| 3 | torn ACL | Initial injection wasnt too bad, burning sensation and feels like a bruise. A couple hours after getting IM shot: rapid heart rate, shaky, bad stomach ache, diarrhea. This is the third time Ive taken a shot. Once for kidney stones and twice for my knee. It did help my knee pain and decreased the swelling and it definitely helps with kidney stone pain, but not sure it's worth the stomach ache | F | 35 | 1 days | 3/27/2014 | 5 | Kidney Stone | None | I was in the ER with what turned out to be a 8mm plus sized kidney stone causing extreme (10) pain. 3 shots of dilaudid had little effect. Moments after the nurse injected the toradol into the IV line, the pain was almost competely gone. I don't usually take NSAID's, but this was amazing! | M | 51 | 1X day | 3/21/2014 | 5 | siatica | Amazing pain relief | F | 70 | 1 days 30 MG | 3/7/2014 | 3 | Servere migraine | Sever pain at injection site, unable to sleep well night of injection, rapid heart beat. I've been given this before, for kidney stones in the pill form. I felt as if the pills never did anything. I went into immediate care last night with a horrible migraine and on top of anti nausea meds, steroids, and Benadryl they gave me a shot of toradol in my right hip. It hurt like a butch to get and I couldn't sleep on that side. And I almost killed my cat when he stepped on the injection site. Now the next day it still hurts and my right side looks swollen. Not happy :/ don't get why the drs didn't just give me a shot of immatrex or something. But at least the shot did help get rid of the migraine pain. | F | 26 | 1 days 30mg | 1/15/2014 | 1 | Neck & Back Pain, Tension Headache | Pain during and after injection Lack of pain relief Stomach ache/chest pain - worse the next day | Was at doctor's office for my never-ending migraine... and chronic pain. She offered shot since I hadn't taken anything that day, she said it was similar to ibuprofen. I figured the shot wouldn't upset my stomach, I didn't digest it. It hurt like hell when they gave me the shot ... ... and there was no pain relief. By the evening I started to get the familiar stomach burning with chest pain... as happens with ibuprofen or aspirin. The only thing I can take is mid/low dose vicodin with tylenol. I had very very bad reactions to muscle relaxers as well. Still dealing with the acid reflux/chest pain the next day... Adding this to the list of never taking it again ! | F | 27 | 1 days 1X day | 1/14/2014 | 2 | Lumbar Radiculopathy | Toradol shot burned, but didn't take away my pain. Pain was slightly eased for a little while, but not enough to make much difference. | F | 34 | 1 times 60mg/2ml | 12/26/2013 | 1 | tension headache | this shot did not help. just a sore hip. | M | 20 | 1 days idk | 12/26/2013 | 5 | Radical neck disection | No side effects. Instant pain relief. | M | 63 | 1 days 1X day | 12/25/2013 | 5 | Bad headache | I went to the urgent care on two separate occasions with severe headaches. Both times they gave me Toradol and the pain was gone in minutes. | This is a pretty effective drug in my mind. I understand why this is prescription because it is strong and non-narcotic. People would probably eat this like Tylenol and get all kinds of stomach issues. | M | 35 | 1 days 50 1X O | 10/8/2013 | 3 | Bruised ribs | Fever and chills | F | 29 | 1 days 30 mg | 10/8/2013 | 5 | Migraine w/ Vomitting | None | Within 10 Minutes Started Feeling Relief and Could Function again. | F | 42 | 1X day | 9/11/2013 | 1 | neck and lumbar pain from osteoarth | Couldn't urinate although drank a lot of water. Took 5 mg in afternoon, it seemed to help a little with muscle spasms in back. But then started to bloat: fingers and feets, face. Could not sleep: up all night peeing off the retained water. I hate nsaids. Every one that I've tried does something like this me, or makes me depressed. Now, the next morning, sore throat, glands swollen, difficulty breathing, and incipient migrain. Plus a fever of 101 F. Could that be coincidence? NEVER AGAIN! | Go to Rxlist.com and read the warnings about this drug. I am amazed that people are allowed to take it by the FDA. Very dangerous stuff, and only mild relief of original pain. Two thumbs down! | F | 59 | 2 days 5 mg 1X day | 8/7/2013 | 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. Too bad it can only safely be given for such short period of time. | F | 64 | 5 days 20 MG | 7/30/2013 | 5 | Migraine with vomiting | None yet. I got the shot 3 hours ago. I'll pray the migraine won't come back tomorrow. The shot, in my left hip/buttock stung at first, but quit hurting after 2 hours. Small price to pay if the migraine does not come back! Thank You Lord. | F | 56 | 1 days 30mg | 7/9/2013 | 1 | Shoulder pain - calcific tendonitis | After injection in hospital E/R: MIGRAINE headache, heart pounding & taccycardia, G/I gurgling & stomach pain. | This drug seems way too dangerous for generic injection use in hospital E/R settings. Doctor said it would relieve pain and help me sleep but I was up all night with serious side effects. 12 hours later, I still have drug-induced migraine. The slightly relieved shoulder pain was absolutely not worth it, and I am appalled at the cardiac issues. | F | 59 | 1 times Injection 1X O | 6/19/2013 | 1 | sciatica, disc degeneration | I've had this by hip injection three times (different doctors) and a 30 day pill script once. The injections stung and made my left butt muscles ache for a couple days. The pills made me sick to my stomach and did nothing for my pain. The injections didn't reduce my pain at all either. | Waste of money. | F | 56 | 1X day | 6/3/2013 | 3 | Migraine | Nausea with every meal. My stomach hurts so bad right now and has since about two hours post-injection. My migraine got a little better but it was not fast acting. It took about 6 hours to feel any pain relief. Not my painkiller of choice. I hope these stomach issues subside soon. | F | 25 | 1 days 60mg IM | 4/12/2013 | 3 | surgery | both arms and legs tingling then later on they were numb | F | 25 | 3 days 1X AN | 4/3/2013 | 3 | Tension Headache | Extreme fatigue after injection. And it hurt getting it. | Went in for injection on day 12 of a tension headache. Had been taking fioricet and ibuprofen without much success. I had some relief from the shot, but the pain was back the next morning. | F | 30 | 1 1X day | 4/3/2013 | 3 | Low back pain | It made my throat and my stomach start burning as well as the pain in my right leg worse...it did help somewhat with the pain, but the side effects I didn't care for... Not worth the side effects.... | F | 41 | 1 days 30 | 2/14/2013 |
