This Drug has been a living hell. I was a health vibrant mom of 4 other than the endo keeping me down during my cycle. I had a 6 mth round of Lupron 2 yrs ago for endometriosis. Then a hysterectomy followed and am now on my 2nd round 5th mth of Lupron. The bone and joint pain is a constant hell. Sleepless nights...diabetic... high blood pressure...fibro symptoms...depression...concentration and thinking ability impaired..and memory is shot. Constant struggle with life since my dr brought this drug into my life...with the assurance it would only cause moodiness and hot flashes. Praying this poison will be investigated!!REPORT COMMENTS

I used Lupron for infertility - I have now had my thyroid removed (2 times - first was partial followed by the remainder after growths came back) and I have battled with other endocrine and additional fertility issues. No family history of any of it - gained 40# in 3 months following Lupron, and have never been the same since, was fine prior to injections. Only "side effects" were supposed to be moodiness and some discomfort - all to go away when done with Lupron. Not even close to being true.REPORT COMMENTS

I had injections at least ten years ago. Since then I have joint pain along with neck and lower back disc issues. Now I am wondering if it is all due to the Lupron injections.REPORT COMMENTS

Took Lupron for ivf. This was 7 years ago. Depression and anxiety with pain and joint problems have made me into a unproductive person. I was vibrant, full of life and always on the go. Now, I can barely motivate to get dressed and go about my day. My marriage is suffering and I'm at my wits end! Please investigate these long term effects after using this drug. I need help!REPORT COMMENTS

3 Lupron Depot shots for endrometriosis in 09/10 recommended by my OB/GYN. These shots have robbed me of my life. 27 years old now with POTS and fibromyalgia. More bad days in bed than good days. Wish I had never had the shots!!REPORT COMMENTS

Horrified I'm just a week away from getting my first Lupron inj. No research I've done has said this drug is safe. I'd rather put up with debilitating endometriosis than to have tried this drug. At least I know what to expect with endometriosis, I've dealt with it for 11 years before surgical diagnosis. There have been some people who say the side effects weren't that bad for them, but why in the world would you even risk it? We should have more information from our dr's. Why would we trade the problems we face with endo and other health issues we may be facing for a whole new slew of ones on top of that? I already suffer from depression,panic disorder,high blood pressure, severe endo pain. I feel like I'm one of the lucky ones who stumbled across this petition! Thank you everyone for telling your stories!REPORT COMMENTS

I had an injection of Lupron for menstrual pain and possible endometriosis when I was 25 years old. One day after the injection, I felt fatigue and soreness. As time progressed, I could barely move my fingers. Both of my pinkies ached terribly. I lost so much weight. My doctor sent me to a rheumatologist. I tested with a high RH factor. He was very proactive and encouraged me to take medicines because he was fearful that I was possibly going to end up in a wheelchair. At that point, I decided to wait on medicine. After a few months passed, I began to improve. I truly believe the Lupron was beginning to dissipate out of my system. I was retested for RA 3 months after the initial diagnosis and injection of Lupron. The factor had decreased, and I went into remission. It is now ten years later. I have two children, but I struggled for all ten years to have children. My joints still ache every now and then, but I am still in remission. Although I worry it will return, I am tired so much of the time. I have never felt the same since that injection. I recall my doctor assuring me that Lupron would improve my periods and cure my endo if I had any. I regret trusting my doctor, and ever since I have always been more skeptical of doctors' decisions in my family's lives.REPORT COMMENTS

I have had one Lupton 11.75 and was scheduled for my second next month. After calling my doctor twice and a visit, I will not be getting a second shot and having a hysterectomy in December. I was having severe leg and hip pain with numbness in my hands along with numerous other side effects. The doctor would not treat me, said these were not side effects of the drug, and sent me to my general physician. The second doctor told me to get off of this shot immediately since it has now caused neuropathy in my legs and hands. My life is worse now than the endometriosis. Lupton has ruined my life. It is a horrible shot that should be taken off the market.REPORT COMMENTS
