Crazy person symptoms and conditions

i went to the doctor for blood work because i was tired all the time, no energy, cold even when it was 80 degrees, and i had breathing problems, so i thought i was anemic. the doc wanted me to have an xray and i got diagnosed with pneumonia. i didn't even know i was sick! so i got prescribed avelox for 10 days 400mg, i feel worse now then what i did before. im extremely tired, i sleep all day, i feel like a stoner, i get dizzy at times and confused. i cant seem to go to bed and iv have dream after dream i even had one about a potato.last night i just started crying about nothing and could not stop then when it was over i just stared off and it was like i was a crazy person. im on the 8th day and im going back to the doctor. oh and im only 18 and i read tests haven't even been done on this drug for 18 - ppl.

Wow, am I ever glad that I've read all of these horror stories!! I am scheduled to have Mirena inserted next month (for the first time) and I was told that it is the best way to go! I am 26 with 3 babes (my youngest being 6 mos. old) and I was just looking for some type of birth control until I get my tubes tied (I am looking at a 1+ year wait). I have tried every other type of birth control and anything chemically induced makes me a crazy person. I wasn't even told that there were hormones in Mirena... that's how much was explained to me! I am canceling my appointment.

I am 30 yrs old, have been taking YAZ for a little less than one year. Loved it at first, my PMDD seemed a lot better, my skin cleared up. (I had adult acne) The decreased sex drive was immediate and after a couple of months I noticed the stomach pains, headaches, and extreme hunger in the mornings as well as shortness of breath and occasional dizziness. I even went to my regular doctor for an inhaler due to the shortness of breath. Since I started this pill to now I've gained a lot of "solid" weight that seems very hard to lose. I've gone from a size 4 to an 8. The only benefit has been that my skin is a lot clearer but as soon as I take the last pink pill in the pack my face breaks out again. This past month I've had horrible mood swings. My anxiety is worse than ever and I overreact to the smallest things. I can't stand myself and feel like a crazy person. While the thought of having acne again makes me very sad, I will no longer take YAZ.

I am not sure if it is the change from Ortho Tricylin lo to this one but after being on sprintec i felt like i was pregnant after the third week. I did get my period the first month on it but it was different. It lasted for only 3 days and I had spotted a few days prior to it. I have been extremely tired, like as if i am pregnant and I go to the bathroom just about every hour, which is not normal. I am nauseated all day long and feel a sense of nervousness throughout the day. I also get dizzy spells and have a higher level of appetite. My period is suppose to be here in 2 weeks, if it is not then I can only think that i am pregnant, but if it does come down i am switching back to the Ortho....this is really bad that a pill can make you feel like you are pregnant as i have heard some of the ladies on the site say so, when you are on a pill to avoid getting pregnant.

This is the biggest relief. I am sure you can all relate finding this website. I started using the nuvaring back in February and the side effects started soon after, I just haven't tied it to the birth control until now. The first month I started using it I was planning to move from my home in boise to Orlando Florida to live with my boyfriend.. which is very stressful so needless to say my high anxiety stress irritability and anger all seemed to be pointing to the stress of moving from my home although it is what i wanted it was still scary. I have been here in Florida for 3 months now and still experience the same things adding one to the mix as living with your boyfriend should spark an instant sex drive when you haven't been living in the same city for a year. NOPE no sex drive at all. Maybe once in a blue moon i get in the mood but i literally have to talk myself into it which is pathetic. There are times when i am laying next to him and i have to tell myself if he wants i should go along with it. but though of sex just drives me away. Also the depression is unbearable I am a very happy goofy person and it is a struggle to keep my temper in check or to try and work up motivation to leave bed. I am constantly tired and have no drive to accomplish anything anymore which is out of my character.
Headaches I have always had and migraines i have had before the nuvaring about once a week now i have migraines at least 3 times a week and a headache every day in between. My breasts have been extremely sore so much that i thought maybe i was pregnant in combination with my extreme mood swings. I have thick hair and i shed a lot never thought that it may be due to the birth control. I am getting somewhat angry that this is the way we all have to find out. It is frustrating to feel like a crazy person and wonder what happened to the person i use to be. I have not experience any weight gain fortunately, but since have no motivation i am not in the shape i once was because i have no desire to go to the gym.
The itching sensation i didn't realize as a symptom before reading others stories. Now it is so clear how aggravating. One month my cramps were so bad and a couple of months in a row i felt so nauseous that i would get sick. One time i was driving to a friends house when all of the sudden i knew i was going to be sick and ended up vomiting all over myself... so embarrassing and i couldn't figure out what happened. Tomorrow morning im calling my doctor to see what we can do. This is my last day with the Nuvaring Thank god for this site and thanks to you all sharing your stories it brought me peace of mind knowing ill be myself again soon.

