http://www.medications.com/effect/view/42390 I had a cortisone injection into my left knee on Friday, June 5th and immediately started to react. Within an hour, I had extreme redness and heat in my face, neck and upper chest. Wheezing, hives in throat and mouth and behind my ears.

Thank God your experience was limited and NOW make sure you were a bracelet or something stating your allergic to it. They toss that medication out like candy and its nothing but death in a bottle (Or an IV).
