Nauseated symptoms and conditions

It has been hell on earth. In order for the Seroquel to tame down my anxiety and mood swings I needed to be on 400 mg. However, anything more than 25mg and I could not stay awake during the day for more than an hour or two. When it did work for the anxiety at 400mg, I felt like I had had a lobotomy. Quitting Seroquel is just as bad if not worse. I am so nauseated I cannot function. I sit around all day trying all sorts of stomach remedies and trying not to vomit. I have also been experiencing violent diarrhea. I can hardly sleep and yet I am horrifically tired. The withdrawals for this are worse than Effexor. I would fervently try to discourage anyone from using this drug. Unless you like feel like the walking dead.

Servere abdominal pain upper left, extreme swelling of legs and feet, nauseated at time, blood pressure high most of the time, weight gain that I can't seem to lose.

I took one injection of Lupron for fibroids in Nov. 2001. It totally changed my life, I am no longer the same person I was before. It started with severe migraine headaches for 14 days straight and attacks of nausea, lack of appetite. I used to have a strong stomach - now I was very easily nauseated. I never went for the second shot. I began to have panic attacks regularly (I had not had them for over 20 yrs). I was tired all the time, and a person who used to work out at the gym 5 days a week - eventually I quit. Now I just walk. I feel about 65 yrs old (I am just 49). I look old, my face began to droop, my hair thinned. I had bouts of depression coupled with general anxiety. My migraines worsened. My sex drive dropped to zero, I feel almost "sexless". I used to be confident, now I was afraid of everything. I now suffer from irritable bowel syndrome - with bouts of diarrhea, bloating and severe gas pains. I have trouble eating sometimes.. I have had all the tests and no one can find anything wrong with me,and none of the doctors think all these problems are due to Lupron. But, I know - I was NOT like this before Lupron. It ruined my life. I just wish my doctor would have informed me of all the terrible side effects - she only told me about hot flashes. I looked into suing her for malpractice but the lawyers said they could not build a case with no real medical evidence that my symptoms are caused by Lupron. I just wish I had known then what I know now. I tell everyone - NEVER take Lupron. Six years later and I still feel like this. Oh what I wouldn't give to have not taken that drug.

Hi all, I'll be finishing up my first week on Loestrin this Sunday. My OBGYN put me on this due to overlong periods and bad cramping. This is my first experience with a BC, so I'm a little bit nervous about it. For the past several days, I have been getting really nauseous. It's not a constant thing, one minute I'm fine and the next I feel like I need to dart in to the bathroom. I'm not too worried about any weight gain because that is something that I could probably use, but the nausea is concerning me a bit. I have to go back to the gyno sometime next week, so I can probably ask about it there, but reading the comments on this page has got me a little bit nervous. Should I try to wait it out and see if things get better, so should I quit while I'm ahead?

I am so glad I found this site, because I thought I was coming down with some rare disease. I went on Femcon because I had been on Yaz and started having serious migraines that kept me in bed for days at a time. I have been on Femcon for two months now and I have had every symptom mentioned here. Here is everything in a nut shell. I have felt extremely deepressed and moody to the point of possibly thinking on seeking help for depression. I am mostly angry and sad. I have experienced problems in the past when I was on Ortho Tri Cyclen of feeling paranoid all the time, this was different. I have cramps not just during my periods, but all the time. I also have had really bad aches and pains all over my body especially in my back and legs, feels like the flu. I have been so tired during the day that I have actually fallen asleep at my desk only to go to bed at night and wake up after only a few hours of sleep. I have been also having hot flashes at night. I have had constant headaches although less severe than when on Yaz. I have been gassy, bloated, nauseated and now have had diarrhea off and on for over a month. I have also noticed having a lot of sinus pain and pressure as well. I have also had spotting on days 12 & 13 but no period when I am supposed to have one. I also had the some fluttering in my chest and my breast are swollen and the nipples darkened. I have completely lost all interest in sex and when I am on the brown pills and feel like having sex, it is like all the moisture has been removed from my entire body and I can't enjoy it. Despite knowing I haven't been having much sex, I think I'm pregnant all the time. I have also gained about ten pounds despite no changes in my diet. I also feel nauseous sometimes after eating lunch especially. I take my pills at night and I don't chew them so I'm not sure if that is the problem or not. I have an appointment to go back to the doctor in a month. I'm thinking of calling her to change before that now that I know my symptoms are not a strange disease, but more than likely a result of the medicine. Thanks everyone for being willing to share your experiences. I hope I can find a pill that was as good as Yaz without the migraines.

