Are there any endo sisters out there that have been on Lupron?

Over the last few months, I've been on Lupron for endometiosis. I finally decided that I needed a more permanent solution. My last Lupron shot was in early April. I had my LAVH on May 26, 2009. Visited my dr. today for my 1 week post-op and asked her a bunch of questions regarding my recovery. My symptoms are anxiety, shakiness, restless legs, insomnia, depression.
My dr. is did a total blood workup while I was there today -but my bloodwork was normal when I was in the hospital 5 days ago. There is a chance that it's my thryoid levels changing again. Dr. thought the Lupron should be close to being gone from my system...has anyone out there had a similar situation and can share?
As always, thanks for the support!

Re: Are there any endo sisters out there that have been on Lupron?

emyrue,

I was on lupron many years ago. In my opinion, it was the worst drug I have EVER been on. I had just about every single side effect possible.

It's hard to say in your case if the lupron is the culprit. You are still early post op and you may be still be dealing with the healing process at this point. Your hormones are probably still out of whack and need to adjust. And like you said, it could be your thyroid as well.

I am sorry I couldn't be much more help. But, I have been where you are and wanted you to know you are not alone!
