A member asked:

Had cortisone shot on top wrist on ganglion cyst 5 days ago. seems it has brought on some fatigue. how long is this fatigue supposed to last? my sleep is slightly disturbed as well?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I have never had a patient complain of fatigue soon after having a corticosteroid injection into shoulder,hip,knee,wrist etc but it definitely has been reported. Some speculate that it's caused by fluctuations of blood sugar. If the fatigue persists see your MD for evaluation including some basic blood testing such as cbc&diff, glucose,electrolytes, creatinine thyroid panel.
