Hello i am in the same boat as you. I had a partial hysterectomy in november now i am having extreme pain on my right and left sides. So i went in for an ultraound last week and her found a cyst on my right side so he put me on the lupron shot i got my first shot on friday and so far have no comfort. If this dont work we will have no choice but to remove my ovaries which i had wanted to begin with. Anyways i sympathize for you i am right where you are. You are not alone.
