First PGE1 injection at office - 2nd dosage advice

My 2 injections so far have been a miss. I was given 28g 1/2" BD.
I did not get a lump or bruising. I must be going too deep, and hit urethra.

I am thinking of making another appointment with the FNC-BC at the urologist. I did not see the Dr, but he did give a good shot, and explained things well. I thinking I am just so nervous, and pushing the needle too deep.

That might be my problem, not keeping the angle towards middle.
He said to leave 1/4" of the needle showing, so I'm pretty sure I have it at more of an angle to see the needle depth.

Since both missed injections has not left any bruising, or swelling , and I just injecting into flesh?

Part of my successful technique is to insert the needle, draw back the plunger--if you see blood, then you've hit the sweet spot; if not, then you've missed the mark--and then push the plunger to inject the mixture. My uro told me that and it works every time. Good luck.

What needle are you folks using....I use a BD UIltra-fine II which has a 5/16" length needle.. I find the plunger to be resisting so I pull the plunger back and forth several times before I fill the cylinder. I use Trimix and draw up 20-25 units. I warm the Trimix by placing the needle in my armpit for a minute or so and then inject close to the base of the penis at 11 or 2 and at about 75-80 degrees. I press the tip of the syringe into the flesh of the penis until I feel somewhat of a twinge which I feel tells me I have hit the correct spot. Nine out of ten times this works. Any comments? Am I following a similar procedure to others injecting?

Thanks for your comments bldoink....
We are using a similar syringe, mine....30 gauge, 1 ml, 5/16" 8mm.

Yes, I too vary the spot and alternate, but more frequently use the right side....perhaps because I'm right handed.

I'm very careful to not puncture a vein, but a few months ago I had a situation where I had slight swelling and bruising at the injection point for several days. My success rate too is fairly good.

I've never followed your procedure of depressing the plunger all the way in and then draw it back out past where I want it and then inject air into the vial.....I've never thought of that being the reason for plunger resistance. I've always thought of the resistance being the plunger's tightness to the edge of the vial. I will experiment with your method.

I very much appreciate your response! Cheers!

PGE1 alone at this dosage was not great. I went to .95 on syringe. It was just enough to have sex, but no where near a quality erection. I almost did not even try, because I did not think it was enough for penetration.

He now has me trying trimix 30/1/10 and to start at .40

I am not sure if I should maybe do a .20 first.
Considering my reaction to PGE1 alone at that dosage SHOULD the .40 be a safe first injection?
