Wondering if any of the other women are experiencing leaking, clear fluid into their panties every morning. I have had my Mirena in for almost a year since the birth of my twins and every morning since I had it inserted when I first wake up and usually after I stand up a get a gush. I spoke to my doctor and he said it was because I didn't have enough estrogen to he put me on a patch for that. I feel like a true chemistry set these days. I am tired, feeling depressed, a TON of my hair has fallen out all round my face and my face broke out horribly. I am considering having it taken out but don't know if I should blame all these side effects totally on the mirena or if some of it not the hair portion is due to being a first time mom to twins.

Please let me know if anyone else is suffering from the morning gush. The best way to describe it is like the clear fluid that weeps from a wound.

My 5 years old son has been on Singulair for 9 months. His allergy symptoms have completely gone away. He’s no longer has his night time cough, bloody nose, and frequent croup due to allergies.
My life has been a living HELL from the moment I started this medicine. Before he was on this medicine he was always a pleasant, smart, well-behaved child. Right after he started singulair he began having temper tantrums, becoming increasingly argumentative, not listening. He gets mood swings like you would not believe cry and/or yell at us over the silliest things, kicking, screaming, nightmares, and became very physically aggressive. We were unable to take him places because we never knew how he would behave in public .He was extremely unhappy little 5 year old boy. He also complained of upset stomach and fatigue. Even his school complained about his behavior and they said that he might have PDD. After consulting with doctors we got the assurance that he does not have PDD, but we end up changing his school anyway.
Being a first time mom I never thought it was the medication, I thought it was just a normal behavior. I thought as a parent I must be doing something wrong! I couldn't believe that other parents have gone through the same nightmare.
Two weeks ago the doctor handed me a report about singulair and its suicidal side effect and ask me to stop using this medicine for a while. Since then I started to notice a dramatic change in our son's behavior. He woke up singing, laughing. He wants to help with chores. He is doing great with his school lessons, and very patient with everyone. He is now a more stable and friendly 5 years old.
Wow, I have a completely different child, and thank God I took him off singulair.
As parents, please let’s do something to stop poisoning our children.

My eight month old daughter is hypothyroid and has been taking synthroid since she was about 4 weeks old. Within days of taking this, her sleeping pattern changed dramatically. All the doctors are telling me welcome to parenthood. But, each time they inscrease her dosage, she gets worse as far as sleeping goes. Day, night, it doesn't matter, she will not sleep more than about an hour or two at a time. Am I crazy, or shouldn't she be sleeping a little better than that? I am not a first time mom, I know all babies don't sleep well. But, I feel that this cannot be good for her, how does she go like this? I know my husband and I are struggling on only 2 or 3 hours of sleep a night. I am almost to the point of desperation for help.

I cannot believe that it took me so long to figure out. My 3 yo daughter has been on singulair for the last 6 months and the behavior changes have been terrible. She never wants to goto sleep, wakes up in the middle of the night, fights me for everything, throwing temper tantrums, demanding, screaming, wide awake at the crack of dawn. I took her off singulair last week and now all of a sudden she goes right to bed and I find myself waking her up in the morning. I am amazed at the behavioral changes. Being a first time mom I never thought it was the meds, I thought it was just normal behavior. I only noticed it after I took her off of them. I thought wow, I have a completely different child, and thank God I took her off it. I will never put her back on it and I suggust that you reconsider giving your child Singulair.
