Wow - I had a great experience with kenalog in suppressing my allergies. They have been unbearable until getting the shot. I sat down with the doctor who went through the list of pros and cons with the drug. He said, and I agree wholeheartedly (I'm sure we all do) that no is more interested in or more responsible for my health than I am, so he said after going through the risks of meds that I should verify it for myself and if I felt comfortable with the shot he would give it. Can you imagine how much better off the world would be if we all took responsibility for ourselves - actually did our own homework? I've seen doctors before who don't really take the time to discuss side effects so I'm glad he did (but then, how many people ever read the drug information that the pharmacist gives out - can't really blame the doctor for that...). Anyways, given that I had severe symptoms that was affecting sleep and very low risk for osteoporosis I got the shot and man do I feel great!

I have to agree with you i felt great too, my reaction didn't show up until 3 years after my first injection. my doctor was too very helpful and informed me on risks of brittle bones and weight gain. he has since said that he has never experienced my reaction before.But has now seen it on the internet as have i. Please dont get me wrong i am not slating my doctor, just sharing my experience to warn others.

Your a bitch. Im sure you would be more simpathetic if you got an idiot doctor like many of these people have and were not fully informed. I hope one day the misfortune of "not getting all the facts" either by not researching properly or having a jackass doctor affects you negatively so maybe you will grow a heart and be simpathetic the the pain of other human beings.
