I have recently finished 6 months of Lupron therapy. Honestly it was hell. I had severe migraines, so bad that I went to the ER a few times. I also had hot flashes, severe mood swings and memory loss.
I went to my doctor complaining of these symptoms and she put me on a low dose estrogen patch, Viveldot .0375, this got rid of the migraines and the hot flashes. She also put me on 150 Welbutrin. This helped the mood swings and the memory loss. I am in college and within a few weeks I saw a difference in my memory. You are in NO way experienceing brain damage.
I hope this information helped. If you have any questions at all, about any of my experiences please feel free to ask me. My email address is trishamum@yahoo.com.

I took Lupron Depot for my endometriosis for the past 6 months. My experience with the drug was EXACTLY the same as yours. I had no problems on the drug. In fact, I lost weight and felt great the whole time. This is my first month without the Lupron. I got my period 11 days ago and I still have it. It's a little less painful than it used to be but it never lasted this long! Also, I've developed daily headaches and pressure in the front of my head. I get a painful one every day and the pressure is awful. It even wakes me up at night. Also, I feel like I'm in a fog and I can't think or remember things. Other than that, I have no other "new" symptoms. I cannot stand the feeling that I can't think... I am hoping this goes away as well. I can't live like this. I'm a project manager! Does anyone know if this will go away?

My dad had his first Lupron injection on November 20th and he is having memory loss. He is constantly confused and cannot remember bits of conversations that you just have with him. I was wondering if it might be beginning stages of Alz Heimers, but as I read more about Lupron, I am wondering if the two could be linked???
