Bless your heart..... the cancer scare is a real thing and I'm sorry you had to go through that. As you've read in previous comments, you're not alone. I had same experience post-steroid shots in my hip. Once you've had that cancer scare you'll do just about anything not to go through that again. Thus was my decision made to go ahead and have a complete hysterectomy. Knowing steroid shots will continue to be in my future due to arthritis, I was not about to go through the scare again. I pray your decisions in the future will bring you peace of mind.

Thank you. To be honest if I'd known about this side effect I probably wouldn't of taken the steroid shots as the pain from the frozen shoulder was quite manageable . I do think it's a shame this doesn't seem to be very well documented amongst the professionals and we aren't informed of this as a possible side effect. Wishing you much luck with your hysterectomy.