I had Mirena inserted in June, 2008 after the birth of my second child. I was almost 30. I didn't notice too many side effects until December/January of 2009. My hair was falling out in clumps (worse than it does right after you have your baby), my body ached like I had the flu, I had to desire or energy to take care of my kids, I didn't care what my house looked like or that my laundry wasn't done. The least little incident when send me over the edge - screaming and crying like a crazy person. I felt flutters throughout my stomach (kind of like that of your baby when you first feel it kick) and I would have "lightning strikes" through my heart. All I wanted to do was rest - didn't want to clean, deal with my kids, talk to my husband about my feeling and definitely DID NOT WANT TO HAVE SEX! And in my mind I had already decided that it was depression and so I scheduled an appointment to see my OB/GYN about it. Thank GOD I found this web site before my appointment. I described my symptoms to her and, sure enough, she was concerned that I may be depressed and was probably about to send me on some wild goose chase with drugs and treatment and all of that... Not that there's anything wrong with being depressed - it's a real condition that's easy to find yourself in as a mommy - but it wasn't the case with me. This stinkin' Mirena has made me this way! Instead of opting for her depression treatment, I had the Mirena removed that day. It's been out for about a week now. I've had a couple of days of spotting but OMG do I already feel so much better. The energy level is coming back to normal, I want to be with my kids and it's OK when my husband touches me. For those of you who are considering Mirena as a possible BC method, please reconsider and do your homework. For those of you who have Mirena, please know that you are not crazy, nor have your children/pregnancy made you crazy - you have a foreign object in your body that is screwing up your mental and physical well-being, your family, and your life. I urge you to make a list of all of your systems and talk to your doctor. Don't let them tell you that's it's all in your head or that you're depressed. I'm depressed that more research wasn't done on this "wonder cure" and I'm depressed that I lost a year with my family that I can't get back because Mirena kept me in a FOG! Good luck to all of you...

