If I were you I would consider stopping the lupron if you are already
having joint pain after two shots. Lupron can cause severe problems
with bone denisity and can have permanent irrevesable damage on your
body. I do not mean to scare you, but it scares me that you are having
pain so quickly. Please do research on lupron in the next month before
you get your next shot.
