I am in the same boat as your friend who had severe side effects. I stopped Lupron at 4 months and believe another month would have killed me. It took 4 months after treatment stopped before the side effects began to subside. At 5 months they are about 50% of what they were with 24/7 sweats and headaches plus brain fog, frequent urination, and joint and muscle pain. I exercise a lot for an 83-year-old and can do more than most men my age. My PSA at 1 month and 4 months were < 0.1 while testosterone were 6.9 and 8.7 respectively. I was Stage T3b, PSA 11.0, and with Gleasons of three 3+4 and one 4+ 4 out of 12 samples. I will get my third PSA test in a month.
