I was injected with Kenalog in July 2009. After my Anaphlactic reaction & hospitalization, I noticed a large indentation on my left temple area. I need any information in my endeavor to correct this.

I have 2 indentations where I have gotten Kenelog shots.. They are deep and red and purple in color.. Painful.. Aching kind of. I work for a Doctors office and this is how we cure our seasonal allergies so I have gotten several. Had I known half of my butt was going to be gone to feel better I never would have done it. It is embarassing, painful and hard on my self esteem.. I'm not lokking for a law suit but I can name about 15 or so cases just from giving them here at the office.

I received one IM injection of Kenolog by my dermatologist for a rash that I developed around my eyes in early March 2009. A couple of weeks later I had a vaginal yeast infection and missed a period that month. The next month and for several months later I continued with heavy vaginal bleeding and my iron count and hemoglobin dropped. I'm currently taking iron pills and scheduled to have a D&C. I have suffered form hair loss as a result of the anemia and low iron. I returned to the dermatologist and she did confirm that the heavy bleeding is a side effect from the kenolog. I just recently noticed a quarter size indentation in my right buttucks. I'm a registered nurse and I am extremely upset that I was not informed of these awful side effects. What can be done to protect other?
I will more than likely be signing up for this, I have the indention on my cheek also, calling doc to see what med was given to me, it was more than likely kenalog
I was given this shot earlier this summer to help with the horrible allergies I have. About a week ago, I noticed an indententation on my lower back with slight coloration making it look similar to a bruise. I went back to the same doctors office who had given me the shot and the doctor himself had told me it was a bruise. I explained that its not sore to the touch but I think it has something to do with my nerves because muscles in my back twitch and are constantly sore. He told me I must not have noticed it when I bumbed it. It has only gotten deeper since so my step-mom looked it up online and found this site. When the nurse administered the shot, I never was given any information of side effects or was asked to read or sign anything about kenalog shots. The nurse said I'd possibly experience tenderness in the injection sights and drowsiness like any other injection. I am extremely upset about this. I don't want this on my body and I don't want the pain that comes with it. If I would have been provided with the information that I am aware of now I would have opted not to get the shot!
I got a Kenalog shot the summer of 2009, about a month later I noticed a dent in my right buttocks. It is purple in color and causes discomfort in my entire right hip area. I was never told this was a possible side effect. I am 41 and embarrassed by this indention on my body.

I would LOVE to be a part of this lawsuit! I have a horrible indentation on my right leg from an allergy shot, Kenalog! It started out as a huge ugly indentation/black spot. I was really worried about what it was. I called the Dr, they said it would go away. That was 7 months ago. It is still just as big, just as tender, and just as ugly! Please let me know if I can still participate.
Thank you

I am very interested in being part of this. About 4 months ago I received a shot from my Dr's office for allergies that I was suffering from. One month ago I discovered an indentation on my right buttocks cheek. It is about the size of my thumbprint and is different in texture than the rest of my body. It is lighter in color as well compared to the rest of my body. As of right now I have not experienced any pain but am not sure if I will come across that in the future. I was very concerned about this so I was looking for answers online and I am very glad I came across this forum. Thank you

Hi I would like to join the list for the lawsuit. My name is Angela Platt and I live in Raleigh, NC. I had an injection back in May of this year. Just recently I have formed a quarter sized indentation at the injectoin site. It is sore and sometimes throbs. I thought what they were giving me was an injection for an allergic reaction and had no idea this could be a side effect. I would have waived it and used other means to treat the inflammation had i known. I think it's unethical that they are giving this out seeing how many people are having such problems. Please keep me informed of any update to this lawsuit. Thank You
