Test Flu

[BigDane]

I'm about 6 weeks into a test cycle, taking 250mg test E every 4 days. Things have been great so far, I'm up about 10lbs and my lifts have improved as well.

All the shots up until this point have been smooth except 4 days ago I pinned a cc into my right quad and the shot hurt way more than usual. I think possibly I put the needle in at an incorrect angle and it almost felt like it was bending a bit. Even though it hurt like a bitch I toughed it out and finished of the shot. I noticed more pain in my leg the next day and its been getting worse and worse. It doesn't look swollen or red, nor is it hot to the touch but it still hurts like hell and I've been limping around now for 2 days. I've also been feeling a bit achy and like I'm running a slight fever. Woke up this morning and felt much better but the flu gradually got worse throughout the day as did the pain in my leg.

Is this just usuall test flu? this is my first cycle in quite sometime and I only remember ever getting it with sust.

If so, how long does this usually last? I haven't been able to hit the gym now for 3 days and its kind of pissing me off lol

sounds like the bad inject thing. Have you tried taking ibuprofin for the fever/pain? FWIW, how about a antihistimine to bring down a possible allergic reaction. Heating the inject site might help with the pain too.

Some people swear that leg shots cause more problems than any other spot.
Never had an infection yet, but the fever is a bad sign.... I would do some research on this forum and elsewhere in your situation....... Not something to **** around with IMHO..... Do some research, if it gets worse see someone.
Easily treatable early.... early is the key thing.... a few pills a day... people get ****ed up if they wait too long.

The flu seems to gradually be getting better. Pop a couple Motrin in the morning and I'm pretty good for pretty much the whole day until I come home after work and start feeling shitty again. I'll give it a few more days and see how things are. Not overly concerned yet as I think I've had this before and the fever isn't high or constant.

Just needed to here from some others who've experienced this as its been quite a while since I've had this reaction to a shot. I'm a day late in taking my next shot though, I figured I'd wait until I feel better.

Good idea?

Thanks for all the input and advice.
