Lupron yeah or Lupron nay that is the question.

I do t believe this is the case for everyone. My husband was57 when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, surgically removed, no chemo or radiation at the time. Lupron injections kept the cancer cells from multiplying for 30 years. He just passed away at the age of 88. I feel so fortunate that his doctors felt the need for lupron was greater than the annoying side effects it created.

Sorry for your loss, was he on Lupron the entire 30 years? Wow!
I guess you just sold me on Lupron for my husband who's been on it for 4yrs! We're both young 77s, feel 60, and celebrated our 60th anniversary in April 2025. We just moved from TX to NM & the new Cancer Ctr gave him Eligard instead of Lupron, but that's ok. I studied all about the comparison (retired RN) & it is a good choice. I want us to live 20 more years like his mother did, ha! I sure thank God for forums like this!!!

I think you meant to say that you DO NOT believe this is the case for everyone....
