Adavan symptoms and conditions

I have asthma and have been prescribed prednisone several times for it. Every time i take it i break out in an awful acne looking rash all over my arms and my chest and sometimes even my face. it doesn't start until about 3 days after i have started the medicine and it doesn't go away for about 2 weeks and it itches the whole time. I told my doctors that every time they would try to prescribe it and they did not believe me they said no one could be allergic to prednisone but it has happened to me 6 times now and it has never happened before i had prednisone or on many other medicine since then.i finally got them to switch the steroid to a different kind but every kind seems to do it. i had to refuse steroids the last time i was in the hospital for my asthma they just would not accept that i could not take the medicine.

Hi everyone! To answer the questions about the hair loss, it will stop. I started losing my hair about a month after stopping the Yamsin (August 2004), I have noticed in the past few months that my hair is getting thicker. I had lost about half of my hair. My beautician told me I am lucky that I had thick hair because if I didn't I would have had obvious patches of hair loss! I am NEVER going on bcps again!! My husband is going to get a vasectomy soon. I am lucky that he is so understanding and don't think that I just a crazy women! It's been almost a year and a half and I still suffer from side effects especially the week I am ovulating. Anxiety, depression, negative thoughts, heart palipitations and my face is constantly flushed. My dr put me on Zoloft May 2005 and it seemed to help for a while but I think because its the hormones that are my problem it isn't really working anymore. Adavan works much better when needed.
Stay strong ladies!!
Oh, I had to laugh at my husband the other night, he thinks we should all band together and sue the pants off of the makers of Yasmin!

First was diahrea
weakness
strange feeling
the worst was the extream high then the extream low,
I would laugh then I would cry then paranoia this seem to last for hours altho I am sure it didn't. I would say stupid things. I would ask people if they wanted to dance. I had a cigarette and I asked if I smoked.

I was very aware of what I was saying and doing but had no control over it.
I told my husband to call the drug store and tell them I had a reaction the the cough medicine, they gave him a number to call and and ambulance was sent to my home, I was taken to the hospital and injected with adavan and and came down immediatley. I slept from 5pm to 5 30 am and fine the next day
