I haven't had cortisone or streroid shots myself but I have had some odd and mostly temporary effects from the lumbar sympathetic blocks I had a year ago

I totally agree with Sandra - Write down EVERYTHING - Even things you think as only minor - AND - Get your husband involved with your treatment and care as much as you can - knowledge is power and also strength.
Question for you Sandra - You've mentioned odd effects - What did you experience? Since hubby started blocks he has this brown spot on the center top of his hand - It comes and goes - but goes mostly with heat OR with another block - It's pretty wierd but a lot of the things he's experienced since this round of RSD are wierd - Really different from the first round BUT again, he's on way different meds too and it's in his arm this time....
Anyone else experience these "spots"? Are they from the meds or from the RSD? Any thoughts??
