Left the peptide in a desk drawer for about a week. Doesnt seem to have had an effect. On a side note, just dosed and damn did it burn! Dont know whats up with that other than maybe alcohol still on the skin, or a dull needle. Never had it burn like that before.
Id say it was the alcohol not fully drying or else your using sterile water? I find that sterile water burns while injecting while Bac water never does.
Also I travelled for a month without keeping my mixed MT2 vial cool and it was just as effective I think this peptide is alot more resilient to temperatures than people think
That sting has happened to me a couple times as well. I thought it was the way I was injecting. Maybe I will give the alcohol a few seconds to dry as I inject immediately after wiping the area.
The important thing to getting to the bottom of why pain occurs during injection is to narrow down the options]
If the pain occurs at the point the needle enters the skin you can point the finger of blame at]
> the needle itself (make sure it’s always a new needle)
> the injection technique (pinch the skin and inject at a 90 degree angle)
If the pain occurs when the peptide is being administered, look at]
> the solution used to reconstitute (as BoB states above, sterile water usually stings, bac water or sodium chloride doesn’t)
> the temperature (some discomfort can be caused by a really, really cold solution)
With a fine gauge needle and correct technique you should be getting a completely pain free injection 98% of the time (as if you had your eyes closed you wouldn’t even realise the injection had taken place!).
The most important thing is making sure a needle is never used more than once. I’ll add an image below which shows the tip of a needle (magnified) that has been used multiple times, it’s pretty shocking.
