Christi,

Unfortuneatly having a child does not make it go away, Like the Lupron it just puts it on hold for a while. Once you stop, your estrogen gets bak into gear, It will all come back again. Has your dr. Recc continuous birth control Like Depot Provera, or a continuous pill to keep your estrogen levels down as much as possible... Ive done Lupron TWICE. If you think the first time is bad, don't try a second round, I really wish I hadn't, knowing how bad I felt the first time, it was 10 times worse the second time. I'm on continuous Birth control with Depot Provera about every 10 weeks instead of 13 so I dont take a chance of getting a period. It works for a bit... Then I feel it allcreeping up and back on the roller coaster very quicky. As for the Fibromylagia, all I can remember about that is that there is a whole lot of acheyness, and fatigue. I was diagnosed with Epstein-Barr Virus, some of the same affects sometimes worse becuase it feeds off of whatever is wrong with you... If you know what Mono is, same viral family, but Mono goes away, EBV is with you forever, buit as long as your healthy your good, but if you get sick it could get bad, and Ive been bad, so bad that I litterally had no strenght to move. Do as much research as you can, trust me the more you know about what is going on with you and what types of things to expect, and also what types of things that you have going on already or that has happened. I have read so may things are tied into the Endo, like having problems with your Immunity and Chronic Fatigue, such as the EBV and Fibro are just a few. They say knowlege is power, and with the things we can pull up on the internet... I sometimes surprise my Dr.!!! Find as many links as you can, keep track of everything that is going on with you. and whatever you do, dont give up. we are all here for you... if you nee anything at all you can email me yvogarcia@hotmail.com
