After Lupron Injections

Mom2Sarah

I know this has somewhat been discussed, but I have questions about after my Lupron injections. Tamoxifen was not for me and I was either going to end up in a psyche ward or divorced, or both! Ha! So my oncologist put me on Lupron injections along with daily meds. I will have my last injection in two weeks because I'm having a partial hysterectomy on September 10th. My question for those who have had the injections and experienced tingling in your fingers/hands, did that eventually go away after you stopped the injections? It's still better than the Tamoxifen? But the more I'm on the injections, the worse it seems to get. I know it's not carpal tunnel, I never had the tingling in my hands until I started the injections. It's just increasingly getting worse and more annoying. Oh the joys of breast cancer!

Hi- I was on Lupron for a year and had plenty of weird side effects that went away once I stopped. I hope the hysterectomy surgery goes smoothly and you find more physical comfort. If you’re taking an AI you may still experience SEs until you’re off them. Good luck to you.
