My reply
Hi Dr Z….
Thank you for arranging with your friend Dr K…… to talk to me and also to give me the Cortisone injection. You are very much appreciated.
I would like to let you know that I experience the following side effect from the injection, please let me know if these are normal and that I should not be alarmed about it.
1- Constant heart palpitation
2- Severe headache
3- I could not sleep last night and in total I only clock in 3 hours sleep
4- Light headed when I want to get up from the sofa/bed
Looking forward to hear from you again.
Please accept my warm regards
H…….

Dr Z….’s Reply
Dear Madam,
Thank you very much.
1- The headache could stem from the local anesthetic which went to the blood stream... (by absorption or by accidental i.v. injection etc...)
2- palpitation and sleeplessness would be explained by this too.
3- light headedness could be due to a hypotension caused also by local anesthetic in the blood stream
4-The half-life of Naropin® (the local anesthetic) is up to 6 hours which means that by now almost everything is gone.
Best regards
D….. Z….
