Has anyone had the 2 files injected into one site and what was the reaction. I am not happy with them even contemplating injecting both files into one site.
Hi Faye. You may well be the first in NZ to get Azercitidine - I beleive I was number 3 in Auckland &due to start my 17th Cycle. I ussually have all Injections in my stomach (1 each side) & apply Calamine Cream (available at most Parmaccies) immediately after injections.