I feel like I am Demon Posessed! I am a Christian woman who loves her husband and children more than life itself, and in the last three weeks I have turned into a crazy person. I had the Mirena put in three months ago. I had a period or spotting for two and a half months but two weeks ago when that stopped the crazy devil woman showed up. I have never suffered from depression, anxiety, poor self image or rage until now. In reality I am 29, 140pounds and have the best husband and two great kids 2 and four months. my life was better than ever and then all of a sudden in my mind my husband did not love me and was not doing his part to fulfill my needs and my children were more than I could deal with, I was getting hostile impatient angry and depressed I felt ugly, soooooo fat and had no control over my life. I also had suicidal thoughts and I tried to leave my husband. I wanted him to know how hard it was and I wanted him to feel what I was going through, because he was living in the rational and I wasn't I was angry, alone and scared. then all of a sudden I couldn't even remember why I was upset and everything seemed fine. I had a bad go with the pill, I was emotional and a little irrational and insecure but when I went off of it I was fine. I am getting this taken out because even though the dose of hormone is supposed to be small I feel as though I am hitting a wall of intense or (nonexistent at times) emotions. I just kept crying to my husband last night, I want me back... I want me back, and he does too. I also had the headaches cramping and discharge, a yeast infection, itching and weight gain, bloating and I feel like I have no energy, I don't mind having sex but it isn't something I Iook forward to. I feel so very ashamed for the way my husband and children have been treated by me and I will be the first to say that nothing is worth loosing your family, your sense of security in yourself and your sanity. The doctor told me that I might be in post pardom or need depression meds.... NO I DON'T! I don't feel like medicating a medication. And thats what I would be doing. This Was NOT for me and it almost ruined my family. My husband is a great man and if it wasn't for his patience and kindness we would not be doing good right now. I am looking forward to having it taken out. I miss myself and who I am is not this woman of constant sorrow!!! One thought in my mind stands out... If I would have committed suicide, would Mirena have been responsible? In all of my life I have never had thoughts like these and It hurts me to think that there are woman out there who could be acting out in response to this birth control. I felt like hurting my children... I felt like leaving my husband... I felt like killing myself. And This IS NOT WHO I AM. My doctor is taking it out today and she isn't charging me because we have no insurance and she is a very good woman. I am thankful that my story is this and that it didn't get much worse. My sister is on it too and she is having the same problems except she is having hallucinations. I am trying to tell her to get it out but the doctor told her that its the breast feeding. I disagree with that because she has breast fed all her children and this has never happened. I didn't breast feed while on this and I am having crazy things happen. Don't let the doctor talk you out of getting it removed it didn't get better for me over time it got worse.

It's nice to know that I'm not alone..

I got Mirena in November 08, and since then I've developed a plethora of unpleasant side-effects. Initially, I couldn't put them all together. As I'd had a fainting spell and some restless legs a few months prior to getting Mirena, I've been concerned that all of my symptoms were stemming from a nutritional deficiency like folate or b12 anemia. Nothing seemed to quite fit exactly right though, and I take vitamins regularly, so I was perplexed until last night. After googling "tingly feet" and "heartbeat" I stumbled onto one of these forums.

I have felt like a crazy person all of this year, and I am now quite certain that it's from Mirena. Feeling foolish that I didn't see this sooner.. but I guess I we perceive what we want to, and I was happy to have easy birth control.

I've NEVER had heart palpitations, this kind of foggy-headedness, anxiety like this, unexplainable nausea, tingling in my feet, or depression before. My dizziness and fatigue alone had me fearing for my health, and my extreme mood swings had me fearing for my life.

I'm getting this removed as soon as possible.
Clearly I could've done my pre-Mirena research better, but the pamphlet and pep-talk I was given did not mention everything that I've been going through. I'm a little pissed, to be honest.. but mainly relieved.

I think I'm going back to the Nuvaring.. I'd rather bleed than be a dysfunctional, ill, zombie-person.

They think that I have either crohns or ulcerative colitis. I have tried antibiotics, lialda, mesalamine enemas, with no improvement. After another colonoscopy they put me on prednisone at 40mgs, 30, 20, 10, then 5 decreasing weekly. Well the first week was okay. I had some of the side affects, insomnia, extreme hunger, and crazy. I could deal with that. But then when I decreased down to 30mg, my body flipped. I awoke from the middle of the night with burning pain in the knees. So bad I took 4 ibuprofen and threw myself in the tub with epsom salt. I thought okay that was weird because I have never had a joint pain in my life. I saw the gastroenterologist that day bc I was still having abdominal pain. He totally blew off the knee pain and said he had no idea what that was. I thought okay maybe it will go away. A few days went by and nothing. 3 days later and I awoke one morning crying in pain because of my legs. I called the on call doctor who also said he had no idea and go to the er. So I went crying hysterically for 4 hours. Even after 3 rounds of dilaudid I was still in pain. They suggested a Rheumatologist. So I went to one a week later who said I was going through steroid withdrawals. And there is nothing we can do but treat the symptoms of pain. I am now down to 10mgs have been out of work for 2 weeks and am absolutely miserable with severe leg pain, muscle weakness and fatigue. He also adjusted the drop down increments to 5 instead of 10. Anyway I will never take this drug again and I think they rushed to this one. Just wanted to share. I am glad I found this website because I went from a fully functioning physically fit 28 year old to a crippled crying crazy person. I think I was scaring my husband, honestly, until we both read some of your postings which were similar.

