Feeling isolated...

I started my zoladex & livial treatment last week and have since had such bad pain and heavy bleeding that I'm struggling to cope with it all. The pain in my joints and back are so bad today that I haven't been able to go to work. They made me feel awful...like I'm some sort of skiver. When I initially told them that I would be having this treatment they seemed really supportive but now that its actually happening its the complete opposite. Has anyone else felt like this? I feel really fed up and lonely so any advise would be helpful!

Hi really wanted to reply as nothing worse than feeling isolated and alone. I have had prostap and livial nany times and each time been different taking different times to be effective I suggest really trying to stick with it I know it's not easy when you are in pain xx best wishes :-)
