YANA - YOU ARE NOT ALONE NOW

PROSTATE CANCER SUPPORT SITE

 

 

This forum is for the discussion of anything to do with Prostate Cancer.
There are only four rules:

  • No fundraisers, no commercials (although it is OK to recommend choices of treatment or medical people based on your personal research; invitations to participate in third-party surveys are also acceptable, provided there is no compensation to YANA);
  • No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
  • No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
  • Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making

Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

Since this is an International Forum, please specify your location in your post.

Re: LUPRON SIDE EFFECTS

Bruce, as Frank has said - it all depends.......

Like so much else about our disease and its treatment there is never any certainty. In most cases the length of time to recovery is relate to the length of time of the ADT, so there would be an expectation that your recovery would be in a month or two.

The bad news is that in a small percentage of cases the consequences of the therapy are permanent. I hasten to say that the cases reported are usually associated with therapies that have lated for years - a good deal longer than your six months.

Good luck

Re: LUPRON SIDE EFFECTS

Thanks for the feed back. I did have two 3 month injections. I have been patient for over 6 months, I guess I can be patient for awhile longer.
