Podiatrist gave me a total of 2 injections containing Kenalog into the top of my forefoot for an injury (I banged my foot, but no broken bones). About 2 months after the 2nd injection, I noticed an indentation and skin discoloration directly beneith an injection site. Now many months later, I have lost a significant amount of the fat pad on the ball of my foot. I have chronic pain in the ball of my foot. I wonder how the Kenalog has affected the muscles or bones in my foot, since it destroyed the fat pad.

This podiatrist NEVER mentioned that there are possible side effects of steroid injections. He only stated positive things about the shots, and I didn't know any better. If he had told me that there were side effects like fat pad atrophy, I would NEVER have let him inject my foot. My foot would have been fully healed today had I not received those injections, but instead ended up with a chronic condition!

Because I sleep so much, my back and ribs get so sore. Also, I feel like my muscles are weakening. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. Does that make sense? I have had this disorder from the time I turned about 25. I am now 35. I have been to several Physicians and 90% think it's depression. However, the reason I'm depressed is because I'm so freaking tired. It takes everything I have to cook supper and wash dishes.
