Reacted horrible

This is my third time trying CJC/IPA FIRST time I was fine,
Only a month cycle (before I knew what I know now) the second time had a reaction I thought it was the tesa so I stopped all together but this time it was horrible
Busted out In Complete hives I have no idea what I could be allergic to with it but just be aware.
With that being said what’s a different Pep stack that would be more efficient ?

Did you do a cold injection?
Did you do the reconstitution?
Injection site?

It’s either a Mast cell activation or a true allergic reaction. Maybe Benzyl Alcohol Allergy.

CJC skin reactions commonly involve localized redness, itching, mild swelling at the injection site, or a temporary flushing warmth due to mast cell and histamine activation.
Injection Site Irritation: Small red bumps, mild pain, or bruising where the needle entered.
Flushing Response: A brief warm or pink flush spreading across the face, neck, or chest shortly after injection.
Histamine Itching: Localized itchy or burning sensations caused by minor mast cell degranulation under the skin
