Owen M., welcome to the forum. It's extremely important that the nurses vigorously roll the Vidaza vertically and horizontally right up until the time of injection. Otherwise, the Vidaza will crystalize inside the syringe. The injection sites generally stay sore for 3-4 days after getting the shots. I started my first round of Vidaza in December, and by the time the golf season started in April, I had no problems and I golfed right up until the week before transplant (many times playing the same day I had injections). During that time I was walking the 6 mile course.
