[QUOTE="Willyt, post: 204929, member: 38668"] [FONT=Tahoma]I switched this year from E3.5 injections to low dose daily injections thanks to [USER=38109]@Cataceous[/USER]. I'm currently injecting 8mg each morning of Propionate-only [URL='https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/tips-on-how-to-blend-propionate-with-enanthate-or-cypionate.23485/']after trying a blend of Cypionate and Prop[/URL]. Like many on here, I started with harpoon needles from my general physician and than graduated (mercifully) to 29 gauge x 1/2 for shallow IM. The shallow IM has worked fine for me (delts and ventro-glute), but I'm growing concerned that IM is not sustainable over a lifetime of daily injections. I did try SubQ several times on Cyp and Prop with 30 gauge x 5/16 @ 90 degree angle, but experienced burning and irritation for 2-3 days afterwards. Carrier oil didn't seem to matter as I've used both cottonseed and grapeseed. I want to give daily SubQ another try and need advice on best practices to make it work. I am injecting Empower Propionate (grapeseed oil) in doses of 0.08ML so a relatively small volume. I've pulled together a few tips from articles and videos for SubQ in abdomen area (1" outside of naval). What do you think? Maybe I'm overanalyzing it, but I'm trying to be more methodical this time around. Are there better techniques or videos out there?
