Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / November 2007Kenalog and nausea-will it go away?
I got a shot today (in my backside) from the rheumatologist for joint pain/inflammation. It was kenalog but I don't know the dosage. It has been about 6 hours and I'm having severe nausea and serious vomiting plus muscle pain and mild headache. I had one shot last year with no problems or side effects. Is the nausea a common side effect and will it go away? This is really awful. Thanks for any info. Could be that you just picked up some bug and that it isn't related to the injection from today. . . . Donna . . . . 1.)

According to http://www.webmd.com/drugs/drug-9275-Kenalog+Inj.aspx?drugid=9275&drugname=Kenal og+Inj&pagenumber=4 Kenalog treats many conditions, including 'nausea and vomiting caused by cancer drugs' so IMHO it itself shouldn't cause vomiting... > On Oct 30, 8:46 pm, wil...@volcanomail.com wrote: > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > Kenalog treats many conditions, including 'nausea and vomiting caused > by cancer drugs' so IMHO it itself shouldn't cause vomiting... Last night I called a local pharmacist and did a google search and both the pharmacist and google said that nausea could be a side effect of the medication but that it shouldn't last overnight which it has. Also stomach and muscle pain (which I have) are side effects as well. What I don't understand is why it didn't affect me this way last year. I posted here because I know people have a lot of experience with different side effects. When I took prednisolone orally I completely lost all sense of taste and smell (and 10 lbs in one week) and people on here had experienced that too, not uncommonly. When I looked up side effects loss of smell and taste were listed as "extremely rare."

Not so good on losing your taste and smell. Have you tried using a natural anti-inflammatory like pure emu oil instead? Pure emu oil has naturally occurring anti-inflammatory properties which should help in the reduction of inflammation in your joints. Generally taking the emu oil in capsule form will be more beneficial for you, as it will get it into your system where you cannot reach from the outside. You can purchase the emu oil and emu oil capsules at www.emu-shop.com online. While you are there, have a read of some of the testimonials. Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions. Spiss,,,, this is not the place for you to advertise. If you do not stop,,, it will be throwing away your throw away account at Google. Yes, yes,,, I know,,, you just get another one but you are going to have to do that.

If kids=home, then sanity=out_the_window I normally don't have the nausea and vomiting, but the muscle aches are bad...Usually Dr will give me a shot when I am in a flare(FM,OA) and it always makes me feel worse before I feel better...I always put it off longer than I should as I know what is in store for me...So I try and work through the flares without it...ARGH I hate steroids...But in the end, it does usually knock the flare out..after I suffer for a few more days...
