Kiki is doing wonderfully now.  I just wanted to thank everyone who wrote
to me with help, advice and support.  I can't say how much it meant to
me.  I believe I have thanked each and every one individually, but in
case I missed some one, thank you so very much.  I have been off line
for 2 days now so it has taken me some time to get back to everyone.
 
This is what I found out from all of you and what happened to me.
 
The reaction has died down, finally.  Turns out that Lupron causes a
temporary increase in the male hormone production that causes my
reaction.  This is nothing new, I have always reacted to adrenal or whole
hobs.  The male hormone makes me break out.  Just never like this last
time!  I was already reacting from the adrenal disease, and the added
male hormone from the Lupron made it much, much worse.  But only for a
short time.  I panic very easily and having my eyes swell shut really
threw me for a loop.  I am feeling much calmer now that I know what
happened.
 
Thanks,
Shelley
