Hi Shannon, I too am on Lupron and am having horrible side effects! I have a hotflash every hour, and sleep in almost impossible. I am using progestrone cream (over the counter) and I rub it on my neck and abdomin. It's a God send with the hot flashes and headaches, mood swings too - it also makes your skin incredibly soft! I use it continually and if I skip a morning or night rub in, I regret it later! Just a suggestion, hope you feel better! Take care, Chris