i have never been on birth control before and i just finished my first pack of loestrin. The first week or so i was a little nauseated in the mornings but it was nothing that was unbearable. I was really concerned about gaining wieght but i have not ..i also work out about 6 days a week... my obgyn said the only reason people can gain wieght on these pills is because it can increase your appetite..i have not noticed any increase. I have noticed however that my breasts are tender and i THINK they may be bigger- it could be in my head though. All these other user comments are making me nervous. The other side effect which i find th emost horrible is how much the co pay is when i get a new pack .. i may go off of it just becasue of that alone and find a generic pill. I also have not gotten my period yet, once this pack i missed a pill so i took two the next night and the next morning i spotted.. was this my period?? i have no idea.

I was diagnosed bipolar a year ago and worked my way up to 200 mg of Lamictal a day but recently desided to wean myself off of it as I have found some chinese herbs that will stabilize my moods without the side effects. Since being on Lamictal, I have had horrible pain in my left foot when I walk and it just kept getting worse. The pain got so bad I could not stay at work. I am a welder and have to be on my feet all day but after two hours I would be in so much pain and have to take tylenol 3 with codeine just to make it through an 8 hour shift. I am now down to 25mg of lamictal and soon to be totally off. My foot is now healing and I feel great personally. I am not irritable or moody but am taking Chinese herbs . I noticed when I got myself down to the 100 mg level then went to 75 mg of Lamictal, I got really sick like I had pnuemonia and I had severe chills, bad headache, swollen lymphnodes and very nauseated with no appetite for three days. I lost 5 pounds during this time. I got through it but felt like I was haveing a illegal drug withdrawal big time.
Lamictal was poison to my system. I feel great now. I can now start to run and exercise again. For anyone who has interest, go to Ron Teegaurdens Dragon Herbs web site and find a natural way. you will be much happier.
Lamictal is bad stuff.

I've been taking Femcon Fe since the end of July of this year! My breasts feel really tender as if I am going to start my menstrual period and i have tiny cramps. Sometimes I get upset about little things and I cry over it for about five minutes then get mad that I was crying. The worst thing is I constantly have headaches and and every little thing triggers my headaches..ie sunlight, loud noises. Most of all I get nauseated and dizzy and feel like I am going to throw up at the worst times possible. I dont think this pill is working out for me, especially since I am a college student and the pill is only making me lazy and tired all the time!

I have been taking Yasmin for almost 2 weeks and already I'm noticing major side effects. Both good and bad. I have lost a little bit of weight and my breasts have gotten a little bigger. But those positives don't outweigh the negatives. I had one day of horrible naseua but that didn't last long. My skin has been a little pimple-prone but I'm not sure if that's due to the pill. I have had some spotting, but I know that that is normal and something I can live with temporarily. The MAJOR thing is I have never been prone to getting depressed or being emotionally unstable, but ever since I've been taking this pill I am constantly insecure and crying over absolutely nothing. I am sensitive to everything. I never used to be like this at all. I mean, I am human and I will have my downtimes, but this is too noticibly different. After googling the side effects and seeing depression as the first thing to pop up, I know that this must be the reason for my sudden mood changes. Even if they are temporary, I am not taking the chance. I am going off of this pill as soon as possible. Has anyone else experienced these problems after being on the pill for a short time? I'm wondering how long it takes to get back to 'normal'.

Obviously every pill is going to have different side effects for different people. I'm sure this pill could work fine for some people. But I don't like the effect it has had on me.

