As you all are aware of I was quitting smoking to have surgery on my right hip;Hip replacement. However I just learned I have a blood clot in the same area where I have severe arthritis RH. I was getting steroid shots in the area for almost 2 years now after the blood clot shows up I checked to find out if steroids injections cause blood clots. They there is no complete study but they say it can cause blood clots. Have anyone had blood clots in that same area where you was getting steroid injection for arthritis pain. At the moment my right hip replacement surgery is on hold until the blood clot is removed .pray for me.
