I have been on this for 1 month. The first two weeks was fine then I started feeling bloated big time. I do exercises for my stomach and I know I have good core muscles and I can't hold my stomach in. I'm not working right now need to be looking for work but I have been waiting for the bleeding to stop and the bloating to disappear. I am getting off of this. All of the head problems people are having are due to the extra drug in Yaz that deals with moodiness. I have been on tons of different anti- everything and usually it takes at least 3 to 4 weeks to adjust to your brain. If not it's not for you. I am completely off of meds now because I took the steps to freedom in Christ in a book called Breaking the Bondage by Neil T Anderson. I took ortho tri-cyclene before years ago and it did great compared to this stuff. Taking something to help with moodiness just causes a person to be numb to their feelings. The feelings don't go anywhere the pile up and that's why you find yourself at times crying uncontrollably. The only way to heal these things is to face them and the only one that can take that pain from you is Jesus. I know I tried everything. Exercise and changes in your eating habits will help with period problems. Water water water will help with acne.

I have been on topamax since Nov. 06. My psychiatrist started me on 25 mg and moved me up to 100 mg. He put me on this medication because I asked him about undergoing a gastric bypass for weight loss and wanted me to try medication first. My symptoms are tingling fingertips and feet. I have also had a chronic cough (sometimes so violent I vomit) from a cold that I have been unable to get rid of. I read on a web site that Topamax can cause a chronic cough. Also, carbonated beverages taste flat to me now. I have lost about 20 pounds but I don't think the sides effects I am having are worth the weight loss.

I was prescribed Mobic for shoulder pain in April 2005. I am a gastric bypass recipient and therefore should not have been prescribed anything in the NSAID's department. As a result, the Mobic adhered to the inside wall of my stomach pouch, created several ulcers, and caused severe stomach bleeding causing me three hospital stays and having to receive 4 units of blood. I think all physicians as well as the gastric bypass patients themselves should be aware of the damage NSAID's can do to their stomach pouches.

Been on Lisiniprol for just about a week now, haven't noticed any side effect except for the awful loss of sex drive. I'm quite young, and only developed hypertension recently while awaiting the gastric-bypass orientation (10 months and counting). Incredibly disappointing and frustrating for both my partner and I. Will make a call to the doc on Monday. Ugh!
