the more i read.. the more depressed i get over the use of kenalog. Although it does help take out some of the mystery. I had a kenalog shot just a few weeks ago-- my second one this year. I have developed a big dent in my upper right hip... it's discolored and it hurts extremely bad. My vision has been blurry all year long... i even went back to my eye doctor -- and had another lasik eye treatment. yet i'm still seeing blurry. i've had fever -- chills... insomnia... irritability.. neck pain-- and severe pain in my right leg. i have cut back my workouts and thought my mystery illness and lack of workouts just meant.. a fat pocket. my doctor told me otherwise.. he is sending me to an orthopedic.. and said it's muscle atrophy but made no mention of the kenalog drug.. which the nurse told me on my way out. someone else wrote "moon face"-- not sure what thats but i feel everything has changed. And-- oh.. i have had many bouts of nausea and dizziness. Is there any recourse? does insurance cover any of that. ? someone please write me back.. how long will this last in my body and will this dent go away?
