Hi Christyn, I have just finished a six month course of lupron shots. I felt relief from pain and bloating within the first 6weeks. From what I understand tho, it is so different for everyone. My sympathies to you. My last injection was July 25th and I have not yet resumed mentrating. I think I have finally finished with my hotflashes - thank goodness! I actually lost weight for the first few months as I felt flu-like and it greatly affected my appetite. I am still waiting for my energy level to return. Perhaps you should speak with your doctor regarding the discomfort you are still feeling. I wish you well. Feel free to email me if you have any more questions. Lisa
