  • eat_more_please — label the date too. you will not remember which vial is which by week 8 21:53
  • eat_more_please — anyone worked out a recon volume that puts 1mg on a round unit mark 22:02
  • new_here_nat — it should be completely clear with no floaters. cloudy means stop 22:21
  • eat_more_please — how do you all measure a half unit, or do you just not 22:26
  • impersonator_ip — the jewellery scale is a good habit but calibrate it, they drift badly 22:28

slightly off topic but my rule is one concentration for everything so i never have to think about it at 7am, ask me again in a month

it should be completely clear with no floaters. cloudy means stop

10mg vial
  + 1.0ml  -> 10.0 mg/ml   0.5mg =  5u   1mg = 10u
  + 2.0ml  ->  5.0 mg/ml   0.5mg = 10u   1mg = 20u
  + 2.5ml  ->  4.0 mg/ml   0.5mg = 12.5u (dont)
  + 5.0ml  ->  2.0 mg/ml   0.5mg = 25u   1mg = 50u

one unit is 0.01ml. 100 units is 1ml. everything else in this channel follows from that, thats just me

unrelated but i was wrong about this last year: it is fine to draw cold, it just stings more going in, anyway

EM

30mg in 3ml is 10mg/ml, so 5mg is 50 units. half the barrel, feels like a lot but its right

slightly off topic but i write the mg/ml on the vial with a sharpie the moment i reconstitute it

is a slightly cloudy solution ever ok or is that always a bin it
