Lupron Effects

I just started taking Lupron and I feel so tired, I don't even feel like doing anything. It really hits me in the morning when I first get up. Do you think its due to the Lupron??

It could be. I got very teary eyed on lupron, and that seemed to go away when I started my stims

I agree with shelly............ I was very weepy and then it did get better with the stims........

i beleive ppl respond differently though so you could just be tired as a symptom........ =) i hope it gets better

I noticed when it was the weekend and I didn't have anything going on, it was very easy to get sleepy and nap. But on the days I'm at work and busy, it doesn't phase me. I started stims today and decreased the lupron, so hopefully things get a little better for me. fingers crossed.

YES!!! It certainly does.

When i took Lupron last year for my first IVF cycle and then again for my FET it knocked me on my feet BIG TIME!! This time around my protocol was switched up so i wasn't on Lupron and it made a huge difference. I wasn't tired at all.

Just remember that the lupron is only temporary. Good luck!

Lupron can do lots of crazy things. I had a constant headache that got worse and worse and worse each day as my hormone levels dropped from the Lupron. I didn't like Lupron though I understood why it was necessary. Next time I'll ask about other alternative drugs because I know there are others out there that work similarly like Lupron.

Oh yes. I slept all the time when I did Lupron for the first time.

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
