Mixture symptoms and conditions

PS. If you've removed the Mirena and are trying to get your hair to grow back, this method was told to me by a friend in her late 60s with beautiful waist-length hair who used to go to a famous salon in New York (George Michael on Fifth Avenue). She has had severe seborrhea in the past and George told her about this treatment:

Solgar Brewer's Yeast, powdered (nothing else is good enough). One rounded tablespoon stirred into about 6 oz of water (not carbonated) immediately before bed - after using the bathroom one last time. Do this every night, no cheating, for 90 days. Pause for 30 days, then repeat if necessary. It must be powdered yeast; capsules/tablets won't do it.

I'm only 2 weeks into my first treatment with the yeast, and I still have the Mirena (but not for long), so I can't report on its effectiveness -- yet.

My 3 month old son was prescribed Omnicef for an ear infection, once a day for ten days. I was on the same drug for a sinus infection and the doctor felt that since I was breast feeding the baby and I should be on the same drug. First dose was Sunday night. On Monday my son developed red spots on his legs. On Tuesday he woke up with a rash all over his face/ears/neck basically all over his body. It progressively got worse that day with his eye lids swelling, and his hands being swollen. The Dr. took him immediately off the antibiotic and prescribed Benadryl every 6 hours. By Thursday the rash started to go away and on Friday he was rash free. The rash on his body was a mixture of a "flat" rash and a "raised" rash. No other symptoms and was a very happy child eating and sleeping normal. I was freaking out because he just looked awful, like he was sunburned all over body. Now I want to know if this will be a permanent reaction or something he will out grow? Pharm said Omnicef is a good drug and one that the newer drugs are being developed off of. J.

Im 15 and I never knew that singulair had the side effects that included mental/mood change or worsening depression, etc. Although I did find it strange that I always seemed moody or bi-polar, it never occurred to me that it would be caused by singulair. I've been taking it for about 3 years and before I went from 5mg to 10mg i use to have difficulty sleeping, but just last October when I started taking the 10mg i noticed an even greater change in my moods and mental thoughts, i was always sad, doubtful, mad, and was always thinking of all the negative things in life, in fact I even went through a really deep anxiety stage around the end of October, it was a mixture of the medication and stress i'm guessing, but I couldn't stop crying, I'd cry then forget the reason, start crying again, and wonder what i was crying about or why i was crying for such a thing that lasted for about an hour... Then when I ran out, i sort of just put the thought aside to refill them for the whole month of November and noticed i began to feel more... up-beat, very happy, I cant remember the last time I felt so great for such a long period of time, at least not during my pre-teen through teen years so far. All my friends noticed too, normally i would be complaining about how the day is going so bad, but i can't compare November to any other month during the past almost 3 years, although my asthma symptoms came back. So I started taking them again this Monday, and right away that night when I was doing homework, i was studying about tabacco all these thoughts rushed through my head, I felt bad for the people i loved that smoke, and I started crying, almost blaming myself for their smoking, when i stopped crying i started wondering why i cried... it made no sense, normally i'd just be like, "oh man... why do they waste their time doing that.." and forget about it, but the tired, sad, doubtful feelings came back right away. these past few days I've felt like that, and today before i was about to take my pill i looked at some new information that was never included before about the mental/mood changes, worsening feelings of sadness etc... and it all just hit me like a ball going 90mph.

I am going today to get this "thing" taken out after having it for 2 years i have realized this is the root to my problems!! I went to my yearly appointment last tues to learn that i have what is called lichen sclerosis (eczema of the butt) haha what the hell?? i though it was a joke, but come to find out it can cause skin cancer if gone with out treatment, and continuous scratching, and all of you who have experienced eczema know that you can't help but to scratch!! i was sure to give everyone a good laugh when i told them the findings so they prescribed a cream that made it worse, aching to find something to cure this incurable itch i made a mixture of oatmeal, honey, cinnamon, and mint yummy huh and put this on my "area". ohhh it helped and very little scratching for about 18 hrs now. i am so grateful for these posts my husband was thinking it was all in my head. on top of all this i was experiencing swollen labia, headaches, WEIGHTGAIN, moodiness,ibs,no periods(about the only thing that they will tell you), and much more. we'll see how it goes. good luck to you all. P.S. IF YOU HAVE MIRENA GET IT OUT NOW!!!!! thanks for your support!!

