hi all, me = 38 yo Australian mother of 3, married to Sri Lankan (very dark) chn also quite dark. Problem = me always spoiling outdoor fun with "have to go in now Mummy is getting burnt". so depressing! I have been reading forum for weeks and while I am very impressed with melanotan II and experimenters and helpfulness with info posted etc. I am still very confused, sorry. could any one help me with a couple of questions please, I would be so grateful. I am petrified, being a mum this is not the kind of thing I would usually even think about but I'm desperate, not so much for the tan tho that would be nice but for the sun protection so I can enjoy the outdoors with my family. 1. I have three 10mg vials of melanotan II in my fridge (not freezer), they have been there for 3 weeks while I try to figure out dosage and how much bw to add. are they still usable or have I left them too long? 2, I weigh 65 kg and want to start with a very low dose, say .5 mg. I don't mind if this takes a while, would rather be safe than sorry and sides might make caring 4 chn difficult. So how much bw do I add to each vial and then how much do I inject. I've viewed charts etc but still confused. please help, someone.

You should move this questions lower into the forum past these stickies.  You might not get many answers up here.  I would freeze 2 of those 3 vials.  To the 3rd, add 2 cc of bacteriostatic water.  Now 20 units will equal 1 mg, 10 units will equal .5 mgs.   Load the entire vial into syringes and freeze those.  Once you add water, it can lose potency in the fridge.

Thankyou so much for your reply. I have never been on a forum before and so "moving my questions further down in the forum past these stickies" is a foreign language to me but thanks for the advice on that , I will try to figure it out.  Also thanks for the info, I will put two vials in the freezer right now. My sister is coming over to help me tomorrow night, so I will load the syringes then and hopefully (if my courage doesn't fail me) I will do my first injection then also. Thanks again. When I figure out where to put it I will post a log of what I am doing so as to add to the pool of info on this forum. Never know what I do and my results may be useful for someone else.

I am Hope2Btanned's big sister and we are doing this together. We decided to keep posting logs as long as we are using melanotan II because the logs on this forum have been so helpful to us. Hard to get needles and syringes but eventually asked the pharmacist for a diabetic pack which contains 1ml syringes with fixed needles, medi swabs, and needle/syringe disposers. All too easy but each pack contains only 5 of each so I got 2 to start with and have now just bought another 2. These are the biggest packs available unless you join the Diabetes Association and then they are free for as many as you like (so I've been told). I think you may need proof that you are a diabetic though and I don't want to go there.
 
Day 1   1cc (ml) of BacWater into 10mg vial. Used 1ml syringe to draw up.25mg to inject. Very difficult to read accurately as markings very close together. Each mark = .2 so drew up that much easily but then to guage how much of the next mark is .05. Decided to guess and go maybe .2 one night and .3 the next to balance it out. Injected into right side of "belly fat". Nerves +++, pain 000, effecrs minor, facial flushing almost immediately lasting about 20min. We decided to inject at night after reading about sides of sleepiness. Then slept poorly.  Shocked
 
Day 2   Injected .25mg into left side of "belly fat". Again very little sides. Slept badly and had nightmares.  Tongue
 
Day 3   Injected early(7:30pm instead of 9:30pm) as family coming to visit. Not wanting to try injecting after a few drinks. Left side belly .25mg - effects, facial flushing lasting about 1/2 hr. No bad dreams but may be due to alcohol.  Wink
 
Day 4   Increased dose to .5mg injected into right side belly fat. A little easier to measure dose when drawing up to .5mg. Facial flushing as usual and nightmares. Zero nausia.  Roll Eyes
 
Day 5   Injected .5 into left side belly. Mild facial flushing lasting just a few minutes. Vivid nightmares and slept badly.  undecided
 
Day 6   Out to dinner with friends. Took loaded syringe with me and sneaked off to bathroom. Once locked in injected .5mg into right side belly. Minimal sides. Slept well but had had a few wines.  Cheesy  
 
Day 7   Very tired all day but could be the heat. Again injected .5mg into left side belly. Facial flushing but not immediate like usual. Happened about half an hour later but only lasted as long as usual. Slept really really badly and had vivid nightmares which kept waking me up and I would fall asleep right back into the same nightmare. Angry
 
I have not injected for tonight yet as it is a bit early. I am not noticing any results yet but my sister keeps saying she can see me browner. I think it is just because she knows. My sister started 3 days after I did but has had mostly the same sides except she sleeps well and has noticed a decreased appitite. I did not relate the two until she mentioned it but I have been starving hungry all the time since shortly after I started. Funny, these sides and how they affect people differently.
 
Next post in a few days. I will also post details of our supplier if my sister lets me. She may post logs instead of me so keep an eye out for Hope2Btanned. I am Hope2Btannedbigsis.

Hi again
I have been reading about the relationship (if any) between menalotan2 and heart failure. I have followed the threads and feel these shopuld have been made more prominant and easier to find. Are people really desparate enough to risk their lives to tan?
 
I started this journey to avoid skin cancer because I have a mild aversion to dying! After reading everything and anything (including the link to possible eye problems) I have no greater/fewer concerns than I did when I started.  
 
