In reply to Re: Anyone ever taken Lupron shots?, posted by tooomuchpain on August 15, 2005, at 9:22:44
glad to know im not alone. I am taking it in conjunction with northindrone acytate and radiation treatments for ovarian cancer. It started as endometriosis and polycystic ovarian disease- just got out of control, very quickly. Havent had hot flashes yet ,only had two shots, but let me tell you i have become a bitch! One minute im fine, the next I am bombarded with anxiety like symptoms and am severly agitated. I wouldnt blame everyone if they didnt want to be around me right now. Im afraid it will only get worse. the bad thing is feeling like i do not have any control since it is a chemical thing i cant just will myself out of it. Ask your doctor about the northindrone. It is usually given in conjunction with lupron to help with the hot flashes... been trying to work with my psych. dr. to try to find some AD that may help with my moods but so far nothing has helped. Anything work for you? What do you do to combat the mood swings? Are you bipolar? My psych. dr. said ppl who are have an exceptionally hard time. Did yoiur first series of shots not help you is that why you had to do another 6? I hope I dont have to, this is just crazy. Thanks for responding, its nice to know im not alone!
