Kenalog and liver

I had Kenalog shots many years ago, beginning in 1969 for the initial onset of terrible hay fever when I was a senior in high school. It was wonderful at the time because the shot cleared up all hay fever symptoms. I probably had the shot, in the hip, once a year for a couple more years. I did not notice any dimple or change in the skin or muscle at the injection site. I stopped getting the shot because I didn't have any medical insurance. Then around 1993, with medical insurance restored, I decided to have a Kenalog shot again when hay fever symptoms kicked in (August). The hay fever symptoms were relieved, but to my surprise, my leg and feet muscles were cramping terribly off and on all day for several weeks. My legs have been very sore to touch now for many years and I wonder if it is a result of the shot. My understanding is the Kenalog medicine is in an oil base and is stored in the fat tissues of the body or the liver for slow release over a period of a few weeks. As with everyone else who has listed here, any potential side effects or instructions to be on the look-out for side effects was not communicated or initiated by my physician.
