Hi I was given a shot of Kenalog-40 in the center of my hand for a nodule from Dupreytron Contracture two days later my hand swelled to the size of a large boxing glove my fingers were so misformed and pulled apart and I had red streaks running up my arm. It wasn't until they did a echocardiogram of my heart and seen that I had a vegetation mobile mass on the right cusp of the aorta to my heart from this shot. I got my shot at the VA Hampton Medical Center in Hampton Virginia on August 27, 2008 and in the hospital the 29th of August 2008. There were 11 other people who also had trouble with the Kenalog-40 injection but we don't know who the other eleven are so we could get together and do something jointly about this my husband's hand and his heart are damaged for life this is unforgettable.
