Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Hello Everyone... Has anyone ever gotten a cortisone shot to help alleviate pain? My ankle pain is getting to the unbearable point, I refuse to increase prednisone again and my next Remicade is still 3 weeks away. My doctor has " authorized " a shot in the hip (? to help the ankle?). I am hoping my primary care doctor can do it in the morning, saving me a 4 hour round trip to the rheumy's office. I have heard the shot itself is really painful... Has anyone had successful pain relief from one of these shots? Thanks for the help, Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
