No scarring. I would switch out the places on my stomach every injection. Bruising yes, scarring no.

Kathryn, I know!! Chemo brain is real 🥴 It's also been over 6 years since I was on Velcade. It really did help when that nurse iced the injection site before she gave me the shot. I also can't believe people let them give it in their arms. I have no fat there, but lots in my belly😉

I had bruising and red spots from Velcade too. But they went away😉

I forgot that the nurses put a glove with ice on my belly before my Velcade shot. That really helped the bruising
