I have been battling endo for 6-7 years now. I did Lupron and Danocrine at the same time. They are basically the same. I had pains all throughout the treatment and that was hell. It didn't help my endo at all. I have been going to Pain Management for 5 years now but it takes pain pills to help me functiom. It took me 2 1/2 yrs to get pregnant and when I finally did my endo didn't get better with pregnancy either. I just wanted to let you know I had the same problems on Lupron and Good Luck! Casey
