What Does Your Lupron Heafache Feel Like

MaryJC

hi ladies, just here hoping to understand the source of a weird headache I have.

I’ve been receiving lupron shots on a quarterly basis. I honestly don’t recall for how long but prolly close to 3 years, I honestly don’t know. I put it out of my mind so that one day 5 - 10 years later my dr will say your finished with this treatment and can be med free!

So sometime last year or so the chain pharmacies here lost their contract with my insurance. So I switched to a mom & pop pharmacy. They’re great! The only issue is they keep regular business hours 9 - 5. So I was out of my anestrozol for about 10 days until I could take time to literally pick up my meds across the street from my house.

Meanwhile had my injection on Wednesday. Thursday I develop this weird headache. Not really an ache tho. More of a sensation?? Maybe an ache that’s not painful? So hard to describe. It comes/goes. Comes for couple secs then goes. It’s on or near my right temple. Then sometimes just above it and other times just beneath. At bedtime last night didn’t feel it. Overnight nothing. Morning nothing. Step into my office around 9am and there it is. Sometime feel it with a fast inhale, other time if I clench my jaw

Just strange. Only thing that’s diff in my daily routines is lupron but did it having not had my meds. I’ve seen a lot of ladies mention the lupron headache. I’m not prone to headaches and worry if I do get one (obviously by this long post right? Lol). Just unsure what the headache feels like.

Please share. Thank you !
