I did sleep for an hour or so starting about 40 min after taking the pill.

Toradol worked the best for me. | F | 65 | 3 weeks 2X day | 3/23/2012 | 1 | Migraine | Had a migraine for 3 days went to clinic, had CBC and sinus xrays, Nurse Practioner could not find any infection, told me I should have a shot of Torodol, I have asthma and very sensitive to drugs, although I take tramadol and xanax for Sjorgren's Syndrome, within 20 mins of shot I could not breathe, became extemely agitated, flushed, my husband rushed me to ER where I was given shot of benadryl, phenegran and 4 mg of Morphine. DOCTOR TOLD ME NEVER DRIVE TO ER, ALWAYS CALL 911 BECAUSE OF ANAPHALACTIC REACTIONS. NOTIFY ANYONE YOU HAVE ASTHMA BEFORE GETTING INJECTION OF TORADOL. STILL FEEL UNWELL 24 HOURS LATER. | F | 58 | 1 days 60 mg. 1X day | 3/22/2012 | 1 | Foot pain and Inflammation | I went to my foot surgeon with severe pain an inflammation on the operated foot. She gave me two shots with Toradol right on the inflammed spot. The shot hurt more than childbirth. I was unable to move my foot for over 30 minutes. I felt very weird after the shot and woke up gasping for breath and with sever stomach ache that night. It has been 4 days and I am still struggling with my stomach discomfort and my foot as as swelled and paiful as before the shot. | This is a powerful drug that should never be given to anyone without explainning all possible effects. Not everyone reacts the same way to the same drug. A doctor can kill you trying o help you. | F | 51 | 1 days ? 1X O | 3/1/2012 | 3 | severe low back pain | Headache, dizzy,nausea, felt feverish, diarrhea. Stomach pain | F | 36 | 1 days 30 | 2/29/2012 | 5 | fibromyalgia | I did have a small headache soon after but that lasted approx.15 min. I've had a upset stomach but again minor. This shot I received kicked in within minutes. I went into the office in tears pain was a 9, and I was limping, 30min later I was laughing,walking normal and pain was down to a 1. I do not know the mg of this shot or how long it will last but I am getting as much accomplished as I can now! | F | 39 | 1 days | 2/25/2012 | 1 | Severe menstrual cramps and migraine | I got the injection in my lower hip/back area right in the muscle. It felt like the medication was tearing/burning its way into my hip and back. The pain eased off to a "bruised" type feeling after a few hours, but it's been over a month now and the pain and tenderness is still there in my back. I have never had back pain or issues before, but now it's tender to the touch, it feels like it's bruised inside and out and my back feels very stiff. I also have been very, very drowsy and tired since. I can only manage to stay awake for up to 8hours at a time before I fall asleep. | The nurse peer pressured me into getting a shot of toradol. First of all I am not "needle shy" but I didn't feel like my pain was so bad that I needed a shot of something that I knew nothing about and had never taken before. I gave in when I should have just told her no, but after I'd said no like three times she made me feel like an idiot for refusing so I eventually gave in. The shot hurt like hell, way worse than a tetanus shot. After reading this forum, I am definately going to be calling my doctor. | F | 28 | 1 days 1X day | 2/22/2012 | 2 | Back pain | - Diarrhea and upset dstomoch for 24 hours - High fever senstions, but no actual high temperature, for nearly 24 hours - Some dizziness for more than 24 hours | Worked well on the back pain, but not worth the horrible consequences. My research suggests my feeling of fever is quite uncommon. | F | 41 | 1 days 1X day | 2/21/2012 | 5 | Knee injury (ACL tear) | No negative side effects. On the plus side, it really helped reduce inflammation of my knee and helped with pain. | F | 44 | 1 days ? Injected | 2/20/2012 | 2 | Sinus Headarche turned Migrain | Legs were shaky and acheing Stomach upset. | Had Toradol in ER for pain relief of sinus headache turned Migrain. Did not like the way it made me feel. I did go home and slept for 11 hours but now headache back, don't like the Toradol for Migrains, works only short time them back to where I started. | F | 54 | 1 days 1X day | 2/13/2012 | 5 | muscle and nerve pain back-buttocks | no real negative side effects, slight drowsiness. | Medication took about 20 minutes to work after IM injection. Pain level was 9 or 10, reduced to almost 0. Worked over night. Wish it worked longer. Will ask for it again, when spine pain is high. | F | 51 | 60 mg 1X day | 2/6/2012 | 2 | Post op kidney stone removal/stent | 3 hrs after being sent home from kidney stone removal and placement of stent, I was back in ER with worst pain I had ever felt. ER doc gave toradol and pain was gone quickly. I was given injections every 6 hrs for 3 days. I began to feel like I was dying... Can't think of another way to describe it. I finally refused the toradol after the third day and began to feel much better. | F | 57 | 3 days 3X day | 1/31/2012 | 4 | Chronic Migraine | It took care of my 4 day migraine but it wasn't long after that I felt very out of it and very tired. My lower back felt stiff but no other unusual pain. It ended up knocking me out for a very long time though. I slept for 10 hours straight and still woke up feeling groggy and out of it. Also woke up a few times with cotton mouth and very thirsty. Not sure I liked how this made me feel. But glad it at least got rid of my migraine. | F | 25 | 1 days 1 dose | 1/26/2012 |
