Would be really interested to know more about this drug Elagolix -are you in the UK?

in reply to daffodil

oooo. Never heard of it. Is it to kill/shrink the endo, or for the pain?

Heart123 was on it - use the search box on the green bar and type in Elagolix to find her posts and send her a private message.
