@hopeful33250 I see you were directing your question to @dadcue, but I figured I'd add my 2 cents. My 1st injection was June 11th. Since then my symptoms of severe flushing and pain in the liver area have subsided greatly. I'm waiting to get the results of a recent blood test to check chromogranin levels to see how effective the initial Lanreotide injection has been.

I had my first injection a month ago and my second injection is tomorrow on July 9th.

No problems with the first injection ... I can't say for sure that anything changed but I hope Lanreotide does what it is supposed to do. I'm also hoping I don't have a need for surgery. I see the surgeon again in December.
