Hey Mate, I rotate the area shot - to the extent that in fact I shot on my side for the first time rather than front belly for 2 of these shots - I was injecting fast though. Each of the areas has progressively improved with the redness almost gone on shots after 3 days. But small lumps remain - though they seem to be reducing.

Now if those shots are consecutive then it wouldn't be a problem but if you wait a couple hours before the next injection then bacteria has had a chance to settle on the needle thus introducing it to the inside of your body. There are many things that could be going wrong right now so you will just have figure these things out. Make sure to try and use a sterile technique when injecting.

Yup, am using 1 slin pin for 5 shots for convenience. As above re hot and red. have done the shots with perfect sterility (or as perfect as possible)
thanks for your comments lads - if you have further thoughts let me know?
