Dear Peggy, Yes, I've had an hysterectomy (worse decision of my life) and I don't know anything about Lupron but would be interested in finding anything that would help with the pain. I'm leaving your message on the reply so people can follow. Please read the stories on the adhesions quilt and add your own and also check out the archives and past emails espcially from Helen Dynda, she's really great at finding things on the internet. http://www.adhesions.org Love, Sally
