I have been injecting 0.75ml daily (containing 0.25-0.5g/day BPC157 + 0.75g/day TB500) for almost 2 months with absolutely no subQ issues. Just alternating left/right belly fat. Was so good that I felt like I did not even have to alternate left/right (but I did). It would be perfect flat skin after say 30-60 mins.

All of a sudden, halfway my cooled reconstituted vial (which is for like a week), I get red swelling & painful like bitten by an insect or allergies, with a bit of a lump/swelling which stays like 3-5 days and hurts a bit upon touch, EVERY new injection. And I am rotating to other areas now, but the irritation happens everywhere.

I thought my reconstituted vial got contaminated in the fridge, but now with the newly reconstituted vial I again get same the thing. I'm using the same supplier/brand all this time.

1) Did this happen to anybody else? Is this normal?
2) Did I just get allergic to this stuff?
3) Or do I suddenly have bad batches (of either the bac water or the powder vials)? What could be bad?

Never happened to me with that combination but it is possible to all of a sudden get an allergic reactions to something you've never had a reaction to in the past.
It is possible you have a bad batch, have you tried different batch numbers if available of your peptide and water?
Have you tried taking the two peptides individually and at different sites to determine if it's a specific peptide?
And just to make sure you are using alcohol to clean the vials and skin and using new needles?

Thanks!
- Yes, swiped vials/skin with alcohol and new needles.
- Yes, rotated around various spots on my belly, all far apart.

I am experimenting now with lower dosage per shot, and/or with more bac water, to see if that helps.
Then later I could report back on which dosages & ml I did get or not get irritation. If anybody has this in future.

I over-reacted above, it's mostly dose dependant. I tried several dosages now, shot each dosage at least 5 times, to know its repeated effect.

Self-tested results:
- 0.25g BPC157 + 0.75g TB500 (1g sum) in 0.75ml bac water >> belly skin normal again in 1 hour (red/irritated for max 1h)
- 0.5g BPC157 + 1g TB500 (1.5g sum) in 0.75ml bac water >> belly skin normal again in 1 day (red/irritated for max 24h)
- 0.75g BPC157 + 1.5g TB500 (2.25g sum) in 0.75ml bac water >> belly skin normal again in 7 days (red/irritated for max 7 days, and stinging, and for 3-4 days can even be lumpy/swollen, or blue around the redness).

I will try same as above in 1ml & 1.25ml in the next 2 weeks.