I'm SOOO glad I stumbled upon this site. I am 32 and have never taken birth control. I talked to my gyno about getting on the pill and she recommended Loestrin. I started Loestrin the first day of my period. Typically they are 3-4 days max. I usually have really bad cramps the 1st day, sometimes the 2nd, but no pain after that.

I honestly thought I was going crazy bc the 3rd day I was on the pill, I woke up so extremely irritated that I got in a fight with my b-friend, yelled at the jewelry woman at Nordstrom, was yelling at people while driving, and basically acting like a crazy person. I am a high stress person, but never ever like this. I never behave this way, especially to sales associates. It was rather embarrassing, but I couldn't control it. I continued to feel this way for 2 days and now it has become slightly less. I am anxious and irritable and more sensitive (not usually very sensitive at all). I've had continuous bleeding (it's now been 7 days of tampons) and horrible cramping all the way down to my legs. It's really painful and uncomfortable. I thought something was wrong with me - thought about going to the emergency room last night it was so bad.

I will admit that I do love to eat, but I find myself constantly hungry. I eat and eat and eat and can't stop. My stomach is completely bloated. I haven't weighed myself, but feel disgusting.

I called my doctor this morning bc I'm so freaked out, but am waiting for a call back. Luckily I read these postings to find that I am not sick or crazy...it must be the pills.

Does anyone know what happens if you stop taking them suddenly after 1 week? How long does it take the body to get back to normal? Also, does anyone know if the bleeding stops immediately - my boyfriend is taking me on a trip this weekend and I'd really like to be "normal."

Has anyone had the experience of previously taking Levaquin without side effects, then when taking it again, developed severe headaches, joint aches, muscle pain and weakness, etc? I am currently going through this. I've taken Levaquin before probably 2 or 3 times due to upper respiratory problems and not noticed any side effect but this time, I've taken 5 days worth, 3 in hospital 2 as outpatient dose and can hardly move. I had the same experience in 2004 with zithromax. Had taken it without side effects, then suddenly when taking it again developed such bad chest pain, I thought as did my doctor, that I was having heart attack and spent a week in hospital before figuring that one out.

I have been on NuvaRing since Feb 2008 when they made me come off the depo shot which I loved but had maxed out on the amount of time you are allowed to be on it. I chose the NuvaRing because I am a very forgetful person when it comes to pills and for the first few months it was great! My husband loved it because I went up a cup size which I was also okay with seeing as how they didn't hurt.
But last night enough was enough! For probably the last 6 months or so I had started seeing emotional side effects becoming increasingly moody and irritable...my husband also noticed this but was willing to except that I became a crazy person around the time to take it out and put it in. But since January my sex drive has disappeared completely! I am 23 and haven't had sex with my husband in almost 2 months because I physically have no desire for it. Even when we try I can't get into it.

So that's it...I would rather risk forgetting a pill and getting pregnant ( we may be trying soon anyways) than not be able to have sex at all and hurt my marriage both physically and mentally ( I am a mean person on this thing).

