I couldn't agree more with your statement. I received my one and only dose of Lupron in June of 2022 and was not given all the information in regard to how life changing this would be. Although the Radiation/ oncologist strongly encouraged me to continue with the Lupron injections I opted to stop after the first dose. The combination of hot flashes, mood swings and overall depression turned me into someone I didn't even recognize. Never again would I agree to that course of treatment. The radiation (31) sessions was difficult but it has made a significant difference so far. Not a time in my life I would choose to repeat if given a choice. My psa 3months after radiation was 0.11 and now after another 3 months is at 0.03. I feel great and pray each day that I will never have to go through that again! Best of luck to all those that follow in these steps.
