    I had lupron in 2000 and have been diagnosed with insomnia, anxiety, depression, vitamin D deficiency, consistent joint pain, fibromyalgia, degenerative disc disease, CVID, and am a 9 year survivor of Burkitt's Lypmhoma (blood cancer) I still suffer from memory loss and still have facial hair growth that is extremly embarrassing being that it started with Lupron at the age of 18 and continues now at 33. These side effects and adverse reactions DO NOT GO AWAY!!!

    I was given 3 Lupron injections; (1 per month), because of a fibroid tumor. I was unable to return to work since then, and have Fibromyalgia & Chronic Fatigue. It has changed my life Forever! 7 years of feeling like an 80 or 90 year old, and I'm just in my 50's! Something Must Be Done, this medications side effects Do Not out way the benefits, in Any Way, Shape, or Form!!!

    I took 3 cycles off Lupron when I was 26 for endometriosis. 6 months after my last injections I ended up having a total hysterectomy anyway. Over the last few years I have been diagnosed with vitamin d deficiency, osteopenia with fractures, severe joint pain, thyroid issues, sudden anaphylaxis & now I have a cascade of issues that we can't find the causing source! After these reads I will definitely be checking into this. God bless you all

    I took 2 rounds of this shot in 2007/2008 and less than a year later my health started to crumble. As an avid runner I was diagnosed with rare chronic compartment syndrome and can no longer run. Since then I have been diagnosed with arthritis, lupus, depression, anxiety. I have lost so much hair. My nails are paper thin and can't grow. This is just a few things that have happened to me since then. I'm 33 and my biggest regret in life is taking this shot.

    I took this on two separate occasions. My GYN told me this was the only way to relieve the endometriosis pain. After taking the second series of shots my healthy life as I knew crumbled. I have sever anxiety, panic attacks, degenerative disc disease, heart palpitations, orthostatic hypotension, memory issues, depression, joint pain to name a few. Why don't we have the makers of this drug take this medication and see how they respond!!!

    My daughter was on this drug for a year. She now has a myriad of medical issues that cannot be explained and no reason can be found. Hair loss, severe joint pain, blood pressure issues, a possible autoimmune disorder, hot flashes that lay her flat and hit without warning, the list goes on. She has been to so many doctors and none can find out what is wrong. We have since learned that many have these symptoms after having been on this drug. It's time to STOP USING THIS DRUG on men and women!

    This is unbelievable. All drugs have side effects, but these are severely life-threatening, and none of the patients who used Lupron were even warned about it. And now the side effects for some are continuing ten years past their last use of the drug. This needs to be investigated and remedied as well as possible for these people. Unbelievable.