Hello ladies,

I had mine put in 1/4/08 and taken out about two weeks ago. I've experienced almost everything that is explained below. The insertion was easy until I left the docs office. Then extreme pain led me to pull over on the way home, go into Walgreens and crouch down on the floor of there disgusting bathroom until my husband came and picked me up because I could not drive. After that I guess I never noticed over the course of the last year and a half all the things you've described below. I have two children so I was done. I started Mirena right after breast feeding and not getting my period for 7 months anyway. I figured I would just morph into the Mirena no period zone from the breastfeeding no period zone - perfect. Well I did get my period (although much shorter and lighter). It never really went away. That wasn't my major problem. I am not sure about any hair loss but I've been working out like a crazy person and experiencing some weight loss but nothing that I would think. I am wondering now that I have taken it out if I'll lose some weight. Anyway, the biggest side effect I think was the same as one listed below. I always felt like my body was trying to push it out as well. I went to the doctor twice for that. I always had discharge (sorry for the descriptiveness). Also, my husband was stabbed a few times so I went in and they trimmed the strings. Then we thought it was lost (I apparently have a long uterus) so they had to do an ultrasound to find it. Then once my husband told me I didn't smell quite right, I immediately went in and had it removed. After reading all this, I am glad I did. As far as the sex drive goes, I guess we haven't been doing it as much (we used to all the time) even after the first kid. We are still very much attracted to each other and love to mess around so I am hoping that this is removed I will be more receptive to the idea. Lastly, I have just gotten off the phone with my doctor since I have a very heavy period today with large clots. I am concerned and also a bit light headed. I am not a baby when it come to pain so the insensitive girl below has to understand everyone is different and if it's working out for her, she is blessed. I am glad I had it removed. When you have that many attempts and trips to the doctor to find, correct and monitor something, it's probably not working. The best part is, because of me trying and not being successful, my husband agreed to his vasectomy finally. Now all I have to do is wait until I regulate (and I'm hoping someone posts something about that) and he needs to do his thing about 30 times and we should be good to go. I send out happy thoughts to all the brave ladies that have tried this. I am a true believer that we need to listen to our bodies and ever one of us in unique.

AHHHH! I'm so mad right now that I decided to google this stupid bc and here I am =] I'm so sick of being bloated! Grrr I am always soso bloated it's insane! Sometimes I have to lay on my back on the floor to keep from exploding! It's even causing back pain. I have never felt so fat in my life. I have gained like ten pounds in the first month and I work out like a crazy person?? This is horrible! However, I haven't had the decrease in sex drive like everyone is saying? So that's good I guess. Im quitting this stuff! I'm tired of midol malox cocktails and always feeling fat! Oh! And my boobs went up a cup size and they ALWAYS hurt! I really can't deal with fluctuating ten pounds....IN MY BRA!

i had mirena fitted in oct 08 and ever since have not been myself. i've been anxious and depressed, constantly worried and convinced im going to get an illness and die. i was never like this before i was always optimistic and positive, now i'm like a crazy person. i've tried other homone contraception and none suits, this was my last option, my husband has offered to have the snip i've been that bad. i've been having 3 periods a month, back ache and serious period pain, which i have never had before.
my doctor has also told me he is fully supportive if i want it out as he isn't a fan, he also said very few doctors would admit to it causing any of the side effects, but he whole heartedly believes it does. i also have period pain that radiates out to in my hip, very weird! there are lots of ladies the mirena suits but i am definitely not one of them.

Glad I found this site...I have been on the NR for 1 1/2 months, this is my second attempt. First time I had it in after attempting an IUD (Murina), which gave me intense cramping (I have a tilted uterus) and bled for 7 weeks. I thought that the cramping from the NR was due to my body healing from the IUD, so I left it in for a month until I couldn't stand it anymore and took it out.

Now my second attempt at the NR, I have cramping on a daily basis, spotting to the point where I will be walking along and splat in my underwear major discharge (yuck!), heartburn, diarrhea (IBS), headache, unexplainable crying, little weight gain, I go to the gym 3 times a week and do yoga and pilates at home, my body responds really well to workouts and the scale has not budged to any weight loss.

My body is very sensitive to BC and was told by my gyno that NR has a low dosage and will not affect me like YAZ (made me a crazy person), Ortho Tri-Cyclene, Ortho-LO, which gave me migraines for 9 days out of the month.

Thanks to all the women out there (YOU ROCK!) who are posting their experiences, as of today this ring is out of my body!

