PGW Test E

Currently 6 weeks in a test only cycle. Went from 150mg a week PGW test C TRT to 400mg a week test E from PGW. Taking 114mg EOD injecting shoulders and upper legs. I know test E hurts but I had 3 shots where my leg and shoulders swole up so bad it looked like a liter of synthol was injected and the pain was unbearable. I switched to test C and same dose but I can feel a huge difference. When I’m test E I feel amazing, super energy and recovery just amazing but when going back to test C I feel normal again. Personally for me I think I like the effects of test E but the swelling and pain is killing me.
Any tips on how to fix this or should I maybe try a different brand of Test E? I even tried warming the oil in the insulin syringe before injecting them getting into a hot shower and rubbing the shit out if it and no luck.
Any advice would be great. Thanks guys

Any specific reason why you doing EOD Shots as opposed to once or twice a week ?
I don't see the point in taking Enanthate EOD

I cannot even imagine how much more it would hurt taking a bigger dose of test E twice a week

The PGW Test E is known for causing injection pain in some, but usually not for the small injections you are taking. Most reports of painful injections I get is when people inject in delts and quads. It's less of a problem when injecting in the glutes. Where in the legs do you inject exactly?
What I find most interesting is that you notice a difference between Test E and Test C, I only use Test C and like it allot. Can you elaborate on the differences you notice?

On test E I literally feel like superman, non stop energy and positive all day. Wake up and I’m wide awake. Complete opposite on test C. It is very strange but this is the second time it’s happening. I used E for TRT for a while and it was great for 3 months, went to C and felt lazy and tired again so for some reason I react great to E but the inflammation and pain is horrible no matter what I do. And I really don’t want to stop using E

There you go, try glutes and report back.

Interesting. For how long have you tried Test C? Long enough for it to start working?
Wonder if it might be an allergy to the Cyp ester... many of the issues people have with Prop is from the actual ester attached to the Test molecule.

I used to do delts but the scar tissue build up using a harpoon eventually became a problem.
The only issue using the insulin pin is the drawing time. Backloading seems a waste so I draw and pin with the same needle, no pain, no issues.

I ran a full cycle Cyp before at 350mg a week. This time I did the test E for 3 weeks and changed to Cyp now for 3 weeks and can feel a difference with same dosage. Also when I tried test E for TRT for 3 months coming from C at same dose I could feel a difference. Then getting off E and switching to C I felt a drop again. But funny thing is that on C my testosterone levels are only a little lower than on E so I know both are working but E makes me feel overall better

Oupa thanks
Ja it’s strange, I love the feeling of E so I started last night mixing half my dose of E and the other half C to finish the cycle and see how these shots feel. So far a tiny little pip but tomorrow is shoulder shot and will see how that goes

I usually opt for 24G at 1 inch in quads. Delts I go for 25G 1/8 even if its EOD.
If you keep doing what you've been doing
You gonna keep getting what you've been getting...

You could do IM with insulin pins but you need to really push it in (the delts work well for this)
But I use insulin for subq
No idea how you pin EoD in the delts with a harpoon

But pinning Test E SubQ with insulin needle will give you a small lump and its gonna hurt at any amount.
But OP is doing TRT so I cant really help much. I mix my shots usaully with BCom and B12 weekly to take off the edge.

It never hurts for my on SubQ.
IM with larger amounts very occasionally hurts, but maybe I am just lucky.
I also dont really get much lumping, could just be super lucky.
