pre loading pins

In my opinion you are comprimising the quality effectiveness and sterility of the gear by doing this. Its ok to preload a few days before but i just wouldnt preload your entire cycle there is just no need for the risks.

No, it's just a lot easier loading the pins Friday if Mondays are tough for me to get any ALONE TIME. If I only have a few minutes available to me I'd rather not feel rushed and make a mistake by dicking around with opening, drawing, preping, etc...
I'm not looking to preload a cycle, just help out my Monday's a bit...

I know what you guys are saying though... I'll probably just have to make time...


That's what I do.... sometimes I might even prep for 2 weeks... after I preload the pokers I put them in a zip lock bag. Yea, I know it's not the most sterile way but I don't have any free time to dick around with when I get off work. I've been doing it this way for 3 years and haven't had a problem yet.

Thanks BL

Do you prep from amps or vials?
If you prep from amps (like me), do you change needles after the draw or do you just keep the same needle on before tossing into the ziplock?

Dont prep too far in advance, there's a chance of the ba in your gear eating away at the rubber stopper in the syringe. I know folks who have had this problem...

Both

I ALWAYS use a different needle to suck. I'll use a 18guage to suck than a 22guage to inject... both are always brand new

I never thought about that... but I doubt such small amounts of BA could damage the rubber with 3weeks

Not 3 wks BL, some guys want to preload thier entire cycle, they reach for their stuff and find its either leaking or theres no pressure in the syringe.

I guess I'm lucky cause I only prep 2 weeks in advance :D
 
Also, wouldn't it eat through a vail with a rubber stopper? I know that's not what happens. Mybe it's a different type of rubber. :confused:
 
A couple years ago me and a friend ordered some IP cyp and on his list he said when you get the oil, to "preload into lotsa syringes". We did this and by the end of the cycle, when we injected, the oil would slide right past the rubber stopper. It was no big deal just had to squirt into new syrenge. That was also when his oils had alot more BA in them than they do now, so that could've been the reason. My point being is I think you would be fine doing it a week or so in advance like you were saying.
 
No matter what type of cycle I'm doing I preload 10 needle at a time, the reason I do 10 is because thats how many will fit into a car stereo face plate case, I also don't buy the fact that the gear will eat away at the rubber plunger, look at readyjects, multi dose vials.
 
reminds me of a friend of mine years ago who bumed some gel caps off of me and loaded a whole bottle of ref-b into them. Needless to say after awhile they were melted away. His planning ahead lost him the whole bottle...
 
2 weeks in advance

I've also pre-loaded syringes 2 weeks in advance with no problems. Easier that loading them eod or ed. Use a new needle for drawing and one for administration and you should be fine.
