J'ai reçu 7 piqûres d'Enantone, avec des effets secondaires connus, et d'autres, plus inquiétants, qui n'étaient mentionnés nulle part. Alors je me suis consciencieusement empoisonnée sans savoir le risque je courais. Aujourd'hui ça fait 4 mois que j'en ai fini avec l'Enatone, et je souffre toujours de myalgies, arthralgies et d'un syndrome sec très sévère. Ce médicament est un poison, il faut que ça se sache.
I finished taking Lupron 2 months ago for fibroids and now I have cysts, loss of libido, weight gain as my stomach looks like I am pregnant. Haven't had a period since January which lasted 3 weeks. Have back pain. Also bouts of emotional instability. I did not want to take anything that was not natural and was told that it was not a drug. I have found out too late about the dangers.
Because my Mother In Law was given this and has suffered to much from this dangerous drug. The same doctor offered it to me that gave it to her. It is too bad I had to learn how bad it was from the pain she went through. Are you not suppose to be able to trust the meds you doctor gives you!!!
My docteur give to me 2 times enantone during 6 month. Now I am fat, I loose my hair and my nex hair are wight, sine this mornin g I know that I have a problem in my eye .....

I had 2injection of the drug from Hell Lupron and have side effects that I was never told by my doctor, I have back lower back pain, all the joint in my body ache, lack of sleep, memory lose , might swats , hot
Je ne suis pas médecin mais je n'ai aucun doute quant aux méfaits de l'Enantone (Lupron). J'ai une amie qui en subit les conséquences au quotidien. J'aimerais tant que d'autres personnes n'en soient pas victimes. Je suis de tout coeur avec les défendeurs d'une harmonisation de la signalitique des effets secondaires voir de la limitation de sa prscription aux strict minimum prouvé sientifiquement.
I'm lucky enough to be in reasonably good health. But a very dear friend of mine is a victim of this drug. I hope it will be taken off the market soon, to avoid other people from suffering the same effects it had on my friend.
Ce médicament a ruiné la vie de ma fille ; elle qui était si joyeuse, est invalide, incapable de travailler, au lit presque tout le temps, a des douleurs atroces et marche à peine. Elle a dû arrêter ses études ; sa vie est finie avant même d’avoir commencé. Mais quand les médecins ouvriront-ils les yeux ? Faites une association et demandez des comptes !
After my dads last shot he has been nauseous and in a lot of pain, (he has taken before and only got hot flashes) I cant find any information on this drug other than that of the corporation. People need the facts and places to turn to to find them...
I was on lupron and had debilitating side affects that still plague me, my health and body have not been right since. I was 18 when I was put on the treatment and am 21 now and have even more problems with pain lack of sleep night sweats and many others since then, please get this stopped! It is the drug from hell,
I've had horrible side effects since taking Lupron and they didn't stop once I stopped the drug. I believe I now have a damaged immune system and I'm not going to be a "healthy" person any longer, and I'm only 42! These problems have been going on since I started Lupron in my 30's.
I recieved 6 shots of Lupron and have suffered from memory loss and fatigue since then. Which was the year 2000. I was never able to regain what I called a sense of the norm to my life. FInally I recieved a diagnosis of Fibromyalgia and work only part time. The pain and faitigue is relentless.If Lupron is to blame then something needs to be done!
I had two injections of Lupron in 1998. A few weeks later I started having seizures and was admitted to the hospital. I was diagnosed with Viral Encephalitis and was confined to a hospital bed for several months. I lost the ability to speak, write or even eat on my own. I am obviously doing better now, but I still have frequent seizures. I can no longer drive. My memory is shot. And I've spent thousands of dollars to cover the cost of the prescriptions to help control my seizures.
LUPRON IS BAD!
I was put on lupron after 2 emergency surgeries.The doctors who are pushing this evidently do not have a family member or have not taken it themselves.They said I would have hot flashes and not cycle but after 6months of shots I have more than that.I have severe leg pain, my foot broke from just walking,I suffer from nausea on almost adaily basis. I have terrible headaches and when you complain to the doctors they act like you are crazy.
