@georgemc I'm sorry to hear you're stuck on Firmagon. I had 2–3 days of flu-like symptoms after every monthly injection during the 2½ years I was on it, as well as rashes and egg-sized swelling around the injection site.
Here's hoping your monthly acute side-effects around the injection are much milder. 🤞

@northoftheborder Thank you for the input. So far, the only problem I have encountered with Firmagon is fatigue. Had minor swelling in the vicinity of the injection site, but it subsided after 2 days. I don't know how much of the fatigue is due to the Firmagon. It may, at least in part, result from my concurrent proton therapy, which also is cited as causing fatigue.
