Mummy...nerve damage, death of nearby bone, soft tissue damage, risk of further injury, to name a few. If you simply mask the pain and don't teat it's cause, what's the point? I can see older people getting relief but a young person resorting to this seems extreme. I guess she did it for the game. Surely she wouldn't use it on a regular basis. I am not a fan of cortisone in any form so I'm probably biased.

Yeah besides the normal digs everyone seems to make I don't think jannelle has bashed anyone but Frank and Boogie. This really should be a psychological study how all these people decided someone who has never bad mouthed others to you has done it to everyone else. For ten people to do that is bonkers.

Marks, I thought Ashley hurt her back in the first week in the Have Not bed. BB did add padding to the beds after the first Have Nots. From years of watching it seems that people with pre existing conditions come in with meds and refills.

Laj, I thought Cortisone was an anti inflamitory/steroid? A pain reliever would just block the pain. An anti inflamitory would reduce the swelling that reduces the pain. So isn't that treating the cause? You have a past with this med that is negative. For me, I don't, so I prefer that they try to reduce her inflamation locally instead of pumping her with narcotics. Love ya Laj........just a little bump on the road that we disagree about.

There have been psychological experiments (since banned) that prove that when people are given roles to play, they will act them out. In a group, it is magnified. Herd mentality, if you will. They have all assumed their roles by now and have begun to act on them. The savior role is a huge one, but the villain is needed to drive any action that provides safety. Safety in the house equals votes and banding together to take out a threat is perceived as a savior act. One person usually fulfills that role with the flock behind him or her. I believe that person is Dan. Whenever someone steps up to usurp that role, a new villain is needed to move forward. That's why this game is so entertaining. Every week there is potential for new roles. For a villain to rise to power, it has to be so feared that everyone will give away power to receive safety. Kinda how ED won. At the end, he was seen as victorious because they were removed from the immediate threat (in jury) and saw it as power. Power always wins over anyone not perceived as the savior. If I explained it right, I hope that made sense. I'm really tired. LOL

Mummy, they usually add pain relieving medication to the steroid. Two for one. Wil is making himself into a cat?

I have had a cortisone shot to my shoulder before. It worked wonders on a build up of calcium.... The shot did relieve the pain.. but also helped reduce the calcium ..

It is so silly when wil and Ashley bash janelle. She hurt her game trying to protect her totally incompetent team. If we rank the draft in hindsight janelle picked the worst team by far, even though all three are still in the house. So I guess janelles downfall was her drafting skills. She would have been better off with Kara, Willie and Jojo.

Maybe dangerous was the wrong word. The side effects are disturbing to me is all. I do admit that I am biased against them. How freakin' cute are Wil and Ash!

Agreed Marks. She saved the two that are against her now. She lost her savior role and became the villain. She didn't use her 'power' very well.

I like the convo between Dan, Wil and Ash. No bashing, just chatting. As cats.

Wil is discussing his days at a Catholic school and the bullying and abuse he suffered. He said it was his idea of what hell would be.

Yeah. He does express himself very well. I liked what he had to say. Sympathy for the bully is often forgotten and it's one of the most powerful ways to stop bullying.

I agree Laj. We have a bully down the street. Father and son. The kid allienated everyone and was kicked out of school before graduation. But his father was beating Mom, so what did the kid learn at home? Of course with the schools no tolerance policy, even the victim of the kid was punished when defending themselves. I hate that policy.

I do too Mummy. It's the dumbest policy meant only to keep the school officials from legal retaliation. No one can say they were unfair if everyone gets the same punishment.
