Hi, I am 26 year old mail, I received an "injection" of "kenalog" about 5+years ago. I hate to say but the stuff is still affecting me. I am not lying or exaggerating I am telling the truth. I am totally logical and don't imagine stuff plus all the side effects and everything is totally obvious you don't have to be a genius to figure it out.
Insomnia
Depression
Anxiety
Nightmares
Hairloss on head Hairgrowth in nostrils and arms
Tiredness
Muscle wasting and weakness.
Irregular heart beats/ heavy heart beats
Swelling of the throat/ sinus'
Fatigue
Disorientation
Itching on the body especially the neck
Acne
Divets or small holes in face and nose now I look bad.
Slower reflexes.
Stomach problems
Other side effects that I am not willing to list
Discoloration of the skin
Probably others I haven't remembered
I would just like to say I feel bad for ANYBODY who has had this happen
to them. And I think the nurse might have gave me a way higher dose
than normal because the side effects have been so far lasting.
If there was a way to broadcast this to more people I would. Don't get a
kenalog injection whoever you are. I am going to try chlorophyll as another person mentioned. I do believe there is a God and do believe he will wipe out all suffering on earth in the near future. If you are suffering please pray to God his name is Jehovah and pray in the name of his son Jesus and He will hear YOU. Revelation 21:3,4 " With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” "

I am a 44 yr old female. I have been on Zocor for 2 yrs. I have never had high cholesterol. I have a family history of heart disease and after my 44 yr old brother had a heart attack and the transplant, my doctor put me on Zocor as a precaution. I have had problems over the 2 yrs and have been to the doctor many times only to be dismissed as Oh, I need to lose weight, I need to get out of the house more, I need to exercise, It must be my depression....and on and on. I have never had a kidney or liver test in 2 years. I never knew I needed on and my doctor never tested me. I have over 30 symptoms/side effects of Zocor. I only looked into the side effects after my mother-in-law had muscle break down, an intestinal blockage and a ruptured bowel and almost died a few weeks ago. I couldn't believe what I found on this site. I immediately stopped the Zocor. I started to feel better right away but it was short lived. i felt great for 1 week and then it all crept back in on me for a week and then this last week I am back in bed with dibilitating fatigue and muscle weakness. I will now list my symptoms/side effects.

I feel like I am 100 yrs old. I have had nights that I thought I was dying and had panic attacks that I would not survive the night. I have 3 young children to take care of. I can not even put conditioner on my hair or shave my legs in the shower because I have to get out so quickly due to exhaustion. I have to lean on one elbow at the sink to brush my teeth. When I get out of the shower I can barely breath, I am wheezing, my heart is pounding and I feel like I will collapse so I have to get out and rush to my bed. I home school my 3 children and most days we do school in my bed. Everything is an effort. I can never plan anything because most days I am incapacitated. I may have a good day and can actually go out to dinner or Walmart once or twice a month and then I can't wait to get back home and get in bed because I am so worn out. I don't see how this drug can actually remain on the market. I am so angry and upset that my doctor never told me this could happen. When I asked about side effects I was told "oh no there aren't any really". My doctor never ran tests on me. I just can't believe this. I go tomorrow for blood work and I go to the doctor on Mon to discuss the results and all of my problems. I am so afraid that I have permanent damage to my muscles and possibly my heart. I went tot he doc months ago with shortness of breath and swelling and she did an EKG and said my heart was fine and I was not having congestive heart failure. I fear I was and still am! It is not normal to be out of breath just brushing your teeth and combing your hair. I hope we all get the answers we are looking for and that we all recover from this horrible drug. God bless you all!
