Dishes symptoms and conditions

Although I have asthma, I was in my physician's office for another purpose when the doctor noticed my cough. After listening to my breathing, she offered me samples of Advair Discus 100/50. "This will take care of that cough," she said.

Sure enough, the cough I'd had for 2 weeks disappeared completely after only the second dose. I thought I'd hit the medicinal jackpot!

Then came Advair day 3. I noticed that my heart rate was elevated constantly, even when I was lying down, and my blood pressure was higher than normal. I figured I was coming down with a cold.

On day 4, I awoke to the experience of having all of the muscles in my body feeling stiff 24/7. This is no exaggeration. And of all things, my lats (the muscles running down your sides starting at the armpit) were completely tensed at all times. It was one of the most unnatural and uncomfortable feelings I've ever had.

By day 5, my entire body was completely rigid. I had to chew gum all day just to release excess tension. I was growing more and more agitated by the minute. I wanted to take care of things that needed to be done (dishes, laundry, etc.) but found myself only able to read or watch TV.

On day 6, the fear began to set in. I was terribly anxious about something, but I had no idea what. Since my brain couldn't figure out why my body was literally in flight-or-flight mode 24 hours a day, it began parceling out all the angst to all of the small aspects of my life. I became unable to do anything because I was afraid of everything.

On day 7, my cough returned, and my mind went crazy. Fearing the worst, I told my husband that I was going completely out of my mind, but I had no idea why. We are 35, and have known each other since we were 14, and I have never seen such a look on his face. I told him we were going to have to get some kind of mental help immediately because I was ceasing to function at all.

On day 8, I'm still coughing, and still going out of my mind. I have to get on the computer to look up psychologists on my insurance company's website. I start the search, but then, a thought occurs to me. I opened a new tab and googled Advair and Anxiety. And there was the answer. I called my husband at work, and told him I was going off the Advair and why. He seemed skeptical, but thought I should definitely give the Advair a trial discontinuation.

Day 9, I wake up 24 hours after my last dose, and my cough is gone. I feel more relaxed than I have in days. Perhaps I am not going crazy after all.

It took about 4 days to go completely back to normal. According to my physician, the reaction I had was to the Salmeterol. I therefore should avoid any products containing any long acting beta-adrenoceptor agonist: Formoterol, Bambuterol, and sustained-release oral Salbutamol. I'm just glad I didn't end up institutionalized.

Oh boy. So it started with this sentence in my obgyn's office "is there anything to help the EXTREME cramps i get every month?" to which he replied "oh yes there is the mirena" and it went on to ask him what it does. oh it sounded so wonderful! but....FAIL! my daughter is nine months old now so i guess i have had it for 8 months now. got it in right after my check up. I have lets see....i wrote these all down. Sex Drive..GONE. increased weight gain which is that i weigh more now then when i was pregnant and have changed everything and i keep GAINING more weight..cramps regularly there not bad but they are everyday. no energy i cant even do the dishes without getting tired. heartburn everyday, if my stomachs empty i have heartburn so it doesn't help me trying to lose weight! I have become more moody and when i say more i mean i have clinical bipolar disorder and it is HORRIBLE with my anger and depression and my always crying. I get pain in my joints and mostly my right leg goes numb (idk if thats mirena but it didn't happen till AFTER mirena happened). I have always had AMAZING skin...now i get acne all the time its unbelievable. i get dizzy and sometimes i cant even hold my daughter! and the migraines are the worst of all...no the worst is the no sex drive! All this and i was never told the cons in my doctors office! Isn't that against some code? Here is the topper on the cake. two weeks after i had mirena inserted my obgyn was asked to leave the practice and they refused to tell me why. Shady thats what that is.