For about eight months or so I have been experiencing pretty intense anxiety. Thus, I was prescribed the generic Clonopin (Clonozepam). After building a tolerance to the increasing dosages I was prescribed, I found myself needing to take up to 10 mg daily. I became as many people told me, "a zombie". I developed extreme depression and constant bad thoughts. After talking to my doctor i was prescribed Paxil. I did not like this whatsoever so about two months ago I stopped taking the Clonopin abruptly. I experienced pretty severe withdrawals, or what i thought to be withdrawals (shaking, sweating, very irritable, constant pain, and anxiety). It was absolute torture. After talking to my doctor i was then prescribed Xanax, which i am currently on. My depression seems to have stayed constant. It was suggested to me to take Wellbutrin rather than Paxil, which of course i would have to wean off from my 100mg a day. Two weeks ago, or so, i started taking the Wellbutrin at 150mg once a day in the morning. After the first week or so i felt "up" more or less, in comparison to how i had been feeling. I began to research about possible side effects. I didn't really find many except mildy vivid dreams and anxiety, which threw me for a loop since i was trying to fight that, right? Well, after the first week i had been lowered on the Paxil to 50mg daily and raised to 300mg of Wellbutrin, once a day in the morning around 7am. I am now on my second week of the anti-depressant, but ironically i feel as if i am more depressed, just in other ways. I feel very lethargic, and i feel as if i am to be very "spacey". I'm not quite sure if it is the mixture of the medications or one in particular. But the most noticeable side effects of the Wellbutrin have been IRRITABILITY!!, veryyyyy indecisive, and ridiculously vivid dreams with little to no meaning. They seem to last for weeks on end at times, and i often find it hard to differentiate what is a dream and what is reality. By no means am i trying to say that this medication will not work for you. Anything to make someone feel better. Whatever works for you is great and you should persue it! Any suggestions or comments to this would be great. And is anyone feeling the same side effects??

I recently underwent a face lift and I left the surgery center with my whole scalp full of a mixture of betadine and blood. Two days later I showered and felt clumps of hair falling out of my head.

I started taking an increased dose of Lamictal from 100mg to 200g BD along with Tegretol CR200 and Tegretol CR400 BD. This mixture has resulted in fatigue, depression and an erotic sex drive - mostly on the side of decreased libido. My poor darling husband....

I am a 39 year old man with peripheral neuropathy and migraines. When I was diagnosed 3 years ago, the pain in my right leg was horrible and headaches daily. My Dr. put me on Topamax and I was so happy, it seemed to help but one night( about three weeks into it) I went to bed and awoke in the morning legally blind. Topamax was stopped that day but it took 4 months ( and changing the prescription in my glasses 3 times) for my vision to return to 20/20. The doctors tell me I was lucky as some people have perminate lens damage from the optical pressure change.
My doctor said I could not take any thing in that class of medications as it would probably have the same effect on me. So he decided to put me on Cymbalta for the neuropathy. He said it was being tested as a possible use for neuropathy but had not been proven. It works great for the pain and oddly my migraines have gone down to about two a month.

I have been on Yasmin for 3 years and everything seemed to be going okay,skin was great,moods were good and all was going to plan..until 6 weeks ago. I decided to go off the pill to give my body a break,during this time i was extremely moody and caused my boyfriend and i to have huge arguments all the time. So i decided to go back on it for the sake of our 6 year relationship.So i was off for a month then went back on it. Within 2 weeks of going back on it i started to feel anxious over the smallest things and had several uncontrollable panic attacks at very inconvenient times. At first i thought i was just run down but it started to happen everyday,on the tram,in social situations and finally even at home.Over nothing worth stressing about! As my heart would race i thought id go to the doctor and was put on a 24 holter ecg monitor to see if we could 'catch' the palpitations so it could be treated with medication. Nothing showed up,my levels were great and he couldn't give me an answer. I just happened to search Yasmin on the internet and found this website..and thank god i did!!I have been loosing my mind! I feel as tough i am loosing my spirit and becoming something that i am not.i can't do anything without being worried itl happen again,making me a nervous wreck. As soon as i read this website i went straight off it and have been off it for 3 weeks and i has not been fun! The first week i felt a little better,but the last two weeks have been hell! I feel weak,shakey,paranoid,over-stimulated,cold and clammy and wake up everyday feeling depressed and nauseous.I feel like screaming.I can't do anything i used to,i was a mad high level basketballer,went out to dance every weekend and loved life generally.I went to a natropath and got put on magnesium and a mixture of herbs to help the nervous system and they seem to be doing nothing.I seriously need some help and have no idea what to do,i can't keep putting up with this,its just not me...someone please tell me that i gets better???I feel like an addict coming off heroin!

