Cortisone Shot
Posted by Tracy (Oklahoma) on 09/13/2023

Please help! I had a cortisone shot done in both knees two months ago and now the side effects are insane. So far, I have: heartburn, menstrual periods stopped, daily headache, weird joint pain that comes and goes, shaking/tremors, hot flashes and then the chills. I am going to several doctors and am almost broke at this point. A urgent care doctor believes I'm having an allergic reaction but doesn't know what to do but let the steroids get out of my system. The PCP I saw basically thinks I'm insane and just in menopause because of the flushing. Nobody believes me when I say all of these problems started a few days after the shots. I have a bone spur on both kneecaps, which was why I took the shots. NEVER AGAIN!! Please help me find a way to detox or something. Thank you!!

SEVERE PAIN after STEROID CORTISONE injection DEPO MEDROL

Immediately after an injection in my tailbone, I started having terrible pain in the tailbone and surrounding area. Also tingling feeling in the back of the legs.

Due to pain, I have to lie in bed all day.

Any ideas on what to do?

Thank you
