Lupron yeah or Lupron nay that is the question.

Thanks for your input. Unfortunately, the pain started three days after my first Lupron shot and have only gotten progressively worse over the last two and a half months. When I called my doctor to voice my concerns, he told me to just take ibuprofen. I've been doing that every day but it only works for a couple of hours. It's much worse in the morning. I can barely function until 2:00 in the afternoon. My next appointment is Sept. 3rd. My guess is he will give me more drugs including Prolia since my cancer has metastasized to my L5 spinal bone.

Ask your doctor to put you on Orgovyx Instead of having a Lupron shot. Orgovyx Is a pill you take every day and if you’re having pain, you could stop taking the pill and see if it makes a difference. With a Lupron shot it’s not that easy.
See if your doctor could put you on Nubeqa. It doesn’t reduce your testosterone and works well to keep the PSA down even though you’re not on ADT.
I must admit, after all these years of listening to people‘s pains getting treatment I have never heard of anybody having so much pain just from ADT.. That’s why you wanna try some other things.
