The Kenelog shot is for the Macular Edema, it is a cortisone shot into the eye. Cortisone is a powerful anti-inflammatory medication.It is supposed to make your BS rise, as all cortisone, but it did not affect me at all.
You can suffer from cataract/glaucoma and all that, but its just a chance. I think, well if I have retinopathy, do I take the chance and deal with having to take medications for the rest of my life OR go bling fast w/ out the shot?
