Well I hope it's going to work for you, I'm getting triamcinolone injections every other month it's a fluronated cortisone product isn't that the same thing as 5FU?
Also could you please show me a picture of your scar/scars? 
No.
5FU is very different then cortisone/kenalog shots.
It does not cause atrophy; less side effects basically.
I might post a pic later, but honestly mine is constantly changing; I don't really think its a hypertrophic scar at this point. I think it's more like an encapsulated cyst (surrounded in some scar tissue; but the center not being a scar).
I am probably going to try lasers or a tca peel on it instead at this point but I do have an appointment with a crypshape doctor and will wait and see what he says about it first before I decide.
