Heart flutter symptoms and conditions

I posted my experiences on June 5, 2009. I thought I would do an update. Yes, I am overjoyed that I had Mirena removed. It took 3-6 months for the side effects from the drug to disappear after removal. In the first 1-3 months following removal I haven't experienced another rash, itchy skin, hair loss, anxiety, heart flutter, bloating, cramping, breast tenderness,or eye twitch. It took about 3-6 months for the mild to cystic acne and low back pain to finally vanish. I still have problems with tendinitis in my wrist. The depression and feeling of laziness is also a side effect of the medication that can disappear if the device is removed. I paid for all the expenses out out pocket with no insurance, but I'm glad I didn't wait to have the Mirena removed because of the expense.

I had Mirena inserted 3 weeks ago. Since then, I have a strange fluttering in the center of my chest and mild pain when I breathe. I also feel nervous at times when I'm resting. I am considering getting Mirena removed.

well i've been reading all the replies on FemconFE and to be honest i have a lot of these symptoms that i have never experienced before. well it started a weeks ago that i started noticing bad symptoms. i've been on femcon for a month and a week and i have mood swings,insomnia,hot flashes,dizziness, nausea, severe stomach pain, and worst of all...heart flutters. when i was born i was diagnosed with a heart murmur...well at 8 years old it was lessened to a heart flutter. i haven't had problems with my heart since i was 16. no even the birth of my daughter affected me. but since being on this i can't even drive, clean my house, let alone take care of my 14 weeks old daughter. i'm calling the doctor in a few hours when they open and hopefully he'll take me off of this

I needed Metoprolol Tartrate for a very high heart rate for graves desease, I was in the 115's+ lowered too 8o beats per min. Which is great!
BUT, having some horrid side effects.
BAD night chills, intolerance to cold. Shake for 3+ hours then sweat. Feels like I was hit by a train after then I get very nauseasous and light headed
Sleep is bad, toss and turn all night and have a greater fear of the dark
ALSO, my bones hurt all the time!! Never did before, had tests done nothing there.
This is the only drug I could find that didn't make my heart flutter and feel all funky. Its a great drug for just that. All the side effects suck..bad

i just started my 7 month pack and ever since last month, while on the active pills, my heart seems to flutter or feels like its skipping beats. it does it alot and it scares me because i am scared i am going to have a heart attack or something. do you think its from femcon and if so, should i stop taking them?

pain in calf muscle, pain in ankle; legs; and thighs, scary heart flutter, poor circulation in fingers.

Wow. I'm glad i found this site. Last night i had a sudden brain wave that my complete lack of interest in sex might just be down to the pill, and it looks like i might just be right. I used to be quite highly sexed when i first met my boyfriend, but 3 years later and i finally have no libido whatsoever, i really dont see the point anymore. This is sad for both me remembering who i used to be and my relationship, especially as i only moved in 3 months ago!
Next week i'm having surgery to see if i have endometriosis as the (minimal amount of) sex i am having is quite painful (sometimes like a stabbing pain, sometimes like a real bad ache), although it seems this could be a side effect too? I wouldn't be suprised if the doctors come back stumped as to what the problem is, but either way i think i need to give Yasmin up. In fact i'm not keen on putting any more chemicals in my body any more, but now what do i do about birth control!?
I dont know about the other side effects - i certainly am tired a lot, dont sleep very well, have the odd heart 'flutter', and now you come to mention it my legs do ache sometimes....but i think i'm lucky to have got away without depression or raging tempers (which is actually why i was put on yasmin in the first place).
Fingers crossed i may have just discovered after the last 2 1/2 years what the problem is, thanks to you guys!

As a nurse I was sure that this was the best medication for my upper resp. infection. I thought I was having anxiety attacks and was constantly checking my irregular pulse. I read the side effects and then these postings and have stopped after the first 3 doses. At least I'm not crazy and not having a heart attack. Although I can still feel my heart flutter in my chest. No more of this medication for me.

I'm 40, been on 10 mg Lisinopril per day for about 7 years.
Thought I was just aging early, until I read these posts.
Will discuss with doc in January when I go.
My blood pressure is under control--feel better in that regard, and I've never had the cough. But I am much slower than I used to be, I have joint pain, stuffy sinuses, tight chest, bouts of difficult breathing (I run 3 miles every other day to combat this), no energy-really have to push myself, difficulty concentrating, memory lapse, anxiety, withdrawing, heart flutter. Been concerned. I wonder what life would be like without this--I've just been trying to accept things the way they are, but maybe I could find an alternate drug-at least for a while to see if symptoms clear. I've been taking it so long, maybe I have forgotten how I should feel. I'm checking on this--thanks, everyone, very much!
