Vidaza Shot injection locations

Roger,
My husband, Ron, receives injections in his stomach - he tolerates them really well... but, another man we grew to know was very thin & didn't have as much fatty tissue on his body as my husband had... so, he would alternate sites each day... he had it in his inside, upper thigh and in the back of his upper arm, in the fatty tissue. He asked the nurses and they advised him of where he could receive it. Now, the nurses ask him where the target of choice is, daily, before injecting him.

Good Luck, Cindy
