Joint pain has increased since I posted this on April 25th and the naproxen is not helping much .I just went for the second injection of Lupron this past Friday and I questioned the nurse at my Drs. office about this and her first reply to me was that joint pain was not GYN related. I told her that what was in question was whether it could be related to the Lupron and she told me no.I guess she needs to read up on the possible side effects.Any way I had also mentioned in the April 25th post that the pelvic pain has increased since starting the Lupron.It seems like it is getting worse instead of better.Maybe because of the other aches and pain I am having is making the pelvic pain seem worse ?Another thing is that I am having breast tenderness.To remind you I have had a hyst and BSO and doing lupron because Dr. thinks I have ovarian remnant.Have you seen this in your practice? My breasts haven't felt this way since my lst period in April 1998 before I had the Hyst.What could this be caused from?I know that some Drs. give add back estrogen to off set the side effects but I don't think this is an option for me.Thanks for any advice you can give me on this. Peggy

>>>Sorry ,One other question I had was I am having pain in a lot of the joints..ankles,knees,wrists and elbows Is this related to the Lupron? I am taking Naproxen and hydrocodone for the pelvic pain which does help some with the joint pain alsoThanks again.Peggy
