Chill symptoms and conditions

28y married for 7 years with 4 kids and my life has changed i thought for the better from PATCH to nuvaring .....oh my god.. i woke up like 15 minutes ago with chill's and a itchy feeling between my legs, HIVES. I have flipping hives between my legs... i read all the side effect of an allergic reaction and rash was on there... as i read on .. discharge ( which i haven't had before?)... i googled NUVARING and BAM! all kinds of side effect that they don't list 1. no sex drive 2.moodiness , im not trying to wait for the spots on my face... this is my second month... i hate birth control, but i really cant afford another baby....i want my body back

I WAS GIVEN AVELOX AFTER I HAD A SINUS INFECTION WITHIN A COUPLE MONTHS. I WAS ALSO PRESCRIBED PREDNISONE. THE FIRST DAY I TOOK THE AVELOX I RAN A FEVER. I STARTED THE PREDNISONE THE NEXT DAY. I FIGURED I WOULD FEEL BETTER ONCE THE AVELOX KICKED IN. HOW WRONG. IT TOOK ME THREE TRIES THE NEXT DAY TO GET THE DOCTOR ON THE PHONE BECAUSE I HURT SO BAD. EVERY MUSCLE, EVERY JOINT IN MY BODY HURT. I DID NOT MOVE OFF MY COUCH. THE DOCTOR TOLD ME HE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT BUT I COULD MAKE AN APPOINTMENT THE NEXT DAY. MY MUSCLES HURT SO BAD AND THE JOINT PAIN WOULD GO FROM ONE TO ANOTHER WITH WEIRD CHILL LIKE FEELINGS AT TIMES. MY MUSCLES IN MY ARMS AND LEGS WERE VISIBLY SHAKING WHEN I RETURNED TO THE DOCTOR THE NEXT DAY. HE BLAMED THE PREDNISONE. BUT TOLD ME AFTER A DAY OFF OF IT IF I STILL DIDN'T FEEL RIGHT TO STOP THE AVELOX. YA THINK? THREE DAYS LATER AND I AM STILL IN PAIN. AFTER 4 DAYS OFF WORK I HAD TO RETURN AND I HURT ALL OVER. DURING THAT TIME I CRIED FROM THE PAIN. MY STOMACH HURT, AND I WAS NERVOUS. I THOUGHT MAYBE I WAS LOSING MY MIND I HAD SO MANY DIFFERENT SYMPTOMS AND HURT SO BAD. WAS SO GLAD I FOUND THIS SITE. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO SUE THE DRUG COMPANIES. I WOULD LIKE TO SUE THE DOCTOR TOO.

Hey, I totally know what you all mean about the personality changes. I was on NuvaRing for about 6 months. For the first few months the ring was great. I gained a tiny bit of weight (maybe a couple pounds) but nothing crazy. I am slim with a tall frame, so while I was a bit bummed, it wasn't the end of the world. And my boobs got bigger which was cool, lol. I didn't have any physical side effects with the ring. No cramps, my periods stayed pretty much the same, no spotting, no weird infections or irritation. Just normal. but the mental side effects have been so out of control lately that they have been interfering with my relationship. I used to be totally go with the flow, chill, happy go lucky, outgoing, and very confident. In the last few months my self confidence has dropped to zero even though I am doing well at work and life, etc. it's like I think everyone is out to get me, and it has gotten progressively worse. I cry at everything, have mood swings, depression and the paranoia about the boyfriend (even if he is going to study with a male friend I get jealous! Lame!) I was starting to wonder if I had suddenly become bi-polar until I figured out it was the ring! I still had a sex drive, but it was harder to get fully aroused. It's like I wanted to have sex, but it wasn't as good. So I took my ring out today and my boyfriend and I are going to research our options. The Pill does the same things with me. condoms make me a little nervous as to their effectiveness, though we will be using them for now until we find something else. I'm thinking of going with the copper IUD, as there are no hormones in that one but it is still very effective. My main concern with the copper IUD is the physical side effects (irregular bleeding, super heavy periods, etc.) but as I have not experienced any physical side effects with other forms of birth control, i'm hoping it won't be too bad. Ah, the struggles of womanhood!

I've taken Ultracet for about 4 years almost every day, morning and night time and sometimes in the afternoon depending how severe my pain is. I take 2 pills each time. It does help take the edge off my pain. My doctor said my Fibromyalgia is as bad as it can get, plus I have severe arthritis through my whole body. I can hardly stand up straight and trouble walking. Ultracet seems to help better then Ultram for me. I'm concerned about how long I've taken Ultracet and damaging my liver or other organs. Does anyone know how long you can continue using Ultracet before it does damage. I'm very concerned about that issue because it does somewhat help with pain. I haven't noticed any side effects using Ultracet. If anyone knows how long you can stay on Ultracet without any harm, please post your knowledge or experience. Should I also have my blood monitored periodically?

I was on aviane for 2 months and then switched to the generic brand lutera. While on both I experienced severe anger problems, and I am definitely a very chill/laid back person. I became very snappy and the smallest thing would annoy the hell out of me, I felt like I had anger management issues, but I definitely know that it's from this pill because I never had any issues like this before. Also, my sex drive/libido is almost totally gone. I get dry during sex really easily, and this has also never been a problem before.

