I was on Zoladex for a bit and had all of those symptoms and more.

It may be worth googling for the prostrap patient info leaflet (PIL)

I had this injection 3wks ago and in last 2days I have been getting like a dead leg feeling whole way down the back of my leg... Also have some shoulder pain but I do get this with my period as well... Am glad you posted this as was wondering myself could it b linked to injections... Had few terrible headaches as well but to b honest jus not sleeping very well... Seems to get quite a few wee hot flushes at nite and keeps me awake...decent nites sleep could cure my headaches!!

I had joint pain, particularly in my hands, and banging headaches in the first few weeks. They did subside after the second injection. x.

Hi am relieved I'm not alone, I too suffer with insomnia, shoulder pain and headaches also depression. I'm due my 2nd injection is due on Wednesday I hope I don't get worse. I spoke to my go about my symptoms and she said its all part of the prostap and just gave me more painkillers and doubled my dose of antidepressants x
