[QUOTE="BigTex, post: 224757, member: 43589"] Here is my theory, pain and most likely the knots are caused when oil/solvents are absorbed by the body and crystals are left behind. Because, short esters (propionate or acetate) have a much higher melting point, 118-123 °C/244-253°F, they leave harder, more painful crystals. The longer esters (ie. test enanthate) have a lower melting point of 34-39°C/93-102°F. So at body temperature TE easily melts As well, Benzyl alcohol (BA) is used at 1% – 2% as a preservative and antiseptic. Some people are have extreme reactions to BA causing inflammation and pain. Some people find relief in using short esters by warming the oil first before using. More.....testosterone cypionate has a melting point of 98 - 104ºC/208-220ºF......could this be the solution to the 1st question? Perhaps warming the vial before you inject will help avoid any pain and lumps? [/QUOTE]
