I had the 6 month injection of Lupron 6/30/23 and side effects are miserable. Hot flashes suck, stomach issues, difficult breathing(shortness of breath) are a few of the side effects. I followed the shot with 39 EBRT which just ended a few months ago. This road is not for the faint of heart that’s for sure. One thing that is so frustrating to me who was in great athletic shape for a guy 70 years old is the non responsiveness of your cancer team from the radiation oncologist to the PCP, and somewhat the urologist. I have been sick with stomach issues since the EBRT started having passed out 2 times now, bloated stomach where I look like a 9 month pregnant woman, hot flashes and little appetite. Everyone responds differently from the ADT shot and radiation treatments. I’m not upset with any of my doctors I just want to start feeling better.
Wish all you guys the best, and for you that say that during radiation you were told you needed to drink more water, NEVER guys did I get told that! You obviously weren’t drinking that much water. I know, during my 39 EBRT I figured it out!
