Lathargic symptoms and conditions

I really don't think anyone too young should take this product. I have only taken it for about 3 days (I know I probably sound like a hypocondriact because I haven't waited long enough to see if the side effects subside) but even in the first couple of days I felt really weird. I felt like I was sick with mono or something. I felt really tired for the first half of the day and then at night I was awake. My change in mood has made me feel a little out of it. Also my acne got much worse just in 2 days. Instead of it just being a bad it was like every new pimple was beneath the surface of my skin. I also take doxocyclin with yasmin but it doesn't seem to do much. I also feel really lathargic and odd. Very tired and my head just seems to be floting.

I know I have only been on this for 3 days but, I have work to do and I can't let this pill bring me down in that. I have to be alert and know whats going on in order for me to do my job. I don't want to be someone who still has side effects long after just starting to take this pill.

I can't say much else but I that I don't want to risk my sanity for this. I really don't think I need it now. I am only 15 and I just want other young people to be aware of the side effects. Although I was not perscribed Yasmin for pregnancy reasons, just know that taking this so early may cause problems. Anyway, good luck to all and I hope whatever BC you choose it is right for you and your body!

THIS STUFF IS DANGEROUS!!!!!

Started taking lisonipril about 3 months ago...first month was like everyone on here has said...dizzy, palpations, chest pains, excessive tiredness....but doctor told me it was helping my blood pressure so hang in there.

In the last 2 weeks I have had severe swelling of the eyes, back of the head...diagnosis....angioedema caused by the lisinopril (ACE inhibitor). My stomach feels absolutely horrible..I feel like vommiting most days. I not someone that has been to the doctor more than 5 times in my life ...now 37, I have been about 8 times since lisinopril.

STAY AWAY!!!!

NO MORE LISONOPRIL FOR ME!!!!

I got married in May and started taking Yasmin just before and it has been HELL ever since! It has cost my husband and I money and quite a bit of unnecessary turmoil!

Currently, I'm still on Yasmin and after reading all this am I definitely getting off of it! Everything that I have read is TOO faniliar! My agony includes:

-Insomnia (I was up until 3am last night)
-lathargic all day (very unmotivated and sleepy)
-a VERY low sex drive (my husband just LOVES this one)
-high irritability & mood swings
-frequent dizziness & light headedness
-had my 1st migraine ever (thank GOD I've only had 1)
-mild depression-want to cry all the time (& do) for no reason
-breasts are hard with knots (he loves that too)
-i pee all the time
-back pain in the morning (After sleeping in our guest room for a month, we have actually started shopping around for a new mattress-didn't even cross my mind that it may be the pill)

I'm on my 7th pack and can't wait to get to my doc to switch to something better. Anyway, my question is...for all of you who have already switched...what did you switgh to? Are your side effects less? (Off the pill, my periods are normal, short, and for the most part cramp free (Don't hate me!) My husband and I just want to enjoy being married a little longer before having any little ones!) Any suggestions?

I have also suffered severe side effects from Kenalog injections. I had a series of 12-14 injections because of a gynogological ailment. I also asked the doctor. if there were any side effects, she said," no". I was getting the minimal amount of dosage ( 40 MG ). My cheeks started to swell puffy and redness, I was gaining weight and could not concentrate. When I asked her about these problems , she said, " it was not from the injections." I then got a second opinion, and was told to stop the injections immediately ( blood test were done) This doctor also works for the same hospital. The 2nd opinion doctor called my doctor before giving me the results; to warn my doctor. Who then called me and also told me to get more blood test done. Well because of these injections now I suffer from Endocrinogical problems and may possibly have Endo Carsinoma cancer, which the doctors are monitoriing. I suffer from hair loss from the scalp of my head, hair growth on body and face; which I didn't have before. I can die if there is to much stress in my system, hormonal imbalance, irregular periods, loss of muscle, skin tissue, pain and numbness in the areas that were injected, areas that I did not have a problems with before the injection were administrated. I almost lossed my job; for job abandonment. I could not wake up in the morning I would fall into to a deep sleep, or would feel lathargic, disoriented, hallucinations, peranoia, and depression. The worst part about this, is that I cannot sue the hospital because 1. I work for the company 2. The hospital is privately owned and you cannot sue a privately owned hospital, you can only have an arbitration. The most you can get from these cases is $25.000, and no attorney wants to fight the company because it's to expensive to get a outside 2nd opinion, or they just don't think the case is strong enough to win. I'm in a real (rut)! This has also affected my sexual desire (no desire). I am 36, and I am a single parent with all these physical ailments.

Can anyone help ??????

Since I started taking Lisinopril 10mg, I have a dry cough and my blood sugar reading have increased considerably. Does this blood pressure medicine affect diabetes? I have has two severe dizzy spells , one prior to starting on Lisinopril that concerns me and was given Meclizine for the dizzy times. After having the dizziness I spent two-three days being lathargic and unable to do anything with weird feelings in my head.

Thanks, D. Stealey.

