Brief Answer:
Why Are You on Lupron?
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for contacting us.
I'm not exactly sure why you are on Lupron. Can you please share the reasons for this treatment with me ?
Lupron wouldn't cause weight loss. The reported weight loss is probably caused by a different disease condition. You may have a disease condition that breaks down too many calories/cells causing this.
Like you mentioned; eating high caloric diet rich in proteins and vitamins is the best way to go. If your appetite and digestion is up and good; only increasing intake would be able to help most.
I hope to hear back from you soon to understand the cause of this weight loss for a more targeted advice.
Regards