Although I suffer from Bi-polar, BPD and PTSD my doctor prescribed me Duromine to lose the weight I had gained from using seroquel. My prescribed dose is 600mg. The duromine sent me absolutely nuts and being a recovering addict and alcoholic i used more than the dose prescribed. Then I found I could not sleep and am now (after stopping taking the duromine) trying to cut the seroquel down as I got up to taking 1500mg a night. I'm now on 900mg and strange things happen in the night. I live alone with two dogs....my babies... and although i cant recall it things happen. the dishes are done or the weirdest one my dogs wear fleeces and coats in winter. I woke to find India (one of my dogs) with her coat and fleece off and folded neatly on the shelf. I don't recall doing this. Just a warning for thoes suffering from dry mouth and constant thirst, i ended up drinking so much water that i was flushing the sodium out of my body. your sodium levels should be between 136-145. my levels were 117. Had they dropped to 113 I would have had irreversible brain damage. I was in hospital twice because of this. I now take ten salt pills throughout the day to make sure my sodium levels are ok...........VERY SCARY

I was prescribed LEVAQUIN 500mg/day for 30 days. In that duration this is the list of side effects: diarrhea, sleep disorders, insomnia or excessive, and I mean excessive fatique, washing the dishes made me want to nap. heart racing, trouble breathing, tingling sensation either on my left or right side of my body, headaches. I actually finished the script, and now I have a yet undiagnosed skin condition which looks similar to MRSA, but the culture came back negative. The skin sores are very painful, so my doctor put me on DOXYCYCLINE 400mg/day for 2 mos, it didnt help the skin condition and only worsened the effects of LEVAQUIN, now my doctor has me on BACTRIM, because he is convinced it is MRSA. I am also suffering from severe depression, i never contemplate suicide, yet i would drift in and out of daydreams of wanting to quit, dizziness, when I was on LEVAQUIN my equilibrium was completely off. This skin condition is very painful, and I am on my 3rd antibiotic since June. I think I need help too!

I am taking Septra for a sinus infection. I am consistently, ridiculously nauseous all day and all night since within two hours of my very first dose. Taking this medicine with lots of or little bits of food, milk, bread, soup, peppermint tea, ginger, etc. doesn't make a difference.
Food smells make me wretch. I can't even wash the dishes because of the leftovers. Even simple mention of some foods makes me gag.
I also am sick when the road curves too much ahead of me, I see spinning things, and moving my eyes too quickly.
I have never been this nauseous in my life. I find it disturbing.
Vomiting does not relieve the sensations. My vomit tastes very bitter.
I suspect the accompanying headache is from dehydration caused by the low food intake and diarrhea.

I started on Singulair about 7 months ago and I tell you I've been sick all winter with asthma. I've had respiratory infections, bronchitis, etc. I don't smoke at all nor am I around smokers. I've found myself depressed and having suicidal thoughts. My mood swings have been off the charts. I get mad about the most insignificant events and sometimes I even get violent. I've broken dishes and even kicked the garbage can into pieces. I am by no means ever violent but after reading everyone's testimony about Singulair, can my symptoms be a result of taking this drug for 6 months now. If so, Merck needs to be held responsible. I lost out on a 5 year relationship because of my behavior.

WOW! I guess I will consider myself one of the lucky ones after reading all of these side effects posted here. Let me first say that I have tried many inhalers -- serevent, flovent, ventolin etc etc -- and the asthma kept getting worse. Then my doctor suggested Advair. I've been taking it for several years now. I knew that all medications have side effects and I read through the list carefully. The medicine was a Godsend! It helped me so much that I would have recommended it to most anyone. Recently, however, I've started having the occasional heart palpitations and recurring sinus infections. I'm beginning to wonder if it is time to move on to another drug. I'm in my early 30s and have been trying to conceive for a few years to no avail. I recently read that Advair can cause irregular cycles and now wonder if it is playing a part in my fertility struggles. Only other symptoms I have are tooth sensitivity and occasional leg cramps -- however, these existed prior to starting Advair; they might have become more prevalent but I don't believe Advair caused them.
I'd like to hear from anyone who is currently trying Asmanex...that might be my next drug.

