I have had the Mirena IUD for about 9 1/2 months and its been hell. After reading this I know I'm not crazy. About a month ago I woke up and I was so dizzy I could barely stand up. I couldn't figure out why until reading some of the post. I have been so frusterated all the time. I periodically have cramps, sharp pains in my abdomin. I also hve had a huge problem with mood swings and loss of energy. The other things that have been really weird I've had more facial hair and the deodarant I used for years stopped working. I also had bleeding to spotting for the first 7 months. Thankyou all for your postings you've really helped me to listen to what my body has been trying to tell me I'm going to have it removed on Sept 15th. Oh 25lbs gained since having it. Sorry for the bad spelling and grammer.

I hve only taken it for 2 days and I have insomnia and shakiness. It's not bad enough for me to stop the medication. I was prescribed this medicatin for Tietze's disease, sinus infection and bronchitis. blood testes revealed it's a bacterial infection.

I hve been taking Guaifen since Friday. By Sunday, I have experienced severe nausea, sleeplessness, headaches, hot flashes, dizziness, stomach pain, complete loss of appetite, shaking and increased heartbeat. If the side effects of the cure are worse than the sinus infection, why put this on the market?!

I want to say first that I have been taking 50 mg. of Zolft now for about 5 years. I take it at bedtime. I hve only forgotten to take it once or twice in five years. The times I did forget however, I would have very strange images in the black space when I close my eyes. If I could get up and take it before going to sleep, in about 20-25 minutes the images would stop and I would fall peacefully to sleep. The nights that I did not take it at all I would have very strange and disturbing dreams. Even with these minor side effects, Zoloft is still one of the best things that has ever happened to me. It has made such a change in my life that I can't say enough good about it.

I have been taking it for a couple weeks now due to my allergies to pets.
I woke up with a bad headache and now it is 2:00 am the next day. Still hve a bit of a headache. Feel a little nausea. Feel out of it.
I never have headaches lasting all day . I also experience dry mouth in the middle of the night so bad that I have to wake up and drink a glass of water.

it has been quit a ride with this drug, the mood swings are qite a trip for my kids but they are adjusting and always willing to help no matter what. The stomach cramps are a bit much at times feel like i may have an accident out side, like i can't hold it. The confusion and not able to get my words out right is also fustrating at times. I hve lots of energy, like i am on some kind of uppers almost feel like i jhve to let my doctor write a letter to my job explain my new found energy level. My tingling also began the very same day it freaked me out, but i am dealing with it my migranes are now two in about three weeks as opposed to four to five in one week, for me that is great!

I hve been on Januvia for 5 weeks, after not being able to tolerate Metformin. I have noticed a great thinning of my hair. Other than that I haven't felt better. Is hair loss a side effect?
