Hi there, yes they always help the pain & stiffness & energy levels go up but I find it's false & always causes something else. My heart goes into overdrive so probably that's what's causing your headaches & dizziness.

I hope it all soon wears off for you

Take care Gid Bless

I always suffer with a very red hot and flushed face and arms after a cortisone shot in my shoulder. In addition I feel shaky and a little weak for up to 48 hours too.

Not what you're looking for?
