Hot Flashes 4 Years Post Single Lupron Inj

Posted by maxvt @maxvt, 6 days ago

I was diagnosed 3/22 and had 1 3-mo Lupron shot 4/22 and RALP 8/22; had hot flashes then that were lessened with 37.5 mg Venlafaxine 2x daily. Having more killer “Thermodynamic Disfunction” episodes (Endochronologists don’t treat hot flashes, but do work with hormone imbalances resulting in “TD”) now, some necessitating the removal of clothing or bed covers. Often I sit in front of a fan. By this time next week, I will have met with a hematologist and my urologist concerning hormone imbalances. And yes, I am still on the Venlafaxine.

Is anyone else experiencing these symptoms a few years AFTER a Lupron shot?

Thanks Jim! Yes, I'm only about a month past the expiration date of my last 6 month shot. Same side effects but I'm not expecting anything until later in the summer like you said. Thanks for the post, I appreciate it!!