I had two rounds of Lupron - 18 mos the first time, 6 months the 2nd. I began them when I was 24, and healthy, other than the endometriosis. Since then, I've gained 80 pounds (with no change in diet or exercise), I have constant migraines, osteoporosis (at 28yrs old!!), and HORRIBLE joint pain. My mood swings are still significant (not as bad as while on the drug).
Note: it's been almost 3 years since my last shot, and no side effects have gotten any better. I fear I will suffer with all this forever.
Very scary drug!
I had a 3-month injection in Oct 1999 and none of my side-effects have gone away. They are only increasing and I am afraid I will be on disability soon if something doesn't change. I am only 43 and I feel like I am 73 on some days. I pray we are rewarded for all of our pain and suffering some day. My doctor told me it would only put me in a temporary state of menopause. Well, I trusted her and look at me now. The drug was administered in her office so I was not give the opportunity to read the warning if there were any back then. Lupron ruined my life.
I had three 3-month injections of Lupron between December of 2002 and June of 2003. The last shot caused horrible joint pain all over my body that took an entire year to dissipate. After the eventual recovery, my soft tissues starting to become easily injured and inflamed, not entirely healing. I am now being treated as though I have an undetermined connective tissue autoimmune disorder. I was told I would only have hot flashes, I didn't know that at age 27 my body would be so overcome by this drug that now at 30 I am functionally disabled. My doctor didn't offer any other option for endometriosis other than Lupron injections. It wasn't until I saw another gynecologist in November of 2003 and had a laparoscopy that it was determined that most of my pain came not from endometriosis but from adhesions wrapped around my reproductive organs and bowels from a laparoscopy I had had the year before, as well as a large ovarian cyst. My life has literally been ruined by a drug I didn't even need to take. THIS DRUG NEEDS TO BE TAKEN OFF THE MARKET IMMEDIATELY!
My daughter has had 2 injections of this drug. It has left her with paralyzing migraines and god knows what other problems. It down't seem to help anyone-only hurt.
I was prescribed Lupron by my doctor but after reading in the internet all the bad effects decided not to go through. What bothers me is that my doctor told it was a safe drug, but does not look like, we need more research on this drug and side effects!
I took Lupron for 5 months, and after the 3rd injection things were noticably bad. I lost about 45 lbs, memory issues,unexplained leg pain,other symptoms I never even thought of untill I heard about others with the same issues.Then there were the several synecopal episodes. The episode that occurred after shot 5 happened behind the wheel of a car. The first ones happened at home and only resulted in stitches. Luckily I survived the crash(still surprising to everyone around me), but had the doctor been looking out for my health, he would have taken me off the medicine after my 3rd shot. Something needs to be done about this. The side effects are to me more harsh than what I was taking it for. My kids almost lost thier mother, and I can't imagine my sis having to explain to my kids that it was due to medicine that was suppose to help get their mom healthy.
I took daily shots of Lupron beginning in 1990. I have been ill ever since. I am now totally disabled. Chronic Fatigue, Arthritis, Fibromyalgia, Degenerative disc disease, migraines, Epstein Barr, Blurred Vision, Memory Loss, and on and on... I am only able to be out of bed for about 1 hour a day. This travesty MUST be stopped!
I took Lupron 7 years ago to be a surrogate mother and have had problems ever since. I began having severe, out of control mood swings, depression anxiety, acne, weakness, joint pain, short term memory loss, and now recently discovered that I have a pituitary tumor (noted on studies in rats) and it is causing problems with all my hormones. I have been at a complete loss and then on receiving the MRI results my husband wanted to know what caused it and on going back over my symptoms I related them to starting about 6-7 years ago. He asked what I took then and I told him Lupron, but that would not cause pituitary tumors. Then I started searching the web and sure enough, lab rats showed signs of pituitary tumors. I'm not a lab rat, but I'm feeling like one right now, aren't I?
I had severe hemorhaging after taking Lupron, leading to a stroke with double vision, then deteriorating vision and loss. Severe memory problems, confusion, depression. Bad poison, bad drug, do not take it!
