Re: National Lupron Victims networkFrom: anonymous@obgyn.netWed Aug 26 11:49:33 1998
Okay, my turn. When it came time to get my 5th shot of Lupron, I got a triple dose, so when its over, I'll have been on Lupron for 7 months. The endo pain went away immediately, but then came the side effects - hot flashes, sweats, headaches, mood swings, depression - you name it, I have it. So I take premarin to help with the side effects and its also good for the bone loss. I take an antidepressant to keep me from crying all day. Unfortunately, the premarin gave me relief from the side effects, but DR says that my endo is coming back after only 6 months. When I got my first shot, everyone was telling me that Lupron was a wonder drug and that I shouldn't have a recurrence for 5-7 years. Needless to say, I was disappointed when the endo came back after 6 months. My third lap is scheduled for Monday. I've found that the more knowledge I have, the better decisions I can make. For me, Lupron was a disaster, but if it works for others that's great! I'd rather have surgery every three years if need be than be on Lupron ever again!
