I to recieved a kenalog shot one time only for poison ivy. Acouple of months later noticed the hole in my hip followed by pain in my hip. The hole in my hip filled in about a year later . Although the pain was getting worse. I had x-rays and the doctor showed me the ball joint of my hip was also partially deteriorated and now I have the beginings of arthritis. I take naproxen for inflamation every day now and my hip will only get worse as time goes by. This is not the way I planed my future, as I have for many years taken good care of myself. Eating right and running 2-3 miles a day 3 or more times a week. Trying to keep a good quality of life as I get into old age. With arthritis my future is certainly not as I planned. I wish I had not taken this shot, if I had been informed of the side affects Icertainly would"nt have. I contacted many lawers non would take my case. Iam 42 now and my doctor said I will probably need a hip replace in my future. Its only been 2 years since my shot. I would advise anyone who got the hole in there hip to have x-rays to see if your shot not only melted your flesh but your bone tissue as well. My doctor zoomed in on my x-rays with his computer you could easily see the damage.
