-- Brandy, do you know what medication? I am about to go on Lupron. The first doctor I saw simply told me it would put me in menopause which didn't appeal to a 29 year old newlywed with hopes of having children. Fortunately I work with surgeons and have talked to several about endo. The Lupron is not permanent. For many women it eases the pain and can clear-up the adhesions. After a sixmonth treatment it is supposed to increase chances of fertility. As for the fibormyalgia, I imagine you have cysts/tumors. I know from my experience in the operating room (where I work)for women still hoping to have children we remove them. They are reoccurring. I don't know about the medication vs your fibromyalgia. good luck