I had 2 injections after which I suffered severe bone pain, confusion and memory problems which still exist. I say we all ban together and start a class action suit. My life as i knew it is over and it broke up my fiance and I as i was always to sick to doanything after the shots in 2004. I took a leave of absence from my job as an ICU nurse because I could not even get out of the bed my feet and bones hurt so bad. If you know anyone who is considering this drug, stop them and get alternative help. God bless you all who have suffered,Whats worse my doctor told me there were no side effects.
I SUPPORT THIS PETITION BECAUSE I COMPLETED SIX MONTHS AND NEVER IMAGINED IT CHANGING ME THIS MUCH!TO MANY SIDE EFFECTS TO LIST IT REALLY HAS CHANGED ME FOR THE WORSE. HAD SIDE EFFECTS FROM THE START BUT DIDNT RELATE SOME SUCH AS BAD LEG PAIN SO BAD IT HURT TO WALK, BLAMMED IT ON A VIRUS ALL I COULD THINK OF AND NOW AFTER READING ON OTHER SITES IM ASSURED IM NOT CRAZY AND MOST OF ALL THERE ARE TOO MANY PEOPLE GOING THROUGH THE SAME THING. I ONLY WISHED ID RESEARCHED FIRST THE LUPRON SHOT AND COULDNT EVEN MENTION ALL THE SIDE EFFECTS.I'M PRAYING THEY GO AWAY AND WILL NEVER NEVER DO IT AGAIN....SURGERY ANY DAY I ALREADY FEEL LIKE IM DYING ANYWAYS!
Lupron has destroyed my life and everyone women should know the devastating side effects before taking this horrific drug. It has ruined my life forever!!!
thanks for letting us know the true facts the woman who wrote in and sharing such personal info, I to have the answers as to why at i feel and think very different
Lupron is in the same league as depo provera, I was poisoned by depo provera (...) Depo Provera is in the same league as Lupron. It is lethal I received 12 shots over three years from the age of 17 years old, it destroyed my health and my physique I am terrified about what the future holds. (...) Questions need to be asked, Stop the silent slaughter, Europe wide World Wide.
I took lupron for three months and am so weak some days I cant get out of bed, terrible cramping and body aches, terrible electrical impulses shooting down my arms and legs, numbness and burning of muscles and when I recd the shot I could feel it move through my body and my muscles would start aching and burning and I would be sick to my stomach for a few days.
After suffering with endo since a teenager, doctor precribed Lupron after 3rd surgery in 5 years. While on Lupron no endo pain, but gained 30 lbs and within six months of last shot started having heart arrthymias that has progressed over two years into simple partial temporal lobe seizures with full stroke symptoms. Feel like I aged 20 years in two. Also endo is back and need 4th surgery. Can't have hysto because of seizures. I'm trapped!
because after only 2 injections my life has been turned uspide-down and I am left with a body of a 77 year old that is actually only 47. The Dr that prescribed it to me had no clue about the damaging side effects from this poison and continues to give it to other patients. The endo is not as destructive as the drug that's supposed to "cure" it!
After only 30 days on this "poison" it has destroyed my health! I am weak, have constant nausea, memory loss, confusion, severe headaches and profuse sweating all the time! I have become useless and need assistance with the most simple tasks because I am so tired! How long does this poison last in your system after only one shot?!!
Prescribing this drug has had severe, life-altering effects on my daughter who has lost a sector of her sight in her right eye and can no longer do the job she was trained to do and which she loved.
The Dr who prescribed it to me does not acknowledge the side effects as continues to prescribe it. I nearly lost my life and am left with permanent visual damage
because I took it more than 13 years ago and still live with the life altering effects. I suffered a stroke, continue to have Complicated Migraines, Chronic Sinsus Infections and other immune disorders, It killed my IGa, I have Jacksonian and Temporal Lobe seizures, bone loss, I went into early menopause. These are the tip of the ice berg. I will be on medication for the rest of my life due to what Lupron did to my brain and body. It was a domio effect...still is. I am internally aging. It HAS to stop!!!! Women cannot continue to suffer like this!
To add insult to injury I still required many, many surgeries and other treatments for my Endometriosis, which it was "supposed" to hlep...but didn't. It only ruined my life.
because more than one year on from my last injection of this drug, I am still suffering serious side-effects. The side-effects have been more disabling than the condition I was being treated for.
