Has anyone ever had Cortisone Shot?

Type II diabetic, stil on meds.... Had a Cortisone shot for shoulder pain and blood suger surged.

 i had shots in my wrists for carpal tunnel, also type 2. the shot hurts like heck so that was my guess to why my sugar shot waaaaaay up.  it took 2 wks for my wrist to stop hurting from the shot alone.  in a way it wasnt worth it , cuz it wears off quickly.  im on meds and insulin but i didnt change my doses, just stayed away from carbs, sugar. hope u feeling better.

the sugars are back to better range.   The shoulder pain is not as intense... shot was about 3 weeks ago.

Ive had  8 shots in my back. I was told by a nurse not to have more than 3. You got to make sure you get a good doctor to do it. My mother in law has shots in her back and they put her in to a light sleep. Mine I had nothing. It was very painful and now I hurt were they gave me shots.

I have had cortisone injections in both knee's and having another one on Wednesday.  They do spike but I think it is from the pain.  BSL will go down.

The cortisone shots will definitely make your sugars higher but should resolve and start to come back down in a couple of days.  As you said, they are better now.  If you plan to have any more injections you might want to make sure the doctor knows that you are diabetic and make adjustments to your medications to cover these high blood sugars. 

steroids will almost always raise your bg.  I had trouble with asthma meds. due to that factor.
