| 1 | knee pain after trauma | Massive weight gain, redistribution of body fat to the torso, bloated belly, swollen thighs, puffy swollen face. | I was talked into intra-articular injections of Celestone Soluspan to deal with knee pain after falling on concrete on flexed knees. I initially refused the injections but was assured NONE of the steroid was systemically absorbed. A massive dose of Celestone Soluspan (12 mg each knee for a total of 24 mg) was injected into my knees. One week later my weight was up 4 pounds. My orthopedist who did not inject me (it was a sports doctor) confirmed that the steroid is absorbed systemically and continues to course through your system for 4 weeks after the injection and remains in your body some time afterward. I was a fit 100 pound women who hiked 15 miles a week prior to my fall. before the injections. Six weeks later, I have gained 6.5 pounds of belly fat and have a swollen face. My body shaped has completely changed. I cannon lose the weight and keep gaining despite the fact that I am eating only one meal a day. The injections did nothing to alleviate my pain. | F | 1 days 24 mg 1X day | 6/5/2020 |
