How to Reduce PIP from L-Car Injections?

^^^^ what’s wrong with acetly l car injection at 2ml into shoulder 1 gram

Nothing wrong with it. 2 week loading phase 200 mg of each 55 lbs bw. I started yesterday at 800 mg l.csrnitine (400 before and 400 after workouts).
I train fasted right now so I take 2 IU of humulin r with the lcar. After 2 weeks I’ll stick with 400 without the insulin. Well See what benefits it have. I’ll hope for some fatloss and ar upregulation. However there are much more benefits to it!

Been injecting L-Carnitine for about a month and a half. First 2-3 weeks was doing 500mg 3x/wk, then bumped to 800mg daily. PIP has been constant and barely tolerable.

  • Shoulders do okay, but can only handle about 1ml volume
  • Ventro glutes and Dorso glutes do well.
  • Lats are not fun - radiates pain through shoulders down to wrists… feels like carpal tunnel.
  • Quads, RIP if you inject them.
  • SubQ, enjoy that welt for the next month.

I use a thera-gun pre and post injection to loosen the area up - and for about 8 hours after injection, it still feels like a bad muscle cramp. Anyone actually been able to manage the 200mg/55lb dosage long-term? How? I’m considering dropping the L-Car as I don’t know if it’s worth the PIP tbh.

Drop the LC and run the test. Judge the effects. Right now you are combining the Test + LC, maybe a good risk reduction strategy to make those that arent truly persistent give up on both?

Your receptors are great. Drop the LC and judge the TC. One thing at a time. If it was me.

If I can’t figure out how to reduce L-Car PIP I will.

How would one determine this?

Looked at your picture. They are functional. Add the TRT+ and voila.

I didn’t, and eventually quit taking it. I have seen some ppl add lidocaine to ease the pain

I think my issue is that I’m still new to injecting and I’m probably doubling down on the unpleasantness of virgin(ish) muscles and L-Car.

I’m going to stick with it for a bit - if it doesn’t get better, I’ll probably end up dropping it.

I’ve heard some sources adjust the acidity to make it less painful… sounds somewhat legit based on reviews. Will cross that bridge when I get to it.

how did you made it bro.?? do you have any procedure>/?
