SECOND ZOLADEX HELP!!!!

[Kittykat8989]

Hey guys,

Looking for some advice, had my 2nd monthly Zoladex yesterday. Started feeling really good about 2 weeks after first, a lot less pain. Today I’ve been having like a “flare” and can only relate it to yesterday’s injection.

Does anyone have experience of this? I’m starting to worry.

Many thanks

Hi

After every Zoladex injection (im currently on 5th of 6) i get a lot of pain and im very tired for a couple of days. However, for me, it does pass by day 3 or 4.

That’s so reassuring thank you! It’s still all very new (& scary) for me!!!

I’m awaiting a second operation to remove 3 nodules and adhesions in my POD so in a lot of pain. Can’t wait to have the buggers cut out lol xx

I’m the stage it is scary but I promise it gets easier. My last one no 5 was the best yet!! I’m now scared as I stop next month then wait for my big op 😱

Best wishes you x

Hey quick question, would you say 4 weeks into Zoladex is too soon to notice a dramatic difference? I was expecting miracles quickly, do I need to be paititent? X

I’m afraid so I’m still having smaller flare ups. I had a bad one 2 weeks ago which was month 4 and needed 2 days off work as I struggled to walk. I’m afraid be patient it takes 2/3 months to see an improvement and it may not be a complete miracle I’m afraid!

Thank you 😘 best wishes for your next op! I’m scared/excited for my next op, it’s such a weird mixture of emotions.

I’m on 3 months of Zoladex but I might see if they’ll extend me to six... will see what my consultant says xx

Hi there, I’ve been on Zoladex for a year and a half now. You do get used to them and will feel a bit ropey after the first few days of each injection x
