Just a quick update, almost a week after my first injection
Nothing really to report other than right ball is a great deal larger than the left, and still quite hard, both are sensitive if I squeeze them, but otherwise no aches... If the right wasn't still swollen and hard I'd do a second injection, but it is so I shan't!. Now it's just a waiting game to see what happens next...

It doesn't take much, just a few germs and you've got an infection. It's strange like that. I've had pretty big wounds before that healed fine, like the time I tore my hand open and had 14 stitches. Then there's the annoying little scratch or cut you didn't even know you had that flares up with infection.

Just done my second course of injections a week after the first...
total of 1ml but this time 60% Calcium Chloride 40% alcohol
Two injections in each ball at different sites, not sure the injections were an equal total of .5ml each as one ball is smaller than the other, and I injected a little, then pushed the needle in further and injected a bit more.
Obviously separate needles were used for each injection and I used a further needle to draw the alcohol and ccl from the bottles. Also used plenty of alcohol wipes. A little bit of blood when I withdrew but that was wiped away with the wipes and were just exit punctures.
Balls were banded with an elastic band so the skin was tight but not constrictively so.
At the moment just a dull ache

Thanks for the update ianjonbar. I had initially planned to go about this similar to the way you are (slow and steady), so I'm very curious to see how things work out for you.
I'm at 63 days since injecting 2.5 ml calcium chloride into each testicle, followed up with .5 ml injections on around day 45 and day 55. Each subsequent injection was significantly less painful for me. Libido is diminished but still there. My injections have just been the 30% calcium chloride solution, no alcohol. If I decide to do additional injections, I'll get some high proof alcohol to along with the calcium chloride.

High Hopper44 - sounds like a plan , but do keep the subsequent injections small as you have done so far.
Well it wasn't quite the night from hell last night, but it certainly wasn't pleasant - pain ration 4-5/10 , I think I've injected again too soon. Didn't feel anything very much prior to bedtime but then I felt as if I'd been kicked in the guts, paracetamol didn't do very much, and I didn't really get very much sleep! Quite a bit of pain in my abdomen and balls hyper sensitive, also lower back niggling, couldn't get settled at all. This morning I've found some stronger pain killers and the pain seems to have moved from my abdomen to my balls .... walking around like an old man at the mo lol. Thankfully I've got the day off so I'm hoping by tonight things will have eased a bit more .............. lying on the sofa propped up with cushions at the moment and it's probably the most comfortable I've been since last night .... Food intake has been a cup of tea and a banana so far, am really not hungry

Feeling a lot brighter this morning
Spent most of yesterday either in bed or on the sofa snoozing, felt completely washed out which isn't surprising given the night before. Was sick once after drinking some water, but it was only fluid that came up.
Abdominal pain completely gone though my balls are very sensitive and painful if they rub against anything. Weird thing is I've completely lost my appetite, after the banana I had a few more teas and a mug of soup yesterday, this morning so far just a banana.
Find I have to be a little careful stretching or bending or sitting down / standing back up .... but at least I'm not shuffling round like an old man any more !

Just a further quick update
Went into work (everyone thinks I have food poisoning from my facebook posts lol) and lasted until lunchtime when I had to come home and go back to bed ... just felt totally exhausted .... feeling a bit better tonight, though still get the odd spasm in my abdomen and can't touch my balls ...
Think I did the second injection too quickly after the first...

Some of the injected material may have worked up the vas deferens and into the lower abdomen, or even into the prostate, or bladder.
Or, hopefully not, a bacterial infection has developed.
If you start to develop a fever, chills, and the pain does not lessen, or especially if it gets worse, nothing but medical attention will get rid of an infection.
If you don't tend to an infection, the consequences are very serious.
Hopefully you are just suffering from some pain from the injections doing wht you wanted them to do.

Hi Nullorchis
Feeling much better again today and the abdomenal pains have gone so I suspect you are right some of the stuff got into the abdomen, no fever or chills though still feel a bit tired .... Appetite has returned so thankfully looks like it's just the injections doing their stuff !

Some of the nerves from the spermatic cords, and therefor the testicles, refer pain to areas in the abdomen. The abdomen is served by many of the same nerves as the spermatic cords. --FLO--
