YAY for infection

[04svtspray]

So on sunday did a quad shot, 1.5cc of test e. Now three days before that I was coming down with a nasty cough and running/stuffy nose. Quads used to be a easy spot for injection but this time I knew something was wrong. I had the needle on the skin and pushing down slowly, ( i dont like pressing hard incase I hit something) well the needle wouldnt budge at all. I went down about an inch and inserted it again and this time it took some strength to break the skin. Anyways finally got it in and injected SLOWLY and so forth. Now i swabbed the area good and the viral too. I dont no what really caused the infection but to make it short, went to the doctor today because I can barely walk and they did a blood test and examined my quad and she said it was infected:hammer: So she wrote me a script for antibiotics and hopefully I will be good to go. I had to pay it out of pocket because I didnt want my insurance company to know.:sad:

What was the diagnosis, cellulitis or abscess?

Cellulitis, she prescribed me some clevar or something I'm not at home with the bottle. Maybe it started with a K?? Anyways I have to pay it tomorrow, because the clerk at the payment desk left early. She said it would be around 200.00

Just tell them you were doing B12 injections or something. Then again, self-administering injectable anything outside the auspice of doctor advice probably doesn't sound good nonetheless.

Probably gave you Keflex. Strong anti-biotic. You can actually get it from pet stores if you know what you are looking for....

I have a bottle from of them from a softball wound (sliding on gravel).


Sucks that you got infected though. $200 is cheap if it goes away.