I have been on quite a few antidepressants, but not celexa. this is day 3 and i am hanging on for dear life. :( i don't feel good at all. i am wondering if anyone knows if it will get better. i am 22 yrs young and am so worried i will feel like this forever.. i have stomach pains, headaches, dizzy. and ocd... i don't even know if i have ocd but i feel like i do.. im worrying about the dumbest things (like stepping on my cat and breaking her tail...?) i promise i am not a crazy person.. but why do i feel like i am?

so, I was prescribed Avelox a week ago to clear up an infection caused by a ruptured ovarian cyst. I went on-line tonight because each night since I've started the medicine, I sleep less. I have turned into a total insomniac. I remembered the name AVELOX when my doctor prescribed it but I couldn't remember if I had any issues with it when I took it last, or when I even took it last. After reading your posts...it came back to me. About a year and half ago, I was prescribed Avelox for a kidney infection. Within a couple of days after taking the medicine, my right arm became completely inmobile and it was painful to even try to move it. I also had terrible abdominal pain. I went to the ER, only to have them ask me if my "home life was OK" or was I "depressed". They checked for the kidney infection but found no trace of one. I left the ER with no diagnosis...except they thought I was crazy. Gradually, after a week on Avelox, my arm pain went away but the abdominal and lower back pain became so bad that my doctor admitted me into the hospital. He feared the kidney infection (which the ER couldn't find) had gotten very bad. I was there for 3 days and they couldn't find anything wrong with me.They again couldn't even find any trace of a kidney infection. I was not eating, not sleeping, feeling constantly sick to my stomach and dizzy...and the abdominal and lower back pain was incredible. The doctors again were talking to me like I was a crazy person. They couldn't find one thing wrong besides a little dehydration.
I stopped the Avelox while in the hospital after no kidney infection was found. After a few days off the medicine I gradually felt better. Two days after leaving the hospital my doctor called and said that one of the tests they did said I could have possibly been exposed to Mono, so they chalked the who experience to being a possible case of Mono. That never made sense to me...but after reading your experiences, I'm sure it was the medicine. Now after remembering that I had taken this medicine before, I also remember sitting in the hospital drinking coffee! The prescription on the bottle I got last week reads "avoid caffeine". I know I drank coffee when I was on it before and I don't recall any warning about caffeine with Avelox last time. That said, I tried drinking a little coffee the 2nd day I was on it this time (I need my coffee, even though it said no caffeine). I was sooo jumpy, hands shaking, heart racing and lightheaded - like you feel if you drink many cups of coffee with no food - but I had only had a couple of sips. I haven't had any coffee for the rest of the days I had been on the medicine and I haven't felt that way again. I have also been drinking tons of water because the Avelox is making me so damn thirsty. My hands, lips and even my eyes are dry. The issue I am having with Avelox this round is flushes. One minute I'm fine, the next I'm flushed and my face is hot like I was running a marathon, but I was sitting still. Maybe with no caffeine and tons of water, you might feel better while you are waiting for this Avelox poison to get out of your system. Hope that helps. I'm going back to not sleeping...(It's 1:30 am ~aaarrrggghhh)

I went from a rational non-emotional women to a crazy person!!! I feel awful. I would rather have pain than feel this way. I can't sleep though constantly fatigued. Achy body, headaches. Everything tastes like cardboard so I'm not eating well though I have gained a few pounds. I am severely emotional. I almost left my husband this weekend whom I adore, can't stop crying, very depressed and irritable. I want nothing more than to be alone and sleep, which no one can live that way. I am a mother of 3, a wife, and have a full time job. I can't function properly. I will never undergo hormone treatment after I get through this! I am currently on Lupron, just had laporoscopy 2 weeks ago for the 5th time all for endometriosis and I'm only 25. I started Premarin today to assist this anxiety and mood swings. Wish my family and I luck.

