I am blessed symptoms and conditions

I have been on my "period" for 12 weeks now, and about a month ago my gyn. prescribed Yasmin for me. I have now been taking Yasmin for exactly 3 weeks, and I have been amazed by what I have read in this site! I met my live-in b.f. 2 1/2 years ago, and used to be such a fun, energetic, hopefull, and loving person. I took Yasmin for a couple of months in 2005, and looking back,...after stopping the pill because of extreme mood swings, that is also when my panic disorder came about. I never have been able to understand why a person like me, who once had so much to offer had become a walking basket case having very frequent, debilitating panic attacks. I am blessed to have such a concerned, and compassionate b.f. and he has told me that he has seen an extreme diference in me. Like I said above, my gyn. put me back on Yasmin 3 weeks ago to stop my bleeding and regulate my periods, and it never dawned on me that Yasmin is what started my chaos until now. And my bleeding has not stopped! I don't know what to do. It seems clear to me that my problems are stemming from this pill, but others have said on this site that the side effects continue well after the pill is stopped. What to do? Needless to say, I will be making an appt with my dr.

I've been on Seroquel for a month now. My dosage was progressively increased from 100mg to 400mg for severe chronic insomnia, a symptom of manic depression.

Within one month, I've gained 20 pounds and I look as if I'm six or seven months pregnant.

I am weaning myself off of it, because my doctor doesn't seem to care much about the weight gain, despite the fact that I eat less than 1000 calories a day.

A symptom of bipolar disorder is also depression, and the more I look at myself in the mirror, the more depressed I get.

I'd rather go without sleep than gain weight at the rate I've been gaining it. It's just not safe, and I can feel it taking its toll on me physically and psychologically.

It's just not worth it in my opinion. I'm giving Melatonin a try. Hopefully, that will work for me. It was suggested by one of my nurses.

It's not easy to go from a 4/5 to nearly a size 9 in a month. It really makes you feel terrible, especially when you exercise an hour and a half everyday and are on a low calorie diet.

Until I'm given something that can counteract the weight gain, I refuse to stay on Seroquel.

I admit I'm having some bouts of insomnia, but they're not nearly as bad as they were before I started the Seroquel. Perhaps that will change once the Seroquel is all out of my system.

I also notice I'm itching everywhere, from head to toe. I suppose that's a symptom of weaning yourself off of the drug.

Also, I want to add that I have also had fever of 104.5 degrees and more (when I got to emergency after vomiting blood it was 102 degrees and I felt a little better) I thought I was going to die. At my age 19years old, It was too soon for me to go- and for what! Internal bleeding due to Kenalog shot that I would never have done had someone told me of side effects!

I am blessed that I have a baby, but can I have another? Can someone tell me about the reroductive damage from Kenalog? Is this going to go away..... My periods never end...The label says that some of the side effects may be PERMANENT!

Today is a good day for me, I've having some of the symptoms of the above users of Yasmin. I've been on Yasmin for 5 years and a year ago I've noticed some changes and experiences in my body the main is consistency of Yeast infection which sometimes lead to unrinary tract infection. I never knew what was happening to me as I've not been active for months now. A week ago I started weeding out the possibilities of the cause of this and I came up with my birth control Yasmin.

I began searching the Internet on for the side effects of Yasmin and stumbled upon this site. I have three more pills to go in this package and then that is it for now! I will no longer take this pill. I do not care about the side effects of not taking it! So help me God they will go away even if it takes years to correct it! It took years to get to this point therefore i will be patient with my body to get back to normal.

As with many of you I took birth control to control my flow of period as well as cramps. I know woman's body is different where some can tolerate this and some cannot but I am willing to give it a try. What really bothers me about this is the fact that the symptoms just creep up on you without you even knowing and if you don't take time out to research your emotions and search through your soul and body slowly you will never get it that a simple BCP could mess you up like that. Today I am thankful for keeping that thought of research my birth control pills since last night and keeping it.

I am blessed to hear the testimonies and to know that I am not delusional. I stumbled upon this site for a reason.
Today my healing begins..
