| 1 | shoulder pain due to torn tendon | 4 hours after a shot in my shoulder, I had severe cramping with watery diarrhea, severe stomach pain, dry mouth, headache. The diarrhea and stomach pain lasted at least 24 hours. It's been a month and I have had 2 other episodes of the diarrhea. I will NEVER take this medicine again! The shot helped my shoulder pain for only about 2 days. | Do not take if you have IBS or any other digestive problem. | F | 77 | 1X day | 11/10/2016 | 5 | Muscle Spasms in back | I had no side effects. Mine was in the form of a shot in the hip. That was August 20 when I had to go to urgent care because my PC does not use this medicine.

The pain got worse if I lay flat -NO RELIEF just kill me! It was all gone about 30 seconds after I received the TORADOL injection. | I was told that the side effects on liver and kidneys could be severe however, with that much pain I'd risk it again. | M | 69 | 1 days 1X day | 5/7/2010 | 5 | inflamed sciatic nerve | No side effects at all | Was in bed for 6 days, unable to walk, because of severe pain in right buttock and lower right side of back; most likely from shoveling and snow blowing snow (20-plus feet this winter at our home!). Soma muscle relaxant pills allowed me to crawl to toilet. One hour after the shot, which was not painful, I was able to walk and pain had diminished at least 80%. | M | 69 | 1 days 1X day | 4/9/2011 | 1 | Inflammation in calves of legs | I took 1 injection in right hip. Eight hours later my right entire buttock area is in excruciating pain. Hip won't bend. Can't reach below my knee. I am on Norco and still can't function for myself. I have been bedridden ever since night of injection-3 rd day in bed. Need assistance for everything. Will never repeat tornado injection. | Risk definitely override the good. Needs to be removed from ad.administering to patients. | F | 69 | 1 times 60 mg 1X O | 4/14/2017 | 1 | Pain after kidney stone removal | In days following the injection, dizziness, stomach pain, lethargy, crazy dreams, waking up sweating at night. | side effects definitely NOT worth the pain relief it may offer | M | 68 | 1 days injection 1X day | 6/2/2012 | 5 | knee replacement | none | I cannot take codeine or morphine, allergic.

Flesh forward I'm in the ER again w headaches and this nurse says we're going to give you a cocktail , cocktail ! The cocktail include toradol and another drug to take the edge off of the side effects of if ( I guess by now they knew how terrible this drug is ) yet they still want to give it to me,and to you SMH and it didn't take a New York minute for me to demand that they unhook the IV drip bc again there was the sudden high anxiety and nervous feeling I get when taking this drug..they need to ban this drug!!!! | M | 65 | 1 days Unknown 1X day | 8/19/2021 | 5 | kidney stone trauma | I had no side effects. I was first given toradol in IV in ambulance. It gave me almost immediate relief. No other drug/opiate has ever provided the level of relief that toradol did.
