I get this almost every time I inject in the shoulder. Benzyl alcohol is usually the reason, but it definitely does flow down low in the delt making my biceps red with some swelling, but it usually dissipates in a few days.

I got this problem twice when injecting test suspension into my quads. It got to where I couldn't even squat down without wincing in pain. I ended up sticking a 1.5in needle in there an pulling out 15cc of this reddish grey crap. But the good news is, the pain went away right away. The things we do to ourselves!!!

Thanks for all the replies ! If it weren't for ya'll, I would have probably jumped off my cycle and run crying to the doctor. It was, I think, a good experience...so now I won't freak out next time!

I bet you didn't filter it through a 0.2 micron filter. The 0.45 micron filters that come in the kits will not filter out spores in particular. A friend of mine got a nasty staph infection that way. I took his contaminated gear and refiltered through a 0.2 micron filter and presto, no more infections.
