Hi, For me being on Lupron has worsened my mood swings, so I have decided I can not make any big decisions reguarding my boyfriend, or make any other big decisions, while I am on it. It could be the medication she is on that has changed her feelings or , or it is possible that her feelings have changed for you. Being on Lupron is very hard. There are times when I don't feel in control of the way I feel, and my mind changes very quickly(all the time). As was mentioned to you before, I think that she might need some time to think and it wouldn't be such a bad idea if she talked to someone about it (although I would understand her not wanting to) Take care, hope all works out! keep us posted! DC
