anyone dizzy on Lupron? Rash?

Is this common? Dad started Lupron back end of November. Developed a rash at Christmas time that has not gone away (despite topicals and steroid), and he’s dizzy. In addition to not sleeping well and significant GI issues one month after completing radiation. He is just not feeling well. Seeing all sorts of doctors and feel like nothing is working. He’s getting depressed. 😔 any insight appreciated.

I have been on Lupron for over ten years and have had mild rashes from time to time. Recently I had a bigger itchy rash which my PCP said was an allergic reaction but I do not know if it is from the Lupron.

My husband had a rash and darkened skin from the radiation but it went away after a few weeks. He used calendula cream on the rash. It’s available over the counter. I know that lupron can make you dizzy, but if you say he is having GI issues maybe he is getting dizzy from being dehydrated if he is having diarrhea? My husband had GI issues during and after the radiation but it begins to subside. He started taking a high potency probiotic called Visbiome and it is helping a lot. The intestines become inflamed and irritated from the radiation.
