How long the rise in your sugar level last after a cortisone shot. My wife got her shot in her shoulder about a week ago and we noticed that her sugar count has risen. How long does the this side effect last?

Hi there, cortisones stay in your system for awhiel so if that indeed caused a rise in her blood sugar, I think it will probably be there for a week or two if I am not mistaken. Have you discussed this with a doctor? I think it might be a good idea just to make sure everything's going okay. What do you think?

I know this is a two year old post..........however, I had a steriod shot for my lumbar about one year ago and never had high blood glucose until them and since then have been very high!
Does this sound normal?

I got cortisone shots in both knees Tuesday. On Wednesday, I had blood test during a check up and glucose was 40 points higher. By Saturday, it was back to normal.
