Looking for people with side effects of Lupron?

I took the Lupron treatment for one year straight from Aug ’06 to Aug ’07. For severe endometriosis. I have now been diagnosed with Hidradenitis Suppurativa – HS. This a chronic and very painful and embarassing skin disease. I also have these: memory loss, no concentration, IBS, brittle teeth, joint pain, acne, depression, severe weight gain, and as of Apr ’08 I am still in a menopause state. My MANY Dr.’s that I’ve been through downplay my symptoms and I’ve found no relief or anyone to talk to. Apparently there doesn’t seem to be a good treatment for HS either. Anyone have similar problems and know where to go for help?

I am so sorry for your situation! I was recently diagnoised with endo (well not completely diagnoised) anyway my Dr want to give me Lupron shots for 6 months…I am seeking a 2nd opinion…I do not want to have those side effects…I have very painful and heavy periods too and I am anemic…I have 6 kids and I would like more someday so I do not want a hyst. but even more I do not want this hormone in my body….I dont know what to do….I am afraid to tell my dr I do not want to take this medcine…I am sorry no one is listening to you have you tried the endo association…they may be able to direct you to the right person….I would also try and call you insurance company the dr.s have a contract with them to CARE for you and keep you healthy…tell them your situation and see if they can help…good luck I am sorry I didnt have a sucess story for you…
