I also experienced aches and pain ALL OVER MY BODY when I took lupron. I
also havent seem to have lost them. I still ache all over when it is
raining and cold or damp outside. I had extreme migraines and hot
flashes, mood swings. I did have endo relief for 2 years, but its back
and I still have the lasting side effects of lupron on top of that. I
dont think it was worth it! I would never take lupron again myself, but
I know it has helped many women. Myself I regret it! Shellea
