it was probably the alcohol causing a reaction, which is probably fine.
You can probably tell by reading my other posts that I'm very paranoid about something going wrong, which didn't help, because I got so nervous after doing it that it got harder to breathe, which made me think something went wrong... But after a few hours, I'm pretty sure it went well. Now I just have to hope it works, because it's really out of my hands now.
I've just finished sterilizing my first vial. It looks completely clear when still. I'm pretty sure the little specks I see when I shake it now are just tiny bubbles. (I really hope so, anyway...)
I should probably wait until tomorrow to inject, since injecting something that was just in 240°F temperatures doesn't sound wise.
How do I remove the metal cap from an empty vial? This feels like it should be the easy part.
To anyone buying from Dragon Ordnance: what does the packaging look like? To those in the U.S., do you have to sign for the package delivery? Thank you.

I'm not. But I'll manage.