update on Geodon-
Last week I wrote a raving review on Geodon, this week, not so good... I have lost a total of 11 lbs. in 9 days which should make me feel great, right? Nope! Because I went straight from feel good to full fledged mania (spent $300+ worth of nothing on eBay) to wading in mud depression and borderline psychotic. My husband wants me to "call the doctor and get back on the Seroquel!" I'm still trying to stick it out. The nausea is coming and going vs. staying that way all day but I'm still running (feels like crawling) back and forth to the bathroom. So- the ultimate question- to be fat and lazy, 'out of it' and with no life (including sex life) on Seroquel? or be skinny, sick and totally bipolar on Geodon? Yesterday at work, (I am a personal care assistant) I watched myself pour pepper in the pot of boiling water when I wanted salt, attempted to dry dishes with a wet dish rag, on the way home I was repeatedly forcing the windshield wipers to off trying to get them to turn on in a freezing rain storm... My words are jumbled, confused, can't make sense, crying and Belligerent, pistons aren't firing right... we'll see what happens...

I am taking extra strength Sinutab tablets, 1 or 2 per day. The side effect, if caused by this medication seems to make me so tired. I wash the dishes, am played out. Make up my bed, am played out. Go downstairs and back up, am played out. My breathing seems to be natural. I walk for 30 minutes or more some days and I am no more tired at the end of the walk than I was after washing the dishes. Is it the Sinus tablets or is there something else
that is my problem?

Developed sleep walking, eating, talking, running machinery and watching TV while I was supposedly asleep. This was witnessed by my niece who was very scared. It lasted for about an hour. This is not the first time but this is the first time someone witnessed it. I had suspected all along because I saw used dishes and empty containers in the kitchen in the morning. Have been off it for 3 days now and thank God. Never will I take it again although it seemed to work well for 2 years. I have gained so much weight from the night eating. That guy on the news who says he drove his car after taking Ambien, I now believe him!

My boyfriend has recently started using Triamcinolone Acetonide USP, 0.1% (Topical Cream) for a little rash around his nose and mouth. It is really strange because every time he applies this stuff he turns into a different person!! Yesterday he put a little on and then just started being horribally mean! I have NEVER seen him act like this! He was in my face screaming at me. I understand that sometimes I may get on his nerves but last night I had cooked him dinner, watched some of an old movie, I did the dishes, and he just came up to me out of NOWHERE and started acting like a young teen going through puberty! He was making no sence. Just screaming, throwing a fit! I think it is from this steroid cream... and all the other stuff I have read... Bad stuff...

I had been on Yasmin 28's for about a year and a half. At first everything was great some of my bloating relented and I thought it was the best contraceptive pill on the market, until the mood changes started.

Within a few months I started to experience intense depression. I personally didn't notice it at first until my boyfriend started commenting on how depressed I was. He would ask me what's wrong, and i had no answer. I would be doing such a simple thing like washing the dishes and then the tears would just start to fall. I don't know why I was upset I just was. I have stopped taking Yasmin for about a month now and am starting to feel more like me.

I have also experienced some weight gain. I don't know if the pill is to blame or the depression but either way it was a side effect that I have experienced.

I started taking Diovan after trouble with Lisinop (bad cough!) and Hydrochlorozide (didn't work). At first I took one tab a day, but after a month, my BP was not low enough to keep my Dr. happy, so dosage was increased to two a day. I became so exhausted I could not get up off of the couch. I would lay there and try and will myself to get up and do the dishes or something simple. I just didn't feel like myself. Then I found myself lying in bed at night thinking about how I didn't want to go on this way and what would be the easiest way to do away with myself! Now this just isn't me! I immediately quit taking the Diovan and insisted to my Dr. that I will never take it again. Within two weeks I was feeling more normal. Now I am on Toprol, better energy level, but my feet are really sore...guess I will have to wait and see.
