and now I keep getting big lumps on my skin :( the process hurts a lot less but I still have a lump from my injection before last. I followed any advice I could find on avoiding this and still got another lump from my most recent injection. so lame.

    nah it’s deep in there and takes like a day and a half to show up. I am definitely injecting deep enough.

      same, i think i’m allergic to benzyl benzoate. sometimes my injection sites become sore for a few days too, but not necessarily after the injection, just randomly. but I haven’t had the chance to try a benzyl benzoate free vial or IM needles yet so idk. I know IM leads to weaker allergic reaction as opposed to subQ if you’re allergic to the solvent or carrier oil, so this is probably also the case with you.