I started taking Lotrel 5/20 about 7 days ago. The dry cough is out of control. I have it all day long and it's worse at night. It even wakes me up. The worse thing its hat it doesn't seem to be doing that good a job for me as far as lowering my bp. I'm not taking that on it's own either. My doctor has me taking Hydrochlorothiazide with it.
But all that aside....
If you can't get rid of the dry cough that some along with the Lotrel..you have to try Buckley's Mixture cough suppressant.
The Pharmacist suggested it. OMG i's the nastiest stuff I've ever tasted but......I swear it works. The dry cough was really bothering me and my chest was starting to really hurt from it. This took the edge off really well. I'm just suggesting this for people who find that the Lotrel works for them but the cough is just too much to handle. Buckley's works.
I on the other hand probably have to try another bp med because Lotrel isn't working for me.

I am 57 and have had asthma most of my life. I am on Advair with a mixture of other stuff. I recently have had issues with panic attacks and slight depression. I show dogs in agility and have scratched from trials because of it. I started with Advair in June. Aside from the panic I have many of the other symptoms noted on this site. Feel better hearing from other folks, good to know it isn't just me!

I am on my 7th day of 500mg/once a day clarithromycin, prescribed to me for a sinus infection. On the third day, I read all of the below comments and had a mild panic attack fueled by paranoia. Once I came back to reality, and in touch with my body, I realized which, in fact, of the common side effects I have been experiencing. The most notable is sleeplessnes. I have been having very intense dreams which have been waking me up every 30 to 45 minutes; upon waking my mind is charged and rearing to go. This side effect was attended to by a prescription of Ambien, made to me for this specific incidence. The Ambien has helped, I am now getting a solid 5 hours of sleep, still intense dreams, but sleep. For someone who typically requires 8 -10 hours a night, I find this 5 hour deal amusing. I don't feel particularly tired as a result, although I admit it has only been a week - it could catch up with me. This brings me to the other most obvious side effect, which I can only describe as mania - ready to go go go, constantly up, alert, ambitious (for what, I am not sure). Again, for a groggy girl like me these are actually welcome side effects! Other than that, I am experiencing a small amount of gas, and a slight spacieness (lack of sleep? or just an effect?). For these I have found lots of yougurt, fresh foods, and fluids, all in small servings and at regular intervals, ie: every 1 1/2 - 2 hours, to be allievating. My infection seems to have cleared up, I have a small amount of clear drainage in the morning, no more facial tenderness, headaches, and obviously my sense of fatigue is gone. All in all, I must say I would take this antibiotic again, which is not how I usually feel after most antibiotics I have, as an adult, taken.

Well Advair has worked for me I guess after reading this I realize there are some side affects I feel with advair, back pains, joint pains, I know if I don't take it for 4 days or longer I have an attack and also I have noticed my mouth gettting dry and stuff.I am taking birthcontroll to and I am wondering if anyone out there is having any problems with this mixture. Because I have had chest pains every now and then I think I am going to get off the pill and see what happens.

I just started Depakote about a month ago. I'm just now getting what I believe to be "side effects" or they could be from a mixture of meds that I take (Zoloft and wellbutrin in the morning, and Depakote Temazapam and amblify at night). I am haveing hair loss...which is fine with me cuz my hair is so thick anyways. I'm starting to lose weight, and lately my legs have been hurting. As of the last week or so I've become a total bitch. I am irritated all the time and wish people around me would just leave me alone. There is a good chance that I may even end my relationship....just on a count of my moods and bitchiness. I see the Dr on the 2nd so hopefully there is a happy median somewhere

I feel very weak and nausea's within 15 mins. of taking Lescol.At first I was on Lipitor and thought the symptoms were caused from that med. I have been on Lescol for about 4 months now and I have the same symptoms. I also take Labetol (high blood pressure med) and thought it was the mixture. I have to take them both at bedtime. The same thing occurs. I am only 39 and been on meds now for 10 yrs. I guess it's time to call the fly. Dr. again and see if the meds. are the problem. And figure out what to do next.
