Makes me sick symptoms and conditions

i'm 15 and have been on the medication for a couple of weeks. i feel like my vision is blurred. other symptoms i have are bleeding in the nose, dry cough,trouble concentrating, my leg won't quit moving, and i can't eat. looking at food just wants to make me hurl because when i do eat, i get a terrible stomach ache or sometimes i just tasting the food makes me sick. my head always hurts and my legs are weak just after walking up stairs. that's not normal for me. also, i'm always thirsty and i have trouble remembering things, which i didn't before.

I switched to wellbutrin about 6 mo. ago and have noticed crazy hair lose... it is on my pillow in the morning, on the sofa after watching t.v., on the back of my shirt, and coming out by the handfulls when shampooing or brushing my hair. What use to be a full, thick head of hair... is now so thin I don't always brush my hair everyday (makes me sick to see all the hair). I talked to my dr. about it and she said it must be my blood sugar and that I needed to lose weight for it to go away.... um, yeah... eating low carb, walking, and still losing just as much hair... I am giving her a call today after reading that HAIR LOSS IS A SIDE EFFECT!

Ive been using NR since january. I got diagnosed with migranes about 2 years ago so when i started getting them frequently i figured id just go back to my doctor to find something else to help. Ive tried about 4 different pain killers inluding muscle relaxer shots, to try to ease muscle tension headaches. I love the ring because im horrible with remembering to take a pill every day! Ever since ive been on the ring ive been very upset i was really happy when i found this site. it showed me that i wasnt the only one feeling this. My migranes are so bad i cant keep my eyes open. I argue with my boyfriend more than ever because he tells me im too emotional and i cry too much. I dont know what to do because i want to be on something i dont have to remember to take everyday. I use to be on lo-overal.. it worked great but i have really good gag reflexes and the pill isnt coated so it would dissolve before you had time to swallow it! Now every time i take a pill i gag remembering what it was like to take lo-overal. It makes me sick thinking of it. Has any one ever tried the shot? Or does anyone else know of any other options besides pills? if so PLEASE let me know!

This is my second time on Nuva ring..the 1st time which was about 3 years ago ..I stayed on it for 7 or 9 months.. and I didnt have any side effects... it was great!
Now the 2nd time around.. I got on it in March of 2007.... 3 months later..Im depressed, I have crying spells..things that I would not normally cry over ..it makes me sad..., Sex is a challenge for me because Im not wet enough..so ky jelly has become my friend... and I hate it!!!! I have lost so much weight!! I was 130 before I started and now Im 116...I have loss of appetite...it makes me sick to see people eat large amounts of food.....BUT God knows I need to EAT!!! So Im getting off this mess and back on the pill...

Nauseated yes yes yes!
Nausea and the anxiety feeling in my arms has been my 2 worse symptoms
Thats why I have lost 11 lbs

Iam nauseated as we speak.
I use to have a great appetite and slept like a baby and never had anxiety befor the pill

I have my doctor today and she swears its me not the pill makes me sick dont even want to go but what choice do I have
I have devloped this weird sore in my mouth its gross

I felt well last night but woke up and my arms feel numb and anxiety its like the nerves in my arms are damaged they feel tingly and numish and shakey???/ Anyone have the arm anxiety or whatever it is

i wrote to berlex I demaded money for missed time at work pain and suffering and my medical bills paid they wont do anything
I called several lawyers none want to take the case.

I wasnt just a little sick I have been deeply affected bad I dont know if everyone out there is as bad as Dejay and I are Iam going to lose my job so its life altering for me

I have this terrible taste in my mouth as well it is thick and its bitter its so annoying ai cant stand it almost metallic

Migrane's (which I never had before), Can't eat anything, I can only drink water everything else makes me sick. Body aches, a lot of cold sweats.

Took this for short time for severe rash. 6 first 2 days then 5,4,3, 2, 1. I feel like I am jumping out of my skin. The sight of food makes me sick, DARK DARK moods, cannot even focus b/c it seems overwhelming. Have to take an extra sleeping pill to sleep, very sore throat, rash has lessened but still get new spots, can't sit still and I am extremely sure if I had to be on this stuff any longer I would be needing some antidepressants. This is some scarey medicine and i pray deeply for you who have to take it long term.

My daughter who is 13 had to have the shot last year around Nov or Dec 2005 and she has a huge indentation in her buttocks area. We were not warned about this side effect, if I had been I would not have agreed to it. One doctor did not even know what it was, she just prescribed itch medicine. The hole is so large you can stick a thumb in it. The next doctor told us it was a permanent side effect, that the fat beneath the skin has been melted away. So now I am planning to take her to a dermatologist hoping that they can fill it with resitilan, but the thought of having a cosmetic procedure on a 13 year old makes me sick. However I cannot expect her to be ok with such a disfigurement on her body.
I would like to know what an attorney had to say about your disfigurement. The manufacturer of this drug is responsible for doing this to people, this issue is not being talked enough about in the media. The public needs to know.

I was prescribed Sulfameth/trimethoprim because of a small infection on my knee after replacement surgery. From the very first pill I have been extremely irritable, the sight of most food makes me sick, I have sweats and once a chill, I have NO energy, nightmares and a general depressed feeling for 10 hours after each pill. I have 2 whole hours I feel normal until the NEXT pill. I am TRYING to stick it out for the full 10 days, since I was told not to discontinue taking it! I will be SOOOOO happy when I have taken the last pill!!!