Thank you all for making me feel as if I'm not alone. I thought this was the way I was supposed to feel. 6 years ago I experienced a sudden heart attack with no symptoms at 42. A new doctor put me on Lipitor about 2 1/2 years ago as a precaution. The heart attack was genetic as I was about an 80% vegetarian and walked about 8 miles a day. My mother had her first heart attack at the same age. I always had weight problems as a kid, but slimmed down as an adult. After the Lipitor, I have gone from a 32 waist to a 42, joint pain, sleep problems, lack of concentration and the constant feeling as if I have been run over by a Mack truck. You all are giving me the confidence to go with my instincts and stop taking this med. along with switching to a doctor who will listen to me and not tell me to get a personal trainer of which I cannot afford. By the way, I still walk my 4-6 miles a day even in the snow and rain. For me, it's always been my best form of exercise. Again, thank you all for not making me feel alone.

I had a raging head cold, something that resembled a brocheal infection and a low-grade fever.

I'm on day 4 right now and really don't feel much better. My head has hurt the whole time and my fever has not gone away. This is probably just a flu, which Zpak does not fix, but I got the script because it was quicker and easier than telling me to chill out for the next 10 days.

I wish I could blame my woes on Zpak. I can't. I think it's the nature of the virus that is using my bloodstream to swim laps in right now. Hopefully time will be my ally. If not, this is living hell.

Hi
Am based in Uk,and am 47 yrs old.Was prescribed the wonder drug just before xmas 2006 for muscle inflamation.
Boy.............did i experience the worst xmas ever........was on 40mg (8 tablets a day).....besides making me hyper (where normally i can chill out) this drug made me feel i was losing it.I would have constant panic attacks,where at times i needed to get out of where ever i was and go for a long walk (which didn`t help my muscle inflamation).Felt very claustraphopbic.....everything looked dark.Lost sleep and had mood swings so far out of character that far from being the rational business man i once was i became a dithering wreck.Started having problems with my vision after 7 days and found out that the medicine induced glaucoma.
see what i mean by a great xmas!!!!!!!!!
Have been off the Drugs now for 2 weeks but still having problems with the sleep.Eye pressure back to normal and thankfully starting to regain my sanity back.No longer that hyper but still having mild panic attacks and still can not really sit and chill like i used to.My sleeping pattern is probably 3hrs a night so i am hoping that gets back to normal......... with a help of a few beers (before that is stopped)
New doctors wants to put me back on,but on a lower dose.............never.........have to look at alternatives
sunil

I was prescribed sulfameth/trimethoprim 800 for my Urine tract infection, 2 tablet/day. After the fifth day, I experienced rash over my whole body and fatique. On the sixth day I got a fever/chill. I suspected it's a reaction from the medicine so I stop taking it. I took 2 Aleve tablet and the fever stop. I went to my family Doc and she said the rash is caused by my allergic to Sulfameth, especially if the body is exposed to the sun. She said it's good that i stop using Sulfameth. the rash should go way after couple day. she pescribed Dytan( anti hystamine) to relieve the rash.

Attention ladies...especially Silke: (re: response to femalepara's post)

This board is for posting individual experiences while using Yasmin. Amongst the hundreds of posts stating negative effects...you throw a fit because someone has a good experience. Even if it has only been "2 weeks" that is her experience. I think most people that are reading are not going to take one person's opinion and run with it...there are plenty of negative effects information on this board to make one seriously consider taking this medication. You're post seemed very harsh and uncalled for...as if you are the ruler of this board. Chill out and let people share....it doesn't discount other peoples experience, clearly many women have suffered greatly on this medication.

"This registry is a place to share positive or negative side effects of using Yasmin."

I was prescribed sulfameth/trimethoprim 800/160 TABS for a kidney infection, on wednesday, i took it approximately 8 pm that same night, next day about 9 am i was breaking up i had a rash all over the inner part of my arms, on my thigh down to my feet. next thing i know i am itching all over. went to bed that night i had chills all night long. I had never had an allergic reaction to any medication until now.

Have been taking 500 mg for nine days for stomach flu and it has worked wonders, will finish on the tenth day. Do feel sluggish, gas and slight chill and that is about all. My pill is red

I was prescribed Sulfameth/trimethoprim because of a small infection on my knee after replacement surgery. From the very first pill I have been extremely irritable, the sight of most food makes me sick, I have sweats and once a chill, I have NO energy, nightmares and a general depressed feeling for 10 hours after each pill. I have 2 whole hours I feel normal until the NEXT pill. I am TRYING to stick it out for the full 10 days, since I was told not to discontinue taking it! I will be SOOOOO happy when I have taken the last pill!!!

I was taking Clinoril for some chest wall pains. I was also given an anti-inflamitory and advair. I was also taking some advil. It's like my whole body is freezing up with muscle weakness and twitching everywhere along with some joint and bone pain. I am only 33 years old. I have never had anything like this. I called a family doctor and he said to chill out on the meds and see how that does. I am better today but still in pain.

It tastes terrible but if you drink enough of it, it makes you really mellow and you can just chill and nothing bothers you. You wont care if your coughing or at least you won't notice if you are coughing. They should rename this "Happiness" medicine.

I am a recovering IV drug addict and Seroquel has helped me through alot of rough times. I am also Bi-polar and my attitude has also improved a great deal. I havent gained any weight or lost any for that matter, but I can say that I feel much better when I take the medication. I also suffer from ADHD, SEROQUEL has helped this condition too. I am very greatful to my doctor, if not for this drug I truely believe that I would still be shooting thousands of dollars of Cocaine a week.
I realize there are side effects but for this reason I dont really care what they are, I believe that I can live with them as long as Im not in active addiction.

Thanks for listening