I’m 46 and have been newly diagnosed with high BP (132/92). I’m taking LISINOPRIL, 10mg. My only symptom at this time is, ear congestion/head fullness. I have also felt a little nauseated at times. This is day 2; my expectations are positive. I’m hoping the side affects won’t become more serious; such as the testimonials I’ve read so far. Good luck to the rest of you…

Wow after reading all these postings I'm nervous, just had a kenalog shot yesterday for a possible disk problem (MRI in a week). I am concerned about the possible indentation at the injection site (lower back) as I had a similar situation develop years ago and saw a surgeon, who thought it was some calapsing of the muscle. I went in for surgery under local ann., but when they got in they found it had roots and was growing, to late to go under general and they had to dig it out. The most pain I have ever experienced, it was benign and now I had a kenalog shot in the same area and to make matters worse I still have the same pain today as I did yesterday.

I'm a 37 y/f that has had three children. I took bc way back when in my teen years but never needed it again till now. I've been on the pill 7 days. I was wondering how often anyone gets really bad nausea and vomiting with this pill? I've been sick everyday. I was advised to take the pill before I went to bed and to make sure I had some type of heavy protein to stick in my stomach while i was sleeping to calm the nausea... But that has not worked. within 4 hours of waking i'm feeling very nauseated... 90 percent and will get "ill" each night before I go to work. At first I thought it was a stomach bug... doc said I could expect some nausau but didn't want to switch me for the first month. Will this nausau feeling go away? It's very hard for me to do my job and be sick alot. Anyone have suggestions? I have nausau, vomitting, stomach pains and major acidity in my stomach. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks

My daughter has just started taking Femcon FE. On the second day she took the pill she thought she was starting to get a urinary track infection. By the fourth day she had a pain in her lower back, vomiting feeling terrible. The doctor is saying the pill has noting to do with it. Has anyone else had these symptoms with this pill?

I have been taking 200 mg of lamictal for about 3 years. I am on no other medication. I too have the dry hacking cough that never ever goes away. All day and all night. Dry hacking cough that sometimes leads to gagging. It is terrible. I have had chest xrays, breathing tests and no one can find a reason for the cough. It started about the same time I started this medication and I believe it is the cause. I also experience pain in muscles, it's a roving pain that seems to show up in different places daily, sometimes muscle spasms. My stomach is always nauseated. Very little short term memory, runny nose all the time, constant feeling of having a cold, blurry vision, sensitive to light, little red bumps that appear on my skin, itch, then when they disappear, a scar is left like a cigarette burn. I am reducing the amount of lamictal I take as of this week. I am now only taking 175 mg and will for another week then go down to 150 mg. I am hoping some of these side effects will go away, if not I have to get off of it altogether. It's funny, because I didn't have all these side effects when I first started taking it. Seems the longer I take it the worse it gets. Just can't handle it anymore. wf

I started taking geodon 8 days ago and today I woke up and have been clenching my jaw all day. I cant stop the clenching and it is really making my face hurt. Also, I have been running a slight fever , am nauseated, and am running around like a jack rabbit. I too have been having unusual dreams. Last night I was experiencing boughts of coughing as well.

I started taking sulfameth on Monday (so 4 days ago). I noticed right after I started taking it that the nausea I felt from the UTI was not going away, my mouth started to get dry, I've had a minor headache constantly since starting it and when I got up in the morning (a couple of hours after taking the pill) I was very shaky and it wouldn't stop until I had eaten something. Then, last night, my blood sugar dropped. I got incredibly nauseated, dizzy, I felt like I was going to faint, I started shaking, I felt panicked and it did not subside until a candy was shoved into my mouth. It also felt like my tongue was a little swollen. Based on what I've seen, this med should be recalled.

I went to the dentist to have three old fillings replaced, he administered a shot to each side of my lower jaw, telling me he was injecting it directly into the jaw bone itself instead of the nerve. I also experienced an enormous reaction, heart racing, felt like I was loosing consciousness. The dentist noticed my reaction, had the assistant put a cold towel on my head. But after I recovered, he administered more on the other side! The whole reaction started again, this time more intense. The effect lasted for over an hour, I had to wait in the office before I felt ready to drive home. I will insist on a full explanation of what is being administered next time, and if the dentist objects, I will leave the chair.

