I received a Lupron injection on Feb. 16, 2005. The depression in which you suffer is not directly related to the Lupron. The first time you get a Lupron injection, it takes up to 2 weeks for the symptoms to totally adhere to your body. I too am depressed. The situation, w/ dealing w/ endo, is quite horrible. Please see a good doctor to find out what exactly is going on w/ you. We all want you to be safe. Take care and good luck. >
