Hi Im glad i found this site.I had a minor injury to my shoulder no tear a sprain.doctor gives me a Kenalog 40 20 mils with lidocane.I went home ate went to sleep for 3 hours and woke up like the elephant man.I didnt want the injection and I asked )being a nurse) any adverse or side effects.or interactions he said ''no'' now my liver functions are high as hell,sugar,B/P skyrocket,and now after 5 weeks of my face no better the crying jags are starting.at least now I have a bit of an appitite.I lost12 pounds,and wasnt able to walk more tha 2 blocks .I sleept and tried to fight the depression. and gained back 5.lbs.I feel a bit better. MY GP I trust.Doctor is running alot of liver function tests and he says I look lik Cushings syndrom I agree hump back moon face.I just wrote a new book for kids and was about to go on a book tour.I dont look any better and Im mentally about to lose it.The ER. ignored the fact that the insert I gave them did blood tests ekg etc.and passed the buck to my GP,I was getting the runaround.G/P he gave me a mild B/P med to keep down the 214/130.If I look like this for the length of time Im reading,or never look the same,a major lawsuit is going to go down.This is a workmans comp case.HELP
