    I started Tamoxifen about 6 months ago and have been tolerating it well.  I added Lupron about 3 months ago and started with headaches.  Now I have a wierd dizziness/vertigo thing. Anyone else with this side effect?  I can work with the headaches but the vertigo is rough.

    I am in a similar position, started both Tamoxifen and Lupron about 1 year ago and aside from a little weight gain, experienced very few side effects. Now I get terrible headaches after my Lupron injection, as well as a little dizziness and my onc told me its par for the course. I only have 1 more year of Lupron and 4 of Tamoxifen so I hope it goes away with the Lupron....  Good luck!

    Ladies,

    So glad you brought this up... I never put the two together. I have been on both Tam and Lupron for over 2 years, I never use to get headaches but find myself with a headache once a week. Also have gained significant weight and dizziness comes and goes.

    Hmmm. not sure if it is tied to the drugs or not but good food for thought

    Well...I'm almost afraid to say it, but no major headaches and no dizziness after the 3rd Injection.  Maybe I am adjusting to my post-menopausal life.  I hope so....
