Hi Tricia,
I just wanted to tell you that I've been on the lupron for 2 months with
no change at all. My dr. told me that the pain might be a result of
adhesions. My dr. still wants me to stay on it which stinks because
the side effects are not pleasant, at all. But I'm having another lap
in a few weeks, so I guess then we'll find out what exactly is causing
the pain.
