Lupron Symptoms

I've had three shots last night. There are 17 more nights of shots left. I wanted to quickly capture the symptoms I'm experiencing.

1) Headaches. The sporadic frequency is odd. I'm noticing them mainly in the early evening although I had one this morning. I've googled it and found remedies consist of drinking more water (I'm already at 40oz a day), tylenol, and possibly eating chocolate (I'm not quite buying this one though). I also read that once the dosage is reduced on Friday that the headaches will subside.

2) Fullness. I'm not sure if I'm actually bloating but my lower tummy just feels full and achy.

3) Not sharp. It's as if aliens sucked the smart and quick wit out of my brain. This may not be a bad thing because I'm such a quick talker. This is making me slow down and think before I speak. Not sure what it does to my writing, so forgive any grammatical errors. I have an excuse.

All in all, I'm happy. I love that we are finally here. I still heart shots... but not shots in the arm maybe because there's less fat in my arm. We're sticking to the back of the thighs.

Love,
Cel.
