Elisha,

I can't believe you've been on Lupron that long. I only lasted two months and the second month was so unbearable, I almost went insane. I felt manic-depressive when I was on the Lupron, in addition to all the other awful side effects (hot flashes, night sweats and migraines). I couldn't take it anymore. I'm a Marriage and Family Therapist and it was killing my career. I would cry at the drop of a hat and 5 minutes later, I'd be laughing hysterically! I was scaring my husband! It got so bad, that I couldn't even work and had to take time off. I would rather deal with the pain of endo than go through that again. The Lupron is finally out of my system and I finally feel half-way normal. I have the pain again, but it is not nearly as bad as the Lupron.

Good luck to you. If you ever need to email, write me back at cookiepuss66@sbcglobal.net.
