Re: What did I do to myself?

Please, please, don't blame yourself, Maggie. The doctors responsible for taking care of us are the ones to blame. We are supposed to be able to trust them. I posted that article to show how dishonest the medical community has become and I just want to prevent anyone else from being hurt by Lupron.

Like I've said before, I don't have the right to tell anyone NOT to take it, but I know that the doctors are not telling anyone the whole story and of all the risks, not giving them the leaflet, so how can these women really make an informed decision?

I don't mean to go on and on about it, but if the doctors are not honest with us, women asking about Lupron need to be told the truth. I think it would be good for your family to read some of that stuff, so they know you are not over-reacting and can be a little more empathetic to your situation.

Just take lots of vitamins and eat healthy. Hopefully, you were not on it long enough for the symptoms to last. Know you have friends on here, anytime you need to talk & you have my number!
