My skin reacted very badly to Vidaza. They tried my stomach and upper thigh area for the injections. It started with the red spots around the injection site, but then they started to ooze and itch and hurt, and they had to switch me to a IV form. I had an IV needle in my hand/arm for 5 days during the treatment and didn't have to deal with the injection pain as it was intravenous. But I still show a scar or burn mark from the injections in my stomach
The injection treatment is a faster office visit than the IV, with that you will have to sit there for an hour at least. My insurance didn't "cover" the IV, but after my bad reaction, they had no choice but to cover it, as it was doctors orders.
Remember to write down your questions to take with you when you go see the doctor, and then write down the doctors answers for a later time to recall what they said. There are no stupid questions, ask away!!
