Knee injection problem
Hi everyone, I have tried to search for other posts about my problem but cant seem to find anything.
three weeks ago I had my second injection for my knee ( first was fine ) within a few hours I suffered terrible side effects, severe headache, spike in blood pressure, palpitations, dizziness fainting etc etc . My GP said this can happen and will pass in a few days. It didnt.
since then I have continued to be too ill to work , im self employed so no money😩 I now have my BP under control but Im left with extreme fatigue, terrible stomach problems such as acid reflux / upset stomach, palpitations, my hiatal hernia is giving me hell…
and my knee pain was back within a few days …
my GP is saying “ anxiety” which to me is a “ cover all angles comment” .
i’d appreciate any others experiences please .

Hello @Pattypoo1959 and welcome to the online community!
Here you'll be able to find support from other people living with arthritis. In the meantime, here's some information on dealing with fatigue which will hopefully be helpful.
Best wishes, Yasmin (Mod)
