    Hi Judi

    I had a cortisone shot in my shoulder almost two weeks ago and I too have flushing face, insomnia, dizziness, tiredness, anxiety and feeling hot. I'm hoping it will pass soon because it's debilitating. I have looked online at people's testimonials and they have similar symptoms. Some have lasted months although their medical professionals have said it nothing to do with the shot. There are too many people with similar symptoms for them not to be associated with the shot. How are you now?
