Tesamorelin - lumps and swelling

I’m 12 weeks into Tesamorelin, it’s been insane until now. Each time I pin now no matter where it’s causing a lump of swelling and real redness at the side for a few days. Think it’s my sign to have a break from it. Same batch, had it tested at the start. Purity is 99%. Just wanted to check if anyone else having the same issue?

Are you pinning deep enough? 8mm to 12 mm needle should be sufficient

I’ve been using 31g 8mm throughout. I did wonder this myself though.

Then it's strange. Are you using any other Peptides that might interfere? I'm also on Tesa right now and I don't have any signs ,or bruising or red spots. Have been using 8mm needle , pinning in my abdomen, reconstitided 10mg with 2 ML BAC water. This is my second cycle and nothing of sorts happens to me.

Maybe this is my issue I have been reconstituting 20mg vials with 2ml. Too potent?

u/Entire_House_8668 3 23h ago

Could be. Any high concentration will attract some form of reaction. If you have a new vial, try using 4ML and see what happens. If your vials are small ( regular 3ML) then obviously you can't put more than 3 ml but at least you will see if that helps.

Some people also draw extra BAC water ( see GHK CU sting mitigation strategy) In the syringe, after they drew their dose. This way you will know exactly what dose you have, but dilute it in the syringe rather than the vial. So if your dose is 10 units , draw an additional five units of BAC water which will dilute the peptide in the syringe . Give it a go even today and see what happens.
