I didn't want to do it either. I was scared of the whole experience. I took a pill to control nausea had the treatments and next week I go for my 7th round. Its a well tolerated drug. Same here in the U.S. If its not effective they stop but it usually takes 4 rounds to see results and before they make that decision. With transfusions you never get a full tank, but Vidaza or Dacogen can get your counts to normal or close to it and keep you away from the 5 hour blood transfusions.. Hope that helps.
