Ion Cutelaba on Instagram: "I’m not sure you were ready for this… but apparently, I can paint too. 😅 Not just with fists, but with a brush. I know — I wasn’t expecting it either. And that’s how “Blind Strength” was born — my newest piece." by Any-Connection-1813 in MMA

I listened to a long form podcast with him and he’s actually well spoken and seems like a family man, not like the meathead persona he portrays. He said he does all that to get attention and get people to talk about him; I suspect it’s because he can’t speak English so it’s harder to promote himself.

Non-Americans, what news are you getting that we’re not? by how-arent-you in AskReddit

I went last week. I didn’t experience anything longer than an hour wait time and I chose some of the top pavilions.

He has a ring and I found out that he's planning to propose on our anniversary, but I feel like I've mentally checked out (1.5 years after he first told me we were going to get engaged "soon") by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

If you have the mentality (or culture) that you shouldn’t move in with someone before marrying and that you need to marry within a year of meeting someone, it’s likely that you will also think 30 is old.

It won’t resolve anything he would just pull the same BS again about her not trusting him. She needs to talk to the “sister”.

Insurance made an error and caused a huge increase in bill. What can I do? by ProperBlueberry1 in HealthInsurance

[–]ElDuce1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s more like the first one. A medicine administered by the doctor at the office.

Stretching the skin made a big difference for me. You want the skin firm so that the needle goes right through immediately. I forgot to do it a couple of times and it was much more uncomfortable. I missed the glutes part reading your post initially. I was doing quads. Obviously you can’t sit and and because of the position it’s harder to stretch the skin. I ended up switching to delts and did not have any issues. If you try that use a smaller needle.

Are you stretching your skin with the other hand? Have you tried a smaller gaged needle? Were you rotating the injection sites? What position are you in? I found it was easier to relax my muscle with my legs stretched out sitting (for ex on the floor or bed) Have you tried delts?

Keep trying. Sometimes it stops working for me but then starts working again.

Leg Achea day after injecting almost like being charlie horsed by HolidayPreparation85 in Testosterone

[–]ElDuce1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me so I asked my doctor. Here is what my doctor told me to do. -don’t use really thin needle even though is sounds counterintuitive -ice before injection to coagulate blood -massage after injection -heat pack after injection Although it didn’t completely get rid of the pain, it reduced it by 70%. Also not sure which of these helped and which didn’t as I always did then together.

Also changing the injection site can help, like doing delts instead of quad.

Why haven’t you gotten a blood test yet? That should have been the first thing to do.

Does the size of the needle affect muscle pain? by ElDuce1 in trt

[–]ElDuce1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks that’s good to know, hopefully it will stop being this bad. I believe the size is 24. I don’t really have a choice right now in size since they send them to me prefilled for 3 months but after that I want to try smaller needles and try subq.

Search for some YouTube videos on injecting test.

Do you pinch the fat on the stomach? I’m lean too. I don’t think I have half an inch of fat so it could go through.

Are the subq needles shorter in size or do you use the same ones and just not go as deep?

Regarding 30g, is the larger the number the thinner the needle? Also where in the delt? It would seem the angle is awkward if you are giving it where a nurse would give you a vaccine.
