Did you get one injection in one SI joint or both?
What type of doctor did your injections and did they use X-ray to guide them? Have you had these injections in the past without these symptoms?
What type of pain and symptoms did you have before the injections. Was the pain localized to the joint only or did you have radiating pain/numbness/tingling?
Have you seen a neurologist for evaluation and testing?

One side. Pain clinic did it, yes used X-ray. Yes had this same one before without issues.
I had radiating pain to thigh, hip, buttocks.

The injection needle may have injured nerves near the SI joint. A neurologist can do a EMG/nerve conduction study to narrow down nerves impacted.
Did you recently or ever fallen to cause the SI joint pain? Have you had a MRI of your pelvis/hips?
Since arms/hands are involved, you may need a cervical MRI done to see if there is anything compressing nerves in your neck or your spinal cord. Your lumbar spine can cause issues in your legs/feet but so could your cervical spine.
