Hi Guys and Gals: (all inclusive on this forum)

Waiting for my blood test results three months after my first injection of Zoladex.  I see my Dr. on Thursday for my second, three month injection and results.  I am nervous because I have had none of the customary SE of HT.  Would I have them after three months or are they yet to come?  I'm hoping that the HT has not only lowered my PSA but also my "T levels".  As I had very little adjustment to Zoladex, I fear that my results will be very disappointing. I will post them after my visit to the Dr.  Anyone else out there experience this situation?

I can only, say, good luck, with this test, and whatever is on your path ahead.

Should work well for you and you got lucky with no side effects? (nice)

I had a couple of Zoladex shots and it took a while for the side effects to really become noticeable....mostly hot flashed and loss of libido. It's been over four years since treatment, but seems to me it was more toward the second shot around three months before I had the SEs.

I do know everyone is a little different - not sure if there's a correlation between HT SEs and overall success. Good Luck!
