Wow! What you described describes me to a T! I lost 25 lbs this year and then got poison ivy twice in two months... They gave me a 6-day pill pack first and then the steroid shot the second time which was 2 months ago. My body can't stop gaining. Since you posted a year ago when did your metabolism start kicking in again?

Oh, yeah I am a weight train person too (but have not taken the type of steroids you are talking about to increase muscle mass).
All these people and myself are strictly talking about Corticosteroids. Which I also was given for 2 1/2 years almost every two moths (for asthma / lung infections). I weight train and play tennis. Normally I have low blood sugar problems and low blood pressure issue. After the Corticosteroid shots I put on massive fat weight and blood sugar and pressure went up. I am like all these people desperately looking for a successful detox to rid myself of this c**p in my system. I can't get rid of the dang belly and weight. I did manage to lose 20 of the original wight gain through Lepti Burn and Amino acids. But have not found the true supplement to aid my adrenal glands which is what is effected the most by corticosteroids. So anyone with an idea on that one and a good detox program, I am all ears!

I also had a steroid shot over three years ago for severe asthma/allergies. I gained 18 pounds and still have not been able to lose it despite working out several times a week and teaching fitness classes. I have tried low carb, cleanses, you name it. Nothing has worked for me. I am extremely frustrated since I never had a weight problem before that shot. I had been the same weight for 20+ years.

I wish I had seen this sooner. Had a cervical nerve root block gained 10 pounds so far. Still in pain, with the doctors talking surgery. Vertebra replaced with cadaver bone. Pain is tremendous. Weight gain makes things worse. Frustrating.

Agreed! They do cause weight gain. I've gained weight after each shot as well. I cannot get it off!

Me too and you're right It is super frustrating I started shots September 29, 2016 weighing 113 lbs. today 12-17-16 I am at 149.6 lbs and it's disgusting. I'm still in pain and the extra weight is making it harder on my bones than it already was. The doctor told me it wasn't because of the shots. Biggest lie ever. I wish I had known before. I would have skipped it all and had surgery because in the end, over 20 injections, nerve blocks, etc later I'm still in pain and now fat to top it off. My bones are more stressed than before and i have less mobility with all this weight. I hope this helps someone else. Be really careful and read these threads!!! They're helpful!!

For some reason, epidural is much different. Does anyone know of steroids, cortisone shots in detail as far as any differences? The doctor gave me the shots under the name cortizone shots, but I have learned that there are different cortizone shots? Is that correct?
