zoladex and bloating

[Welch16]

hi will try to keep this brief, I’m on zoladex injections and taking hrt, I’m on my 5th one now, side effects in beginning were really bad aching like having the flu, extreme tiredness where I have to take naps now! Its effecting my day to day life, last month I’ve been really bloated to the point I look pregnant, feel really uncomfortable feel bloated from my ribs just all over if that makes sense, and been feeling very sick, where I brush my teeth and feel like I’m going to be sick. Had to cancel work some days as I feel so ill. Can’t really eat much because I feel like my tummy will burst! Finding hard to go to toilet no 2 but I really need to! Not sure why I feel like this now 5months in. Not sure what to do. Anyone else feeling the same? Please help xx

Oh thank goddess someone is experiencing this too! It’s awful isn’t it? Not sure why I feel like this on 5th one when I never had this bloating and discomfort before, only when I was having endo flare ups. I’m now experiencing pain on my right lower side again and lower back pain groin pain, luckily I’m self employed and work from home, but it’s still a day to day struggle xxx
