Re: stop the lupron--out with the ovaries

Sassey, it was the easiest surgery I ever had and I've been fortunate with very few ummangeable side effects.
I had some hot flashes frequently for two months or so but overall I have no regrets and the side effects became easier as time went on.
good luck with your decision
