Could Trigger Point Injections Cause Brain Injury Or Stroke?
I had trigger point injections about a month ago. During the procedure I felt funny; like I was light headed. I even told them that i felt loopy , drunk. I have had trigger point injection before and never ever felt like that before. Now I have to think about what I m going to say, lose my train of thought, My boyfriend says he noticed a difference in my thought process. He says that I could have had a stoke. Could I have had some sort of brain injury, and is this permanent? Laurie

Could Trigger Point Injections Cause Brain Injury Or Stroke?
Hello! Thank you for asking on HCM! Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms do not seem to be related to any possible stroke. But, the absorption of the injected substance may have caused this symptomatology. I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a careful physical exam and some blood lab tests: - complete blood count - blood electrolytes - thyroid hormone levels. Hope to have been helpful! Kind regards, Dr. Aida
