Shots or infusions? I've only had infusions (Venofer). Takes about 3 hours to

get them done. Pain is only that of having an IV. I got one every week for 4

weeks, and then am usually good for a couple of years. I do have a reaction a

few hours after the first infusion (nausea, vomiting, chills, aches), but it

goes away after a few hours, and I never get that reaction with infusions 2 - 4.

Good luck!

She said shots so I'll find out today.  Thanks for the info in case it turns out to be infusions.
