Cortisone Shot Worsen Symptoms?

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Coraopolis, PA

Hi everyone, gentle hugs! I've gotten a few cortisone shots over the years & they always make my issues worse. Wasn't sure if this is just my body being weird, or if anyone else with fibro has this issue too?

Always thought the pain was worse after. Stopped doing them because it just wasn't worth it.

That’s all they will give me, I was getting them to close together I’m assuming and also in my elbows too since somehow I ended up with tendinitis! Haven’t had them in mths & the pain is unreal. I felt like they were helping ease some pain, which is better then none
