I am a 28 year old mother of three. In late August I was diagnosed with a rare eye disease and needed to be treated with prednisone pills...The side effects were horrible so after a month my doctor recommended these injections and implied there wouldn't be any side effects other than local ones like drooping in my eyelid which he also made it seem like that wouldn't be a long lasting side effect and I just read a girls blog that stated she has permanent drooping in her eyelid. For the past three months I have felt like shit everyday ....muscle aches, joint pain, extreme fatigue, weak, loss of memory, trouble thinking, hair loss, acne, hair growth on my face, extreme mood swings, suicidal thoughts, irregular periods... And neither my doctor or retina specialist have put two and two together with this instead I feel paranoid and think I have some fatal disease that they're not finding...so I stay up all night long researching my symptoms and have come up MS and Lupus and the most recent..Infected by mold spores which can cause all of these symptoms and those said diseases. I feel crazy, my boyfriend thinks I'm a drama queen, my kids are frustrated with me feeling this way everyday. So yesterday I asked the doctor "what exactly are you injecting into my eyes" and he told me kenalog and now I see that I am not alone with these horrible debilitating side effects. Good luck on your journey I was not given information on this drug or possible side effects either I was given a paper to sign after my eyes had been dialated and I couldn't read a word that was written on the paper anyway...I thought it said he couldn't be held liable if the needle itself had any damaging effects on my eyes...I'm gonna look for a second opinion, Crystal
