I had a little case of pneumonia and the doctor prescribed avelox to me. since the first day i took it i experienced numbness in my legs and i was feeling very weak, i thought those symptoms were from pneumonia so i continued to take avelox. after taking avelox for 6 days i saw my doctor and i told him about everything i was feeling, numbness in my legs and arms, tingling in my whole body(even my lips), and i felt very weak. my doctor gave me some tests and everything seemed to be fine. but i kept feeling really bad, i started to get chest pain. i went to the ER and they ran some tests, they told me i was fine. they told me to go to a neurologist. later that day i read on the back of the prescription and i saw that everything i was feeling i saw as side effects on the prescription. By the time i saw that i have already taken all of the medication. now i'm waiting to see when the side effects will go away. i wonder why any of the doctors i went to didn't know these were side effects from the medication, i will never take this medication again.

Overall, not one positive thing posted by anyone who has been on Yasmin/Yaz for more than two years. Seems that women over 35 have the most trouble-and or/women with possible hormonal changes/imbalances to begin with.

Unless you take action, Yasmin and Yaz will stay on the market for years to come. many more women will get sick and some very seriously so as you will find if you read through this site, the negative and damaging effects are lengthy and continue to grow.
