Gear type + shots = Pain?

[blkturbo]

I've noticed a lot of talk about injection pain with certain brands or types of gear.

I haven't had many different brands (maybe 3) of esters over the past several yrs, but what I have noticed is that I can easily have a lot of pain from a given shot with one kind, and with the very next injection I literally may not feel a damn thing....all with the same bottle I'm saying.........

So, why do so many people blame the pain on specific types of gear, or name brands vs where they may have simply stuck the needle?

In my experience, I've noticed that if I get stuck closer to my pelvic wing (lateral glute region) I don't feel shit during injection.
With a shot closer in towards the midline of my glute, it usually burns.
And, with the shot that *doesn't* hurt on impact, I feel bruised the next day......with the shot that *does* hurt on impact, I may NOT feel bruised the next day.

I admit it's a strange pattern, but it is what I've noticed on a pretty regular/predictable basis.

So, what do yall think (as far as oils/esters go).......about the pain coming from either the location of impact vs the brand/type of gear being used?

With sustanon I can't feel my leg for a day...I got used to it and the "pain" did not bother me any longer....I've read on other posts that alcohol level, such as with the old spectro winny, are high and will cause the injection site to burn.....

IMO, it depends on: strenth of ester, what else it is mixed with and where you inject....just my 2cents

most batches are made differently, as in QV. They have different batches with different BA content all the time..

I could understand that, but the experiences I described are all based on the very same bottle......hmmm

Well, I've never injected myself, but my buds that have always throw darts
This one dude tried for me and he was trying to push nice and slow (too scared to "throw") and it was absolutely killing me........I was like "throw it like a dart or get tha f*ck off" lol

Like pulling a band-aid off (or equivelant), nice and quick
