  • Ouch, I have that in my shoulder.

  • Oh my gosh, OUCH!  I hope it helps and feels better soon. OUCH!

  • Oh cortizone huh? Dang. If it festers tonight alternate heat and ice. Can you take ibluprofen?
    Sometimes the injection is painful later....

    I hope you have improvement soon!

  • the shots ARE more painful than the need.  but if  you get relief in a day or so, you will be happy with the whole thing.

  • Ewwwww cortisone shots.  I used to get them in my knee.  But they did help.  After the pain of the shot itself wore off.

    You know, that's what my doc said I have in my right thumb/hand too.  She told me to wear the brace at night all the time.  Mentioned how when she had tendonitis in her elbow she did that and it took a while but went away.  I've been wearing mine a couple months, just to bed and it was a lot better.  Until I started working on this stupid mailing list at work where it's almost all done using the mouse.

  • maaan.... they use cortisone for all sort of problems, eh.... - they also injected cortisone on my eyeball. No fun !

  • Glad to see you again..... !!!! Thanks for the ride.... the car is doing better than my eye.... .

  • Yikes!!! How long do you have to get treatments? I had a friend years ago who had those shots in her knees. Painful. Hope you are all better and don't have to go back!!
