A MyMyelomaTeam member shared their experience with injection site changes: "I started to receive Velcade (bortezomib) injection in the abdomen and had a lot of pain all around the belly. Now I get the injection right below the shoulder and have no side effects or pain."

If you're experiencing stomach issues with your injections, talk to your doctor. They may be able to adjust your injection site, modify your treatment plan, or recommend ways to manage these symptoms. Never stop or adjust medications on your own without consulting your healthcare provider first.
