Cranky person symptoms and conditions

After reading other people's experiences with Norvasc, I realized that my symptoms are almost identical. I thought it was rheumatoid arthritis and asked my doctor to give me some tests and all came back negative. I started 5mg of Norvasc about 10 months ago and about 6 months in I started to get muscle spasms in my feet, then spasms and muscle twitching in legs, arms and hands. Extreme flushing in feet, small freckle-like rash on feet, lower legs and ankles. Also have what I would call chronic fatigue and just cannot get myself up and down stairs well. I'm 57 and feel like 100. All over body pain is very debilitative. I've gone from an active, happy person to a cranky person in pain 24 hours a day. So, now I have taken myself off Norvasc and am waiting to see if there is an improvement in my health. I'm still on coversyl for my blood pressure and will talk to my doctor again. It is so true that you must be your own health advocate and try to stay on top of all your health issues.

I'm on pack 3 of Loestrin 24 and I've had a lot of the same symptoms everyone else is having. The first month was cool, but the second month, I think I had bleeding that ranged from spotting to a full on period for the entire month! It really makes you into a cranky person because you can't have sex and you are constantly bleeding, and having to wear a pantie liner. How annoying is that! Now that I'm on my 3rd pack, I'm on week two and just got my period 2 days ago...so I'm sure I'll now have my period for the next two weeks, and it will continue after the brown pills. I also wish I had started these pills during the week, because I don't want to constantly have my period on the weekend. Plus, it didn't help with acne at all yet. I'm headed to my doctor on Friday to discuss all this, but it seems like after this hump, things get better....let's hope.
