Is the site where you injected red and warm?

[cbr929]

yes

[gorilla_boy]

That's not good. Maybe an infection...

You should probably get it looked at. The sooner the better.

[cbr929]

what do I tell them I don't want to tell them I was injecting roids

[cbr929]

should I act like maybe a spider bite or something

[gorilla_boy]

If there was no redness and heat and whatnot you would probably be ok, just painful juice.

Tell them whatever you like. The spider bite thing is plausable I suppose.

You really don't want "steroid" anywhere in your medical files so deny, deny, deny.

I haven't had it happen to me, but I've seen posts with pics of similiar problems. They were red and swollen, looked like a hell of a lump. They seemed to go down after a day or two. Check to see if you have a temp. If so, you could be fighting an infection. You can't fool an md, they'll know it was an injection of something. So, if you go, be up front and be prepared for a lecture. But, they'll hook you up with some keflex.

can they tell it was by a injection

[cbr929]

is there anything over the counter I could take

Not that I am aware of. Unless you have an anti-biotic in your medicine cabinet or have access to some, you'll need to get it at a pharmacy.

damn I dont want to go to the doc i don't need that on my files

If you want to try and pull off a spider bite, you'll need to stick the pin in again right next to the first site. You want the appearance of 2 teeth marks. My brother was bit by a brown recluse (sp?) spider and had a hell of an infection. That was in North Carolina.

Did you use a clean needle the first time and an alcohol swab before and after the injection?