SO! to continue my Melanotan Diary.
 
Day 8.   Injected .5 into right side belly fat. Facial flushing in 10 min lasting about 15min. Then flushing on and off for 5 -10 min over about 2 hours. This is different. No alcohol to account for it. Still always hungry but no bad dreams.
 
Day 9.   .5mg into left side belly fat. Facial flushing after about 15min lasting about 20min. Stopped after that. Noticing freckles spreading and darkening but no significnt changes as yet. I have not been expecting any noticable changes yet anyway. Both arm maybe slightly darker but they are usually darker than the rest of me anyway. If the rest of me was that dark I would be satisfied. Still sleeping well.
 
Day 10. Injected .5 mg into left side belly fat, same side as last night (oops! got mixed up). Same as day 8. Repeated facial flushing on and off for about 2 hours. Sleeping well. Started a new job a few days ago and that may be tiring me out so I sleep better.  
 
Day 11. .5 into right side belly fat. Same facial flushing after about 5 min lasting about 15min and then no more. Sleeping well but as I have started a new job it may that which is tiring me out.  
 
Day 12.  Facial flushing almost immediatley after injecting .5 into right side belly fat (to compensate for mix up of sides day 9. I am now 5mg in. 4days @.25 plus 8 days @.5 = 5mg. Flushing lasted about 5min and that is when I went to bed so I don't know what happened after that. Still no noticable tanning. Have noticed that the only time I am starving hungry is on waking. Not hungry at all for lunch or dinner. Eat because it is time to eat but am making healthy choices.
 
Hope2Btanned (my sister) says she bought our melanotan II from Melanocorp.
 
Will post again in a few days. We have decided that we will keep posting long after we hit maintenance to let everyone know about any unexpected long term effects both good and bad.
 
When trying to lose wieght we use to say "See you lighter". Now we will say "See you darker".

My log is becoming too repetitious.  I will join some days together if nothing unusual has happened.
 
Day 13 - 14 - 15 No sides these days. Still not much appatite. Caught some sun and have gone very freckly - not exactly what I was after but I will persevere in the hope that it will blend later.
 
Day 16 Was worried about going to a party because I was staying over. I don't want people to know what I'm doing. Took the filled syringe, needle,swabs and needle disposer with me in my glasses case. At the usual time for injecting I went to the bathroom, did my thing and put the needle in the disposer back into my glasses case. Put the rubbish in the bin - No Problems.
 
Day 17 - 18 Caught some more sun but the weather here is so unusual for this time of year and it is cool and overcast. Normally it is roasting and " only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun". I am noticing that the freckles I had are much darker and I no have freckles where I didn't before. The freckle look is not what I signed up for. I think I have a slight tan on my back but my legs are definitely just all freckles. Rather disappointing but I push on. Still no sides except tiredness and lack of appatite.
 
Will not post as much detail from now on just brief descriptions and of course any significant changes to either my freckles or my sides.

I've split this log off of Endymion's post as this is a log and should be separate and on its own.

This log is great keep it up!
Two things though, is there any chance of some pics of your progress, maybe just your arms legs or stomach if you want to stay quiet...
also I've heard some people who get really freckly then goto a solarium once they've got 10-20 worth of melanotan in them and it evens out quite well, so maybe that'd be worth a thought.
 
Keep up the informative posts  Smiley

I had meant to post every few days or so as I really thought it might help some people. That all went out the wind!when my computer crashed about a month before Christmas and I had no money to do anything about it. Now I am up and running again and I will try to fill in the gap from Christmas till now as quickly but detailed as possible.
 
First up my sister quit and gave me her Melanotan II but since we had shared the batch between us I am only now equal to everyone else.
 
Around Christmas I was getting too many comments about how dark my skin was and was toldby more than one person that it made me look old!  Sad
 
I then reduced the dose to the same 0.5mg weekly instead of daily. After 8 weeks my tan began to fade so I have increased to twice a week and guess what? I have a lovely light tan. My freckles are still much darker than the rest of me but I can live with that.
 
Now I am thinking I would like to go just a little darker so will up the dasage to three times a week. I am now only about 20mg in and think that the higher dose may counteract any degradation caused by age and freezing.
 
I expect a lot of people will cry that I am not taking it often enough or in a high enough dose. Shocked Don't bother! I paid for the stuff and as long as I'm happy with the results I will use it any way I please thank you very much. Grin
 
There are many people who don't want family and friends asking too many questions or becoming overly concerned. My family thought I was spending time in the sun. Before Melanotan II I NEVER went in the sun. Half an hour was enought to turn me quite pink and 40 minutes would cause me to burn and peel. Now I spend about 40 minutes 2 or 3 times a week in the sun and never get burnt. This really helps to keep the tan an even colour as I was finding very dark patches in places. For example my toes were almost black and my knees were really funny looking at a dark brown that was out of place compared to the rest of me.
 
Naturally, at these very low doses I have zero sides and am very happy with everything. I never wanted to have a very dark tan, just to be able to go out with bare legs and not blind anyone not wearing sunglasses.
 
I will post again in about a month and look forward to receiving any feed back or questions.
