Lupron Questions....To Steph & the Lupron leaflet link!

oops...the other one did not show the link for some reason, had to re-post it.

I know Steph, I remembered you saying you got sunburned after your shot! I'm sorry for all you're going through with this & everyone else who has been talked into taking it. Scroll down on this page to where it says "What can patients do to help alleviate or prevent discomfort and side effects?" It says to minimize sun exposure. Here is the page: http://www.swedish.org/116458.cfm

It is REQUIRED BY THE FDA to get an insert about Lupron but I don't know of ANYONE who has gotten one. Did you? Did your doctor give you one? It all sounds like very technical stuff until you get to page 4, then it starts listing side effects.

THIS IS THE ACTUAL LUPRON INSERT: (If it doesn't work as a link, cut & paste in browser window.)

http://66.218.69.11/search/cache?ei=UTF-8&p=lupron+photosensitivity&y=Search&fr=yfp-t-501&u=pitap.abbott.com/lupron7_5mg.pdf%3FnoCache%3D&w=lupron+photosensitivhttp://66.218.69.11/search/cache?ei=UTF-8&p=lupron+photosensitivity&y=Search&fr=yfp-t-501&u=pitap.abbott.com/lupron7_5mg.pdf%3FnoCache%3D&w=lupron+photosensitivity&d=WIgNS-rnO7-_&icp=1&.intl=us

At the bottom of page 6, it says that photosensitivity has been reported as a side effect of the drug. Please repost the link on the insert because I'm sure doctors don't tell patients of all the side effects listed! New stuff comes up everyday.....but the more power to us. Now we can feel more confident when we tell the doctor why we don't want to take this crap.
