Yes, I finally went to the ER. I was completely upfront with the doctors. I told them I use a 1 1/2" needle and they confirmed the depth of the infection with a ultrasound.

I had filled out some paperwork for a person who wanted and was going to pay me for a sample of what was in the injection site for some type of study.

Well, once they did the ultrasound and stuck a needle in it to drain it, their was nothing in there to collect.

One of them chastised me for steroid use.

I then asked them how many smoked and then proceeded to chastised them for that. I also explained to them my age and why I did steroids and at what dosage I was doing them.

Pretty much shut them up and they went to work draining the abscess and started two IV's on me with two types of strong antibiotics.

I then was laid up on the couch for about 2 months and am lucky I was off work for that time. That thing drained for about two months and I had to continually wear a maxi-pad on it to absorb the stinky goo.

Usually with an abscess like that, the original injection site has already healed up. So the abscess has to drain somehow and what it does is a new hole will open up. I was very lucky it opened up where it did as in the pics.

I have read where the hole can open up anywhere and have seen pics of it. One unlucky soul had it open right down next to his butt hole and another down his leg by his balls.

Mine was right where we could manage it with ease thank goodness. As you can see the hole opened up more towards my outer thigh, which is away from the original injection site.

It was completely a **** up on my part. I was out working in the yard and was all sweaty and dirty when my brother came over.

He was picking up some gear for first time use. I went through the whole alcohol and disinfecting routine without actually doing it. I then stuck myself without cleaning the site first.

The rest is history and a lot of pain. I have always been careful and clean about injecting, I just screwed the pooch one time and paid the price.

BIG lesson learned.
