Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.  I gave myself my first low dose Estradiol Valerate today in the vastus lateralus, and I noticed that as soon as the injection was finished and I pulled out, I felt a slight head rush that lasted less than a minute.  Everything went as it was supposed to, aspiration, placement etc., so what I'm thinking is that it was one of two things:  because it was my first one at my home I probably built up a bit of mental hype about the whole matter and it was just adreneline.  Second, many many years ago in my using life I used meth constantly by way of syringe, so it may have just been that playing out of the mental scenario my brain was expecting.  Once it was over I never felt anything again, so I dont believe that it could have been placed in between muscles.   I had settled on the 23g x 1" and my legs are kind of skinny so there is no doubt all went welll.  Just curious, thanks.  Dani

I've been getting injections in my butt for the last 3-4 months, EV as well and never experienced this. Maybe as you said, it's all in the head.

I use the thigh and have never had this except for the first time. It was so excited I could have won the Boston Marathon. As long as there was no return into the syringe you should be just fine Sis. Enjoy the ride!!!

Thanks, I do believe it was in my head, I had built up so much focus around that one event that it was mostly the adreneline and partly the other.     Dani

P.S. Please read my new post in coming out, cool news.

Just got off the phone with my nurse and she confirmed that all is well.  Yesterday I was left to only knocking around in my own head as I was past office hours, so thanks to the help I got from here    Dani
