it wasn't the gear cuz it's been used before and after the incident without the same thing happening.

went to doc and told him I had no idea where it came from and I thought it was cellulitis. He agreed, told me to continue the antibiotics i was already taking, wrote me a script for more in case I ran out, and sent me on my way. Now, about 3 weeks after it started and after 10 days of ABs, it has completely cleared up.

that was scary.

From now on I'm recommending to anyone I know to have an AB on hand such as Clindamycin or Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) before starting a cycle. Even with clean and proper injecting techniques, I still managed to somehow get a skin infection. As long as you are breaking your skin there is always a possibility of infection even when you believe you are being sterile. I'm always going to have some on hand for my future cycles.

Can a mod close this thread? thanks

agreed, I have clindamycin and zithromax on hand right now, good to have in case of emergency even if it's not gear related

anti biotics can do more harm then good they kill ALL bacteria not just the bad bacteria..

Yeah, but would you rather he have an infected abscess all over half his leg? What you say makes sense for something like a bacterial simple cold, but not something like this.

i see what your saying, but all im saying is when i had ALL the symptoms of an abccess on my glute during my last cycle it lasted for nealry 3 weeks then died down i dont know its a tricky one, if you go see a doc they will end up getting your leg cut off or something they will freak...its a tricky one

if your temp continues to rise, go to a CVS/Walgreens Clinic, tell them you think you got bit by a spider, theyll send you on your way with some anti-bis no other questions asked.....If its bad enough(staph infection, needs drained, etc) youll have to go to a 24hour med check place, pay cash, list no Primary Care physian and tell them that you cant afford the doc, they CAN NOT turn you away, because you can not pay, neither can an ER at the local hospital
