Hello...
I took the lupron for the whole 6 months, and didn't have side effects
unil after-the fact. Now in Oct, I am slowly but surely getting better.
i had a terrible time w/ this injection. Memory loss, confusion,
anxiely, dizziness....you name it. I even collapsed in Aug w/ a
seizure. I am currently on the estrogen patch to balance out my system.
I know everyone's body is different, but I am not a fan of lupron and
would encourage anyone to take an alternate route.
