I would just say, “Been there and done that.” I have had Vidaza injections (130 mg), but was always given nausea med about 15 minutes before. I have found that all nurses are not equal. That is to say that initially I had post-injection bruises. Then I found one nurse among the six or so who had previously given the injection without any after-effects. So, my advice would be, try another nurse. When I asked the competent nurse what was the difference in how she did her injections without bruising, she replied that she didn’t know what made the difference. So, move on! All nurses are not equal!