I started birth control a couple months before I got married. I was on alesse and it made me rapidly gain weight. I went to the gyn and she ranted and raved about NuvaRing. I was excited to get off alesse and that I didn't have to remember to take a pill everyday.
The first month was great. I didn't feel the ring and some weight was starting to come off from the previous bc. I have been on it a total of three months and will no longer continue. I cry at the drop of a dime; I am bloated in my midsection as well as even more weight gain; I have zero sex-drive; When my husband and I do have sex, I am crying because it hurts so bad; I have terrible mood-swings; acne; bad cramps (I never have had cramps before); and not to mention, horrible headaches and even my first migrane!
I thought I was becoming a crazy person and have felt like my husband deserves better than me. Come to find out, that person he married is in there still, but hiding under drugs.
What other birth control has anyone gone on that works since the NuvaRing??

I have been on Aviane for about 6 months now, and hating it! I took Alesse for four years with not one problem. Same case as everyone else, I got switched to Aviane as it was "the same" and cheaper. I thought I was turning into a crazy person the last few months! I am very easily irritated, and snap at stupid things(never the case for me) I have TOTALLY lost my sex drive and have gained weight. My poor boyfriend has had no idea what to do with me and my irrational behavior and lack of desire. I am seeing my Dr. next week and asking to be put specifically back onto Alesse. Aviane is NOT the same as Alesse as is obvious by all these comments! Stick with what you know and don't let them switch you to generic versions of birth control!

If you are reading this, BEWARE THE NUVARING! I am very lucky to have a patient, understanding fiance or my engagement would probably be off. This thing turned me into a crazy person. I accused him of everything. I was suspicious of everyone. I cried for no reason, and got angry at stupid little things. It made me into someone I'm not. I stopped it after one month of use because I simply couldn't take the emotional roller coaster any more. I don't know if these side effects get better and I don't care. BEWARE THE NUVARING!

I was prescribed Brazvia (sp) and wasn't too satisfied with it, and was then prescribed Yaz.I'm 20 years old and I'm only on my second week and I can feel the effects. I have ZERO energy. I am always tired and moody and my sex-drive is non-existent. I feel myself craving food more often than I should. My hormones are through the roof. I cry over everything and anything, and I have no temper. I have basically turned into a crazy person since beginning the pills. I will continue for another month just to finish the two packs I have, and if nothing changed I'm returning to Brazvia which is bliss compared to Yaz.n

I have posted my symptoms for about a week, I am HAPPY to say that I have only been off of YAZ 12 days and have already experienced some improvements. Im am sleeping again, and eating normally, the emotions have calmed down a little, I am still experiencing the cloudiness in the head, and a lil anxiety, and my stomach is still messed up occasionally. however I am able to get through the day without feeling like I am a completely Crazy person. I was only on it for a month, and I have never felt this way in my life, I heard that it will take about two months to completely leave your system, so everyone experiencing the effects of this EVIL drug, hang in there it will get better with time, you all are in my prayers. God Bless

I was prescribed this Levaquin antibiotic for 7 days duration. Day one I started feeling nausea, fagtige, my brain just thinking weird stuff. I thought it was my sickness. Day two my condition was took a deeper turn: I couldn't sleep, I was so hot (inside my body) took off my cloth ran around the house like a crazy person, even thought it was cold in the winter. I started thinking of suicidal, depression. my heart beat was pumping so fast, I tried to calm my self down by listen classical music, that didn't help either....I went to emergency room, doctor prescribed me a different antibiotic...that medication still affect me today...I still keep the bottle to remind myself of that medication...long story short..

My wife has sinus infection. Her doctor prescribed Levaquin. She took one last night (08/12/08), she couldn't sleep, headache, nausea...etc. I warned her many times before about this medication, but I didn't realized she taken the medication or bought this medication...

THIS IS A SERIOUS. LEVAQUIN IS A BAD MEDICATION. STOP USING THIS LEVAQUIN NOW. we need to organize a group for FDA to prohibit this medication for good. Even class action sUit to stop the company from manufacturing this medication. If anyone knows how and where to go about these, please let me know. This is for real, our health is more important. Thank you !!
