Well what are the other side effects that are showing up, aside from the blurry vision?

How much Androcur are you taking per day?
Blurry vision can have a lot of causes, get your eyes checked.

i was only taking 75 a day, and i did get my eyes checked, and they are linking it to the drug, which is one of the serious side effects

Kennath:
I am very touched by the concern, and trust me i am not trying to rush things, just looking for the most info and experience. the advice that i have recieved here has always been one of caution and concern. and it was from this site that i decided to do the test drive. Its just one of those things now that either i go forward or stop, my doc who is supportive upto the point of acutally doing the procedure feels that after having the side effect with one anti-androgen i should avoid the other options.
anway thanks again for the advice and i am open to as much advice and counseling as people can throw my away

I would suggest the alternative of depo-provera. I suspect you would have better effect without the side effects. Blanket approaches such as your doctor's of trashing all approaches because one didn't work is rather knee jerk. When one approach doesnt work, try another.
