Major pain symptoms and conditions

I have been on Yasmin for about 3-4 years. First couple of years was great and it worked for me to have a period. Over the last few years I have had weird issues. Light bleeding for eight weeks, pain on the right side. Had an endometrial biopsy that came back fine. Was put on Yasmin and Provera together. Have been having anxiety issues which was caused by Provera when I was on it a few years ago. Went back for for major pain on right side, had a CT Scan, doctor said it showed some white spots on the ovary that typically mean benign or it could be a dermoid cyst and it was nothing to worry about. Over the last few months have had major back and hip pain that is bad while on the Yasmin and Provera and goes away when off for the week. Have seen a new doctor, am scheduled for a MRI tomorrow and tested for PCOS and will have the results next Tuesday. I do not know if my symptoms are from the Yasmin or not, but I am about to take my self off of it to see if things improve. Also have had the tingling arms and legs and hair loss over the last few months. I can not clearly confirm the symptoms are caused by birth control as I have looked all over the internet and found very little. I have found one article that said arm and leg tingling while on birth control is a symptom b/c of the reducing of B-12 while on birth control and one article that stated that a study overseas showed that women on birth control experience back pain more then women not on.

Have been on Prednisone before(3 times in the past year and a half) but always low doses-10mg,down to 2.5mg over 10 days. This time I went from 20mg, weening down to 5mgs,been on it for a total of 5 weeks now for Rheumetoid Arthritis.Before that was on Relifen,then clinoril-both caused side effects with my liver. Was worried about the whole "moon face, weight gain" thing. Have heard such horror stories about it,even at that low of a dose. So far ,have not gained any weight, in fact have lost 3 pounds in the past 4 weeks.Can move my hand again with out major pain.The only side effects I have had are easy bruising,muscle pain in legs and very dry mouth. Will be weened off completly in another week, then going to start Mobic.

I have been on Lipitor ( 10mg) for 4 years-side effects are terrible. I have loss of hair, major pain in shoulder area-and in left arm.
Loss of feeling in feet has progressed from the toe area to the middle foot. Eye sight is affected-vision dims at times. Short term memory loss is increasing, loss of sleep at night due to pain in shoulders. I can not hold my arms above my head for any length of time. I also loss my balance 2-3 times per week for no apparent reason.
Costipation is a continuing problem-I must take a stool softner daily to over come that effect.
I have also experienced small red blister like sores (?) on my arms from time to time. Pain is so severe in shoulders the past few days that standard pain killers ( aspirin, tylenol. Aleve ) do not help. Effective in the morning I'm taking myself off this terrible drug.