I have been on Advair for about 1 month. It has helped my asthma but I am concerned about my throat. Sometimes it is such a strain to speak. At first I thought I was getting laryngitis but then I came to the conclusion that it was a side effect of the Advair. I do not get soar throat symptoms but I am really concerned about the possible damage this drug may have on vocal cords, larynx or the throat in the long term. I just assume go back on an albuterol inhaler which helped my asthma just as well. I have used singulair (the directions say to take at night) but I have to make sure that I'm practically asleep, otheriwise, it makes me sick to my stomach and horrible acid reflux.

My 3 yr old son was diagnosed with croup. Several days later it appeared to be going towards the lungs. His cough was more asthma-like so started neb with albuterol. A couple days later, he was still on neb but coughing almost nonstop. He was exhausted that night but hadn't been able to sleep b/c of the coughing. First, tried cough syrup. At two hours, no relief. Thinking back to last Spring and the cough relief he had with Singulair, I pulled out his still valid Rx and gave him one. Great relief! Around the same time the next night, coughing attack returned so hubby and I thought we'd try to give him relief one more night. Next day, we awake to a terror child. Crying and fits all day. That night, we notice he's talking in his sleep and grinding his teeth so loud we can hear it in our room. His last dose of Singulair was Thursday night. It's Monday AM and I still don't have "my son" back. If anyone has reassurance on how long it takes to recover from this, please email me at ******. I am praying that my sweet, laid-back son returns (sure, he'd throw the 3 yr old attitude out occasionally). This angry, irrational child I'm living with right now just breaks my heart. He doesn't deserve this... I want my happy, cuddly sweetheart back! There are so many cases like ours that I've read that it just makes me sick that I wasn't warned. He will never take Singulair again and I'm going to research more natural solutions for allergies, etc. What a tragedy that I hope doesn't take a long term toll on my son!

Hey BitterRN,

I, too, have looked around for lots of bad posts on other birth controls besides Yasmin. Yasmin seems to be the ONLY birth control (besides the patch and the shot-which are causing deaths and such) that people are complaining about. On this site I've looked at other birth controls and there are only like two threads for each one and they all say good things about the pills. I've talked to a lot of women and have seen their posts on this other forum I'm on and most of them started feeling bad when they started to take Yasmin. They've had no other problems with birth control until taking these horrible pills! I just can't believe they still have this crap on the market, honestly! It makes me sick to my stomach wondering how many women are out there without any internet and having such horrible problems like severe depression and other bad side effects... they probably don't think it's related to Yasmin at all!

It really just infuriates me.. I feel so stupid for trusting my Doctor. He said "this is the best pill out there right now." If it's so wonderful why am I still battling depression two months off of the crap? UGH!

Also, in addition to the last post, I cannot have any alcohol, even as little as one drink with a meal makes me sick. I am eating only around 1000 calories a day because my stomach can't handle much more. For someone my size, this could end up becoming a major problem soon enough.

HELP!

So I was just perscribed Yasmin and have not started taking it yet. I have a hard time with hormonal birth control because it makes me sick to my stomach. Did any of you expierence vomiting while taking this pill?

After reading this fourm, I am thinking that there is a better choice out there for me. I should start my pack a week from this Sunday.... but from the sound of this, this is a bad idea....

Let me know what you think! and please let me know about the upset stomach

I'm 28 and just in the past 2 years I've developed some allergies, and just recently got on Advair for breathing difficulty. I had been using my Albuteral, and got irritated having to use it just about every 4 hours. So Advair worked awesome for the first week 1/2 but now it's been two weeks and I'm starting to get bad side effects. The thrush in my throat...even with washing my mouth out thoroughly. Weight gain I just noticed this week, and dizziness, cloudy thinking, headaches, and wondered why my back has been sore when I haven't even done much hard work?? Well,thankfully to this website I know I'm not crazy and ADVAIR is horrible. Tonight i'm convinced and getting off of it. I'm going to try and go a more Holistic route if possible and use my albuterol for the time being. I do wonder like some of you mentioned about kick backs. Makes me sick!!!!!!!! And it's true about the bullying, I go in next tuesday to check on my thrush.....she's not going to like what I have to say!!!!!!!!!! Wish me luck!!!

Wow, I can hardly believe all that I'm reading. The realization that I have so many of the same symptoms as all of you has brought me more comfort than I have had in months since taking this wretched pill. I am CONSTANTLY tired, though oddlyl I have difficulty sleeping at night. I am paranoid, moody, and depressed. To think I actually was discussing my need to consider anti-depressants with my boyfriend and friends recently makes me sick. My sex drive is definitely not what it used to be and I often get dizzy spells. I seriously cry at LEAST 5 times a day. NO ONE reading this should ever think these things are normal...that is what I have taken with me from this message board. The things we are feeling are completely unnatural and abnormal & we should all talk to our gynocologists.

Unfortunately, I just started a new pack so there's no turning back this month. Is there anyone out there who is experiencing significant fatigue and can give me suggestions on relief they may have found? Is my only relief going to be when I stop this pill next month or is there SOMETHING I can do in the meantime?

My most sincere thanks and best wishes go out to all of you who have posted on this website.

I have all these complainants and I have tingling in my lip and tongue. I feel bad all the time and have pain in my right side and in my joints. I have a bad liver but I think it is causing it to be worse. It melts in my mouth half the time before I can drink water. My throids have gone back to normal. But I am tired of taking stuff that makes me sick. I had to go on Protonix for the acid reflux that I have now.

weight gain; tempomandibular tension; lethargy (but may just be my chronic fatigue??); my headache pattern has gone skyhigh!!! Help! My insurance won't pay for my Prozac; the generic makes me sick to my stomach, and so now my "relief" is Zoloft. I even went off birth control thinking that was making my headaches worse and causing the weight gain; and then I took a pregnancy test...none of the above...
