 3  Sinus Infection I had first shot in buttock @July 27th 2011 to help with horrible sinus infection. After shot I was restless, anxious, agitated, irritated, had palpitations and insomnia. I felt like my heart was racing and I couldn't catch my breath at times throughout the day and night. I am a nurse and realized that I would have these symptoms after getting a steriod shot. My only other option if sinus infections doesn't improve would have to be sinus surgery. I do not want sinus surgery. By the beginning of August my sinus infection felt like it was improving. Didn't mind the side effects as long as sinus infection was getting better. Went back to ENT on August 24th 2011 for a follow up visit and got another shot of Kenalog as ordered by doctor.