Hello Everyone, My name is chere' and i have been taking Yasmin for 5 months now and what i thought would be a good decition to take the pill considering that i'm older, would effect my life my health and my personality. Taking the pill i've noticed alote of change in my body and what i thought would be normal side effects turned out to be everyday. when taking the pill i had nausea, rapid mood swings, loss of appetite, losing wieght, anxiety attacks and just over whelming depression. i thought i was crazy. i had about 4 brake downs in the past month to where i felt like i couldnt control it. I never ever had an anxiety attack until i took the pill and every morning i feel nauseated, and had a hard time gaining appetite. what made me get off the pill was Rapid mood swings and my heart. hopefully now i will be me again :) i found the root of the problem and i feel sooooooooooo realived that i wasnt crazy.

This was the worst experience! I started taking Doxy to rid myself of infection that might be caused due to a vaginal procedure. I started taking the med on Monday afternoon, by Thursday night my legs and arms were on fire it seemed. The tingly feeling you are talking about. I completely lost my appetite. I was tired, weak, lightheaded, nauseated. Here it is five days after I have stopped the med and I still feel the burning, tingly skin. Also, I had muscle pain that caused my skin to be sore to even touch. I cringed at the thought of someone touching me for two days. NEVER AGAIN will I take this. I mean, after all, it's strong enough to be used for ANTHRAX, how strong does that have to be?

I am on 300mg for bipolar. I am having trouble concentrating, remembering (i forget what i'm doing while i am doing it!), I often worry about driving-just don't feel like i can focus well enough-riding down the road thinking "hope i know what i'm doing". It is like i daydream constantly with periods of not daydreaming. I feel pretty cheerful and not having any real emotional problems, but the physical problems are a mess. I am so tired that i feel like every single day is a "well i'm sick today, i'll give myself a break, maybe i'll feel better tomorrow". i do have better days sometimes, but for the most part, i feel kind of useless-not "useless" like i'm depressed-i mean "useless" like i get nothing done and it takes me two hours to get some lunch for myself and my three-yr-old child, and i mostly sit around because i'm "taking a break" and my legs are so sore or i have a headache or i feel shaky, or nauseated - each day, i feel so sleepy i am desperate for my husband to get home to care for my daughter (and me)-it feels like i took NyQuil or Benadryl or something! So, i am literally pretty useless. It's such a shame. I can't find a medicine to help me cope, it is always a trade-off...and going on and off them to try another is a nightmare. At least, right now, it is just a daydream...

i'm 16 and i've been taking it for about a week...and i took it as a random start like around 2 weeks after my period...i have no side effects yet..so i think dats good...i'm like 2% nauseated ...so i can barley feel it...it made my skin better so far...i heard it doesnt prtect you from pregnancy da first 7 days ....is that true...cuz now i'm worried

yasmin worked great for me in that it cleared up my skin, lessened my bad mood swings, and made my period a lot lighter. i did gain weight though. i recently stopped it and for about a week i'd feel nauseated at the sight or smell of food. eating made it worse. i also would have my temperature rise up on me a lot. it felt like hot flashes and i'm only eighteen! i lost five pounds after stopping yasmine.

My dermatologist put me on Yaz a little less than 2 weeks ago for acne. I've been bleeding ever since! I'm really getting worried about it and have been debating calling my gyn to see what the deal is. Has anyone else bled like crazy with Yaz? How long did it take to stop? My flow is probably medium and bright red...with no signs of stopping at the moment. I also have had a horrible headache for about 3 days, can't sleep, have lower back pain, and feel extremely nauseated. This pill is horrible!

He seems to be having alot of stomach problems....Please tell me if you have had any similar withdrawls

Even since I started taking it, I've been getting really hot unexplainably and sweating, and unable to cool down no matter what. I also have been having weird dreams, I wake up all during the night and think I see things on the walls or things flying in my room. Last night I looked out the window and thought I saw my brother on the roof next door. also at night, things seem really close to me. The worse though is I'll be sitting down doing nothing and then break into a sweat that just won't stop for a few hours, it happens about 2 hours after I take the pills in the morning and night. Then I'm a little out of it for awhile, sometimes nauseated. Oh yeah the sex drive is zero! which my boyfriend is not appreciating.
