Prostate Cance
"Had my first injection of Lupron 7.5 mg in July; second injection at the same dosage is set for August 21. So far no hot flashes or side effects. Have been taking Casodex simultaneously (30-day supply) which will end shortly. Only side effect from that initially was fatigue, which resolved after 5 days. Decided to insist on 1-month Lupron injections instead of a 3-6 month extended dose as PC support group participants on the once-a-month dose had far fewer side effects. I&#039;m sticking to my guns on this one; MD tried to give me a 6-month dose right off the bat. I&#039;m switching MDs and glad I did it this way. Hope this helps others."
