I am considering Bicillin shots -- so many folks have had good success and I think it crosses the blood brain barrier better than orals. It's also pretty safe. I've seen a good many posts about process and pain. But I'm most concerned about scarring since it's like injecting a golf ball into the muscle. If you've had Bicillin injections, did you find that they caused permanent tissue scarring?

there was a pretty identical post yesterday i think. The general opinion was no scarring.

Yes, sorry, for some reason (probably user error) that posted twice yesterday. I've read a few older posts about folks getting bumps and tumors from the shots (one member who needed surgery to remove it). Very concerning.

I have been getting 3 a week since July 2010 and have not had any issues or scarring so far.

I was doing 3/ week for 4 months and I was fine. You want to stay on target when injecting. I did have some bumps and bruises, but they were temporary. The shot has to be done very slowly. It isn't pleasant, but it was VERY effective for me.
