Hi there.

I do get pain in the tops of my legs and groin. I guess my legs and feet can feel sore and heavy when I've been very bad pain wise for a while and not been out of bed much. I also get sore legs and ankles when my sleep is particularly bad because of pain.

I have recently been experiencing really bad dizziness and sickness, I was due my 4th monthly prostap injection 3 weeks ago, haven't had a cycle for over 5 weeks either. Do you know is the sickness and dizziness due to not being on prostap? Is it a withdrawal side effect?

Xx

Maybe it could be I have been waiting for a follow up appointment at hospital but they are running behind so they said when I phoned I need it sorted I can’t be in this much pain I can bearly move and I have a 19 month old daughter to look after been on prostap pretty much since my daughter was born so I could look after her need thing sorting don’t want to go back to that horrible unbearable pain again xx
