I'm 23 and I was diagnosed with adenomyosis, which is internal endometriosis (in which the endometriotic tissue grows within my uterine wall) I have been on Lupron since Nov 2007. I do not recommend this treatment to anyone unless they are in dire need. Though I am supposed to be on it for 6 months, I will not be continuing Lupron due to the negative side effects I have experienced. I've been experiencing extreme mood swings, from being enraged, on edge, anxious, emotional, or very depressed. I get intense head aches, very nauseas, swelling in my stomach at times as well as stomach pain, blurry vision, achy bones and joints, confusion, hard time concentrating, forgetfulness, insomnia, cramps and pressure...and the list goes on.
Please inform yourself and do lots of research before ever thinking of taking Lupron. I would never do this again, especially after realizing the harmful effects it has had on my body physically and mentally. I've learned to trust that the best people to listen to are those that have actually experienced this drug, rather than those that are trying to promote it. Everyone that I have talked to that has either taken Lupron or knows someone that has, have had the similar experiences to mine.
I'm disappointed about my experience with Lupron, and I would never recommend this treatment to anyone.

I've had Fibromyalgia for a long time. The #1 thing, is to have a positive attitude. Get info. about this disease. Get moving. Start out slowly. Do what you are able to do, nothing more and nothing less. I know its hard to keep moving. But if u dont, ur stuck with no life. I've been down this road too. Get some physical therapy. I have found, for me, that pool therapy is the best. I dont have as much gravity to deal with in a swimming pool. The water seems to hold u up. Get involved in som...

by rose81, 2 replies, updated 1 day ago.I was given the fantastic news that my body doesn't like itself anymore. I don't know when it had a falling out, but all I can say is the course of action to remedy this disease is CRAZY. Taking meds that have more side effects and the restrictions on my daily life, because of the meds, no driving, no salt, no sugar, and little fat in my diet, very little sun. Bathing in skin moisturizer, moodiness, mental confusion, can't work, but expected to continue cooking for family, and cleaning. Which I guess ...

Hi: My doctor has suggested me lupron depot 3.75mg for three months before doing supracervical laparoscopy. I did ask the doctor about the side effects and she said that you might get hot flashes and mood swings. Thats all she said about the side effects. My first shot is on Tuesday April 15/08. After reading all these experiences i am so scared to take them and planning to talk to the doctor again and looking into the abdominal hystrectomy instead of supracervical laparoscopy. Do you guys think that because it is 3.75mg and not 7 or more mg it might not have that many side effects.
