I've just been giving the hormone injection Decapeptyl for my still on-going endo pain,i have tried taking the pill back to back for the last 4months but with no joy,the pains are worse and consistent,so my gyne gave me this shot yesterday,its a 3month injection,i was wondering if anyone has any advice on this where people have tried it?,any comments suscess stories,negative/possitive,whatever you've got,i'm open to all comments.
I'm extremely frustrated,as many of you know i'm dealing with this pain for a long time and i am my wits.If anyone out there has tried or heard of this method,pls let me know.Also if anyone knows if it stands as a contraceptive aswel??Thanks in advance

Hi darlin'
I don't know a thing about endo, but I just want you to know that you are in my prayers.
I've a doc appointment today, when I get home I shall try to learn all I can about the meds and endo, tis the least I can do for ya.
Hang in there, someone is bound to know about this med, and what you are going through!!!

Hi there pukiemull. My heart goes out to you. Feel bad that you are suffering like that. I can't imagine how that must feel. (I know I'm a man, but you know what I'm trying to say) I have read up on it, meanig the endo and its no piece of cake, thats for certain. Good thoughts and wishes puckiemull, I'm fairly certain that more of the girls will be dropping in to give you there thoughts and support. Be well my friend, hope it goes somewhat easier for you.

She had catimenial pneumothorax( collapsed lung) due to her endometriosis spreading to her lung, she had to have surgery twice to fix it, basically she had a hole develop in her lung due to a rupture.She got a specialist gave her the shot.basically it's like they put you in medically induced menopause for three months to rid your body of estrogen, which fuels the endo.

Thank you Sweet and Pledge for your kind words!!
Fingers crossed that this will sort me out once and for all,hopefully some will have some experience with it and can let me know about it,there's so much to ask,i did'nt know i would be getting it,if i did i would have wrote a list of qs for him y.day,but i was'nt prepared.It is getting to be such a common condition over here but i dont have many to ask.
Sweet i hope you are ok,let me know how the doc goes,
Hope you both have a good day.
Thanks again
