[QUOTE="DJXS, post: 209760, member: 43123"] Thanks for the quick and great feedback, madman! Considering I'll be having to self-inject for the rest of my life, which will hopefully be many decades longer, I'd prefer to minimize frequency, balancing this with the parallel goal of keeping levels above 500ng/dl at trough and within 1200ng/dl at peak. With this, I'm hoping to avoid frequency of more often than every 5 days; perhaps 120mg/5 days. I'm currently using 23g x 1.5" needles. I inject quite slowly, on purpose, but I've still been left with charlie horses for about 3 days post-injection. I'm thinking to try 27g x 1.25" needles, hoping this will help avoid post-injection pain; I know, I'm a sissy. My doctor insisted on 22g x 1.5" needles, yet the oil is easy to inject with 23g. But do you think the cyp. oil will push through a 27g just fine (with 3cc barrel)? Do you think 27g would be the smallest reasonable needle, or might I even be able to get away with a 29g? I'm using BD precisionglide. [/QUOTE]
