dVH/RALH: Upcoming hysterectomy: Lupron Any one feel more anxiety than normal

Hello Sisters,
I was given my first shot of Lupron two weeks ago to shrink fibroid I am having real bad anxiety almost into panic attack mode. This has never happened to me before The doctors sort of shrugged it off and told me to hang in there but these panic attacks are starting to get bad any one else ever have this happen to them ?Should I get meds or try to wait it out Dont feel like having a heart attack while waiting for surgery

Hi joy4ft9 -

Your emotions, fears, and freakouts are very normal. This surgery is difficult to digest and process. I do not know if Lupron adds to this or not. Sometimes doctors will provide something to help you relax - it just depends. Here also is an article that might help: Coping with Anxiety and Fear before Hysterectomy.

Know that you are not alone in this, and we are here to help and support you.

Thank You for your kind words I am feeling better and keeping the faith
