I recently had surgery in January and found out I had stage 4 endometriosis. The doctor put me on monthly injections of lupaneta to get me through to my next surgery which will be a full hysterectomy. My question - has anyone else experienced the feeling of your extremities feeling like they're weighed down by bricks. I'm on my 3rd injection and with each one so far I feel absolutely drained, loss of mental clarity and the feeling that it takes all my strength just to pick up my arms and legs or even walk. Towards the end of my monthly injection, I have a few days of clarity, energy and strength. Then I get the next injection and it's like the vicious cycle starts over again.

I'm on my way to get this shot and want to know if it helps ## Hello, Nel! How are you? Yes, it has successfully helped some endometriosis sufferers, but it may cause some side effects afterwards, such as nausea, dizziness and headache, thus it would be best to make sure you aren't driving, after receiving it. Will you be administering the future doses at home or will your doctor be doing it? ## My Doctors office Thursday ! I'm ready for this to be over ..
