To change the subject but on the subject of backs, it is frightening to hear of the meningitis cases that have been occuring from steroid injections that are tainted with some fungus that have already resulted in seven deaths.
I read in yesterday's Sun that three places in Ocala, one in Orlando and several other places in Florida had received medicine from that lab in Mass. There is nothing that can be done for those patients who have received the tainted injections but to wait until symptoms occur. No treatment can be given and it could take several months until people are truly safe.
Cortisone injections into the spine are usually a safe procedure generally, the article states. This is all due to tainted medicine.
I feel for all of those who have received injections with the tainted medicine and must wait to know if they are affected.
