Unhappy Just adding info about side effects for me

I just finished my second round of Vidaza and had an unusual reaction, I think. My first couple of shots each session were in the abdomen, outside of the sensitive zone, supposedly. I developed shooting pains in my tummy and bad constipation each time. I was taking zofran pre-shots and one of the nurses mentioned that it was constipating, so I stopped it. Fortunatley, I haven't suffered nausea, but the stomach pains and constipation were severe. Any other similar experiences?
