The timing of this thread is perfect. I have a similar question. I started injecting back in February, with the urologist starting me at 15 and then 20 units. I'm up to 30 now, but I think I got a bad batch. I talked to the pharmacist who does the compounding, and he says that Trimix is safe up to 1...

Well, another failed attempt today. I used a 5/16" needle. I got a little plump, but not a lot. I tried to feel around for the best spot, one where it was behind the halfway point and where it felt like I would be going into the spongy tissue. Usually when I hit the right spot, I feel a burning...

Did you insert the needle right up to the tip of the syringe?

I think I've found the problem. The syringes the doc prescribed for me have 1/2" needles. Based upon advice in this forum, as well as from my experience giving my ex-wife injections for allergies, I inserted the needle right up to the point where the syringe was in contact with the skin. Someon...

Thanks for the replies. I asked because I've been having problems hitting the right spot. It's happened a few times lately, including on a date. I'm pretty sure that the problem is that my penis shrinks up too much, and it's too easy to miss the corpus cavernosum. Yesterday I tried getting a little ...

I've seen a lot of guys mention that they draw a little blood after inserting the needle, just to make sure they're in the right spot before injecting the Trimix or other medicine. How does the blood tell you you're in the corpus cavernosum and not into skin or something else? Wouldn't you get blood...

I'm sure I just didn't hit the right spot or didn't inject far enough. I was nervous, as this is only the third time since my divorce 14 months ago, and it was a first date. It didn't help that she had a yippy little dog that was up on the bed with us. It also didn't help that she didn't look like w...

Well, I had an important date today, and didn't get an erection. I thought I'd injected into the proper spot and even pressed the syringe in to dimple.

Very embarrassing.

It's the correct syringe, I just didn't use the correct terminology. It was 22 units. The syringe holds 100 units, or 1 ml. It's ticked off in units of .02, with major marks at 10, 20, 30, etc. I'm going to give it a couple of days, and then try again, watching very carefully how I insert the needle...

Thanks for the reply, tomas1. I didn't try drawing blood. My doc never said anything about that, although I've seen it mentioned here many times. I also though I may have hit the wrong spot, but my doc said as long as I hit the corpus tissue that's all that's needed. I'll try drawing a little blood ...
