Hello @susan481 and welcome to Mayo Connect. I'm sure your partner appreciates you reaching out for information to help her as she adjusts to this new treatment. Has she contacted her doctor's office to see if they have any recommendations for the side effects? If not, this would be a good place to start.

We have a discussion group with posts about this topic. Here is a link to that discussion,
--First Lanreotide Injection
https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/first-lanreotide-injection/
Many members speak of the side effects. For most, the side effects do lessen as the treatment continues. There is one post from @stevestenberg31 (https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/1122213/) where he discusses dietary changes he made in order to lessen the side effects. Feel free to review the posts in that discussion group and if you hit, "Reply" under a post that is of interest to you, you can post a question or comment to any post. By clicking on "Reply" the member will be notified of your comment or question.

How long ago was your partner diagnosed? Have there been any other treatments suggested?
