Hello side effects

Yesterday was day 4 of the Lupron injections and up until then I had not experienced any side effects of this drug.  Not so anymore.  Last night I felt like someone punched me in the stomach.  And when I stand up everything starts to spin a little, which isn't good since I already have bad balance. haha  I can fall over just standing up normally so this could be pretty embarrassing.  Oh well.  The only other side effect is that I haven't been sleeping well.  At all.  I didn't realize until now that trouble sleeping was a side effect and I've been experiencing that since I started the injections on Friday.  At least I haven't had any hot flashes yet!  And at least I've only felt nauseous and haven't actually throw up.  It could definitely be worse!  Hey, maybe since I feel sick I'll eat less and then I'll lose weight (:  There's a light at the end of this tunnel, haha

  1. It's just preparing you for pregnancy, unless you're one of those annoying women who don't get sick when they're pregnant... and if you are I might secretly hate you, I hope that's okay. ;)
