Kenalog and prescribed medication

I haven't had a problem with Kenalog. In fact, it worked very well for me with no side effects at all.

However, I'm surprised at people who would ask if they should just stop going to the doctor who is prescribing this medication. In my opinion, asking a group of non-professional total strangers whether one should take or stop taking a prescribed medication seems extremely dangerous.

If one is worried about side effects, one should ask a different professional. A second, or even a third, opinion from a doctor is much wiser than taking advice from people one has never met.

I'm not a doctor, don't know any doctors socially or by family relationship and deal only with my own doctor. I'm probably as intelligent as the average person and I have experience with Kenalog but I would NEVER suggest that any of you start, stop or change any prescribed medication.

Nor would I ask Internet strangers what I should do about a medication. A site such as this is very useful for gaining many-sided, experiential information but I wouldn't use it in place of a medical professional and I'm sure that the site owners agree.

BTW, I once got a permanent injection site indentation from a simple pain shot. Some people are just prone to get these things. I didn't blame either the doctor or the medication and a dimple on my butt hardly seems earth-shattering.
