Re: Endo & Migraines...From: Shawna (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue May 30 22:23:00 2006
Hello Inny. I have suffered with migraines for 10 years. I am 26 and had 2 laparoscopies. I had my first Lupron shot April 4. The first week, I had an extremely painful period. During the second week, my period ended and the migraines began. I had migraines for nearly two weeks. It is no wonder migraines occur because are bodies are changing drastically. My doctor prescribed Maxalt and the medicine truly helps. I feel quite loopy, but it's better than what we have to suffer through with migraines!! Since the fourth week, I had migraines off and on. As I researched Lupron, I found that migraines is a side effect. I'm sure we're more susceptible since we suffer from migraines. Unfortunately, migraines are excruciating and debilitating. If you keep having them, you really should tell your doctor. I do not have a gallbladder and have an extremely sensitive stomach; however Maxalt does not bother me. I found that I must eat something before I have any medicine. With Maxalt, I always eat a peanut butter and jam sandwich with whole grain bread. It's a wonderful small meal that coats my stomach. Also, I just read that if you have a sensitive stomach it helps to take an antacid along with medicine. Good luck with the Lupron! So far, Lupron is really helping me! It is drastically decreasing my daily Endo pains. Even though I do not officially have a period, I still have lower right side pains when I should be having one. I have one more month with Lupron and I hope it helps my period pain. When I have problems with Endo, I become plagued with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Now, as I am feeling less pain, I can truly say that my energy is beginning to return. I pray and pray that Lupron is what I need. I have been unable to work for a year and I hope to start a part-time job soon. I just graduated college too. I graduated a year later than I anticipated, thanks to my second lap, but I persevered and finished. Do not let Endo get you down; you can still achieve your goals! If you have any more questions, feel free to e-mail me. Please update me with how you are doing on Lupron. Take care, Shawna J
