Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Does Lupron Injection Cause Weakness In Calves And Thighs?
I received 2 Lupron injections July and October, 2011. I feel that I am having possible side effects including weakness in my calves and thighs. My PCP did recent lab work and I had low Hbg (13.1), mildly low RBC (4.14), and mlldly low ABS LYMPH (1.4).
Based on the history you seem to have developed symptoms suggestive of anemia apparently caused by Lupron. Consult your doctor for further evaluation and also to rule out other causes of anemia.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
