Lupron treatment and Fatigue...

In early May ‘22, I had the one Lupron shot, a 3-month one.

Shortly after, the hot flashes began ans I soon switched my AD meds to Venlafaxine and the hot flashes subsided.

I had no more Lupron shots.

Aug 23, ‘22, I had the RALP and the catheter inserted. I had two bladder spasms one afternoon about 6 days later. I was told this was not unexpected. The catheter was removed a few days later, with no ill effects.

I have not noticed any side effects from the Venlafaxine and I continue to take it as my AD medication.

Best of luck to you!

Thank you. I may try again.

Appr4eciate. My wife has to keep the house very warm so I'm dreading the hot flashes as much as anything. Your tip on the Venlafaxine will hopefully help. I will probably get my first 3 month shot later this month or early Feb. Take care.
