I can say this was no help for my fatigue.Kenalog My Dr. wanted to experiment with Kenalog so he shot it into my hip joint. The stress it caused me and the weight gain and stretch marks were definitely not worth the marginal results. Now I am in obese class 1 at a weight of 253.2 lbs.

I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN GOOD ABOUT TAKING CARE OF MY BODY, BUT THIS HAS DESTROYED MY LIFE. DO NOT USE THIS AWFUL STUFF IT RUINED MY LIFE FOR 10 MONTHS AND STILL. Kenalog Injection Kenalog for injection comes in two forms, one as triamcinolone acetonide, which is used for intra-articular (into the joint) injection, and the other as triamcinolone diacetate which is given as an intramuscular injection. One needs to be fully educated in the carious treatments to know best how to proceed.Injections are always used first unless the area is extensive and aggressive with rapid hair loss. If you have an arthritic condition and you have tried everything else. STOP AND TURN AROUND ......DO NOT TAKE THIS INTO YOUR BODY YOU WILL REGRET IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DANGER TO YOUR VERY LIFE!!!! This information is for educational purposes only, and not meant to provide medical advice, treatment, or diagnosis. I can say from my experience that I did get regrowth where I was getting the shots, but as you say for every new patch of growth, I lost hair in other places. Never again!!!Horrific! I finally gave up.

DON'T HAVE ONE. It has side effects that are not understood by the doctors.This stuff is horrible. I kniw weight gain is a side effect of kenalog 40We used this on our infant son to control his eczema. I have read this doesn’t work and causes more harm than hair growth. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES TAKE THIS DRUG INTO YOUR BODY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do not take!For fibromyalgia, I have had Kenalog injected into my hip muscle (my doctor calls it a systemic injection). Eventually it will stop working because the skin becomes dependent on the drug to stay clear. WebMD understands that reading individual, real-life experiences can be a helpful resource but it is never a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment from a qualified health care provider. But if your pain is not arthritis. A couple of days after I was given a 1 cc Kenalog 5mg injection on my scalp due to hair loss, my life was turned upside down. It grew about 1/2 inch and then all fell out again. Doctor NEVER discussed side effects just said allergy shot. They seemed to work at first, but they also seemed to grow hair at the site of injection and lose hair in a circular pattern around the site of injection. found this review helpful.Reviewer: Nicole, 35-44 Female on Treatment for 1 to 6 months (Patient) 24 I noticed a mild shot of energy from the shot but very temporary and a great deal of difficulty falling asleep after this. Never delay or disregard seeking professional medical advice from your doctor or other qualified healthcare provider because of something you have read on WebMD.
