Lupron is terrible! I was given lupron after my lap which discovered endometriosis. I had my second injection last week. My pelvic pain is still here and now the Lupron side effects are killing me. I have insomnia, restlessness, bad mood swings, back hurts all the time, fatigue all the time, depression, headaches, and awful HOT FLASHES. I was not given other options but to take this poison. If I had done my research I would have said hell no to Lupron. It's all about the money...Dr's and pharmacy companies are making the big bucks while most of us suffer. Oh yes, and my blood pressure, which is normally low (110/60) is now up to 150/100. I'm not thinking this is too great for my health. And another sad thing is that the long term effects are not really known. I WILL NOT take another injection. I would rather take my regular endo pain over this in a heartbeat. Don't let them fool you.......Lupron is a VERY BAD thing. Anyone who is thinking about....do you research and think long and hard . Is it worth it? I don't think so... Kelly

At the end of my treatment of lupron depot, the doctor told me that I had High Blood Pressure. I have tried for a year to connect my condition to the lupron. My normal blood pressure was 120/80, but now it is 150/90. I am now taking blood pressure medication to normalize it. I exercise everyday and I eat healthy foods, mostly fruits and vegatables. I gained 15lbs while taking the lupron depot. I'm stuggling to lose the weight and I'm disappointed in the fact that I have to take high blood pressure medication. If there is someone out there who can help me with this condition please email me at Dellamp525@yahoo.com.
