Has anyone had trigger point injections for fibromyalgia?I had cordisone injections put into my hip bones today along with a numbing agent.I wont say if it is working yet or not as im waiting a few days to see if the full blown pain comes back again before i say anything.I just wanted to know if anyone has had this and if so was it with cordisone thanks .Sleepless.

I get them monthly in my neck. They work, not as well as I would like but these days a little relief is better than nothing.

I had bursitis in my hip a few years ago, I knew it wasnt fibro because when I walked it felt like my hip bone was slipping.

I got a shot in my hip and it helped my hip. Thats the only thing it helped still had the fibro pain all the time in rest part of body.

I've had them a few times in the past but don't get them anymore because they did not help and I was gaining weight, guessing from the steroids? I can't remember the names but I've had 3 types, 1 was called bilateral facet injections. Then my Dr. burned my nerves in my lower back. At that time that is where the majority of my pain was but has since worsened. Weird thing is, even with burnt nerves, I still have lower back pain. I hope it helps you. Good luck!
