I got an euflexxa injection in both knees for osteoarthritis.This caused joint and muscle pain, low back pain, severe headache, extreme fatigue, muscle weakness and even leg paralysis for a few hours.I also had insomnia and started having daily shaking episodes, nonepileptic seizures, lasting 30 minutes to 6 hours.I was hospitalized on a neuro unit twice.The 1st time for 2 days and the 2nd time for 4 days.I was also treated in the er twice.I started taking benadryl for the insomnia and the immunologist i saw had me decrease the dose.As i did the shaking episodes occurred daily for weeks.The hospital neurologist said my symptoms cause were a mystery.When i was discharged i increase the benadryl to 50 mg/night and the shaking episodes went away.The outpatient neurologist agreed the timing was right for an allergic reaction to the euflexxa and had me slowly wean off the benadryl.Reference report: #mw5149932.