My husband and I had the pleasure of raising a beautiful, very smart grandson for the past 3 and a half years. Hunter had CP and epilepsy. Most of his siezures would last at least an hour which meant ER visits regularly. He took Keppra and Carbatrol and experienced few side effects from these medications,but still had siesures about once a month. Then he started having siezures more often. He was put on Topamax as an add on drug. He built up slowly to 150 Mg per day split into twice a day doses and still had two more siezures so 50 more Mg was added. During the time Hunter was on Topamax he suffered many side effects such as slurred speach, uncoordination, wetting his pants, agressive behavior, and lathargic. He was 5 years old and to young to discribe some of his symptoms. Everyone noticed that he was not the same child as he was before taking Topamax. We were very concerned and did discuss our concerns with his doctors. They felt that it was his body getting adjusted to the Topamax and that the symptoms would lesson when his systom leveled out. I did read that Topamax may cause nose bleeds and if he had a nose bleed to take him to his doctor. He had no nose bleeds till the morning of July 6,2005. I always slept with him because most of his siezures occured at night. It was just habbit for me to check him often if I woke up before he did. On the morning of July 6,2005, I got up at 6:A.M. made sure Hunter was okey and was getting things together for a trip to Magic Springs, an amusement park. Hunter was so excited the night before and all he could talk about was the fun he was going to have at Magic Springs. At 7:00 A.M. I checked on him. He was still asleep and okey. Again at 7:30 A.M. he was checked and was still sleeping and was okey. Twenty minutes later I went in his room to wake him and get him dressed for our trip. Hunter was laying at the foot of his bed face down in a pool of blood. When I turned him over blood was coming out of his nose massively, his face was blue. 911 was called, I did CPR on him till they got to our home, the EMT's did CPR and transported him to the ER. The doctors in ER tried to save him also. Hunter died July6,2005. When Hunter had his first nose bleed it was so massive no one could save him.

This is my fourth day on Celexa now. First day I felt very tired (yawning all the time), kind of spacey/slow, jaw hurt, nauseous yet strangely hungry, headache, lathargic and had a cramp in my leg that night. Day two I felt great except for another leg cramp that night and sleeping longer than normal. Day 3 I felt very tired, nauseated which calmed down a bit once I ate something and again very tired and slept longer than normal. Day four, so far I feel great with no side effects other than sleeping longer than normal, I feel alert and the spaceyness/lethargy is totally gone now along with the nausea which are the symptoms that bothered me the most. My depression has lifted substantially.

Severe diaper rash! Extremely lathargic.

I am 22 years old and I have been on the Yasmin pill for nearly two years...at first everything was fine. I was dating someone when I got on the pill and didnt really realize a change in my moods back then, but has been becoming more and more apparent now. I have never been the type to be depressed or have low self esteem, but within the past year I have noticed dramatic mood swings. I couldn't figure out why I felt so unhappy all of the time until I realized that this pill may be the cause. It was like I could almost feel my emotions plummet and I would start hating myself and worrying about insignificant things. I know they say that being in college sometimes brings on depression for different reasons, but never have I expirienced feelings quite like this.
Over time, my PMS has gotten worse and worse. I have a distorted image of my body, feelings of worthlessness, fatigue, and some anxiety in social situations. I have been wanting to go out less and less and be alone more and more. My appetite has increased and all I can sometimes think about is food. Luckily I work out like a maniac and weight gain really hasnt been a problem.
I have been on an emotional roller coaster for quite some time now and I am ready to get off! One minute I feel happy, the next minute I feel horrible inside, depressed, and lathargic. I feel tired all the time, even when I don't do anything during the day. Sometimes I rather sleep than do anything at all just to escape. I start worrying about things that I shouldn't worry about and sometimes I can't concentrate on things. The only reason I have stayed on the pill this long is because I have wanted my period to be regular, but if this is whats making me feel so unlike myself, I rather be irregular and happy!!! Honestly, I can say that there have been very few times when I have been happy in the past 6 to 8 months, Every once and awhile, I feel really happy and I can't believe how good it feels! Then it goes away. It's absolutely horrible. I urge you to get off this pill if you have been feeling this way as well. Taking something that messes with your hormones is not natural, and if it puts you on an emotional roller coaster ride, its not worth it! I finished my pack and I'm just getting over my period. I am going to see if I feel any better this upcoming week and I will post how I feel.

My husband is on this for bipolar disorder and I don't know if it's the medication working or the fact that I was about to leave him that made him act more stable...but either way, he's doing a lot better. He's also on paxil for depression. His job requires a lot of physical work and strain, so when he's at home in the evening relaxing or laying down-he's out! In other words, it can make you feel tired and lathargic. I was on this medication before too and it not only made me tired, but I was hungry all the time...not starving, but I just wanted to eat all the time. My advice: get checked regularly because this drug is hard on your liver...or is it your kidneys? One of those:) and exercise because you'll need the energy boost that working out gives a person. Hope this helps.

I have been diagnosed w Bipolar disorder, I am currently in a manic down state. I have always noticed that my body functions opposite. When I take a mild downer I feel hyper and when I take a stimulant I become lathargic. I read alot of complaints on lathargy. I have been on Zy for 5 days now. The first morning after taking the Zy my face was grosely sollen, I ould barely open my eyes. It hs goten better but still swollen everyday. I feel so hyper to the point of confusion. Ihear screams. I feel hungry all the time. I nearly passed out today, I got so suddenly light headed. I have slept 5-6 hrs per night since I been taking it and I dont feel tired at all

my son is 10 started taking zyprexa 1yr ago along with zoloft topamax straterra all for bipolar odd adhd...........since the zyprexa hes gained 35lbs maybe more hes VERY tired & lathargic THe weight gain is totaly unacceptable he also has the weakness in his legs hes too young to have these problems the benefits dont out weigh the side affects im weaning him off the zyprexa and at the same time starting Trileptal hopefully we can find something that can help us without all the BAD sideaffects.

I was prescribed this in conjunction with Biaxin for a sinus infection. I have more pain in my head, headaches, light headedness, nausea, and a very lathargic feeling. I also have extremely dry nasal passages. After reading the previous entries I am going to stop taking it. It can't hurt.
