About myself/me

"I believe Andy has misheard, Mr. Congressman, on his comment about myself/me using HGH, which never happened," Clemens said.

Can I use 'me' here?

Thanks

You are quoting. I'm sure he did not say myself/me . Either he said myself or he said me .

You can use me there, and in fact you should! Native speakers sometimes substitute the -self forms for the usual object forms, but they don't pass English exams that way!

I forgot to say that about my using ... is also a very good way to say it.
