Hello again, I agree with G, with the hot/cold issues, and am on the Monthly shot- I am 31, due to get my second one on Oct 4th. Not sure if I am or not. I am going to make an appt with my doc to discuss what has been going on with me since I began this treatment. I even ceated a spreadsheet detailing daily what I have been going through. Not sure how much it will help, but at least when she asks how I have been I can show her on a daily basis. For me I have been in pain and discomfort since the day after my shot, continuing all the way to today, different days different levels of pain yet still always there. Do either of you have a metallic taste in your mouth? It was there the first week and a half after the shot, then didn't notice it or have it . Now this morning it is overwhelmingly gross. I have been on anti anxiety drugs for about 6 months before getting on the Lupron, I'm not sure if that is helping me with the moodswing side of things. I've always been moody so it's hard to tell. For me my frustration at the hopes of this Lupron making me feel better and it not happining is starting to make me angry and work life and stress harder to deal with. I have been out of pain meds for a couple days, don't feel like I'm having withdrawls, just hurting and 1800mg or more of advil aren't doin the trick. You are definitly not alone............
