Nauseous symptoms and conditions

I am so glad i found this.. i have experienced a lot of the things that everyone else has.. i have been on lisinopril for six months and i am only 26 years old. I frequently have tingling in arms and legs and am usually kind of nauseous or dizzy. Mentally, i have never felt so down before and i thought it was just normal to question things in my life at 26, but i think it may be because of this drug.. i have a doctor's appt in three days and i am going to try and get off of this drug.

I am 49 years old and got the Mirena for heavy bleeding / perimenopause systems. I was told I would probably stop having periods a couple months after insertion and that appealed to me. I had it put in place on Friday October 30. Insertion was uncomfortable but over quickly and I did not bleed much as a result. I woke up Saturday nauseous with a head ache and tingly feelings in my extremities. I also felt this thing inside me. I laid on my side, I could feel it. I felt a heaviness inside. I took tylenol and Pepto for headaches and nausea but it persisted. I felt very tired and my skin itched. Sunday the same thing. Tingling, headache, nausea and the sensation of having a foreign object inside. My abdomen hurt too. I took tylenol and Pepto but as the day went on I felt worse. I wanted it out! I called a Consulting Nurse who recommended I go to Urgent Care. I went to Urgent Care last night. My blood pressure was very high as well. The Dr said it was a reaction to the hormone. I got the think taken out and felt immediately better. Today my skin itches but that will go away. I have decided to try natural Progesterone cream and other natural methods vs. synthetic hormones.

I've been on Femcon for about 6 months and next month I will finally be off it. The first 2 months, I was constantly lethargic, depressed, nauseous, but I gave it a go since my doctor told me it would take a couple of months before the medication can do its thing. Around the 3-4 month period I thought I started getting used to it, but I couldn't lose weight even though I go to the gym 5 days a week. Then around the 5-6 month period, I started breaking out badly around my chin & cheek area. I've never had breakouts this bad. I thought it was because of my dog since he slept on my bed, but even after removing him from the sleeping area into another room, the breakouts continued and eventually got worse. I use topical acne medication that help but cannot stop the breakouts. It has been very frustrating. I've also experienced in between bleeding if I do not take the pill at the same exact time everyday, which never happened when I was on Ortho TriCyclen. I cannot wait to get off this medication!

I've been on Losetrin 24 Fe for about a month and a week.
I've noticed some irritability, nausea, shortness of breath, bloating, and increase in acne. I had sex with my boyfriend after taking the pill for a little over two weeks, he didn't ejaculate inside of me, but I missed my period when it was supposed to come, and instead I just had about two days of really light spotting. I feel bloated constantly and get a little nauseous after eating. I've also had a serious lack of energy. No weight gain, or anything else. Bu the missed period thing freaks me out, and the ache just stresses me out more.

I took Yasmin for about 2 years, and didn't seem to have any side effects at all. I never gained weight, lost hair, felt nauseous, or anything. Then on Halloween 2004, I suffered a moderate brain hemorrhage. I was 21 years old, and very healthy with no prior health conditions. The doctor said he didn't know the cause, I had several tests done, there were no signs of aneurysms (I am not sure of the spelling there) or any AV malformations. He said it could possibly be the birth control, but he can't be sure. I was immediately taken off of the pill and all other birth control pills because of it, and have had no problems since.

My doctor switched me from Ortho cyclen to Ogestrel 28 for suspected endometriosis. I've only been taking it for four days. The most annoying side effects thus far have been the bloated, nauseous feeling, which is similar to what I experienced when I started on Ortho cyclen 12 years ago, though I can't recall if it was quite as intense as what I've been experiencing with Orgestrel.

This was the first BC I was given. I tried it for nearly 3 months.
My periods were lighter and cramping less, but thats where the benefits end.

I had MAJOR constipation. I didn't go to the bathroom for 7 days at one point. I even took laxatives. I went off the pill and the next day things were normal.

I was as emotionally upset as usual. Sad, confused, unhappy, withdrawn.

I was always nauseous. When I woke up, before bed, after I ate, in the car.

I lost my sex drive completely. I wanted to want sex, I just didn't. Sex began to hurt a lot. I went off the pill after 3 months but have not regained my sex drive. I'm unsure if trying another pill will remedy this or make things worse. I wish it would come and I wish I never tried the pill.

I am 21 years old and I have been on Loestrin 24 since June 2nd. I'm about half-way through my second pack. I used to take Kariva which had a lot of negative side effects (headaches, weight gain, couldn't wear contacts, longer periods). Fortunately, I haven't had many of the bad side effects with Loestrin 24 that most women have been describing. My first period on Loestrin 24 came a little late but when it eventually came it was quite light and only lasted about 3 days. I also haven't experienced ANY spotting which is good. I have been a little nauseous and I threw up once which I can only assume was from the pill. I've had some trouble sleeping and some weird dreams but I usually do anyway so its not too bothersome. My only major issue is acne. It seems like in the last couple weeks it has gotten a lot worse, even worse than when I wasn't on any type of pill. I noticed a lot of women saying that their acne got worse. I was just wondering if it will eventually get better? I may have to talk to my doctor because it’s getting bad (I notice at least 1 new pimple a day). I've always struggled with acne so if it continues to get worse I'm totally going to stop taking this pill. Any suggestions or feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Well, I had Mirena put in in March and the insertion was fine, I had to go back to get the strings cut because my husband was being "poked", but I felt fine UNTIL a month or so ago, I feel dizzy almost to the point of blacking out, nauseous, but not actually throwing up, and very tired, now i do have a 6mo old and a 3 yr old, but they both sleep through the night, and so do I, but i'm just exhausted all the time now. Also, I can't seem to control my emotions, my poor husband gets the brunt of it. I have an appointment with the doc to discuss my options. Hopefully I can get it removed and back on the patch which worked good for me. I wanted Mirena because I like the idea of no periods, which IS really cool. But the exhaustion and nausea just arent worth it if I can't be a good mom and wife.

In march Of .09 I had the mirena Inserted, It hurt Like nothing I have experienced. "I had a c-section when My daughter was born", I loved it I had some cramping some nausea here and their right around when i was suppose to start my period. This past month I started to feel nauseous and had a feeling like I might be and pregnant, i went to go get a home pregnancy test and it cam out positive. Later that week I went swimming with my daughter came home and started to experience some heavy cramping that wrapped around my back, I was determined to go to the er and have it removed and get tested to make sure that I'm am are Im not. the test came back negative and the doctor refused to take it out... errr.
So in the next week are 2 my symptoms get worse to the point were I can not bare it, I was constantly nauseous and had horrible cramping. and my period wasn't due for some time, I even noticed My blood pressure rising when i was in a confrontation with another lady. and had to walk away; Just this Monday I had it removed which I didn't hurt when the doc pulled it. humm.
I felt the symptoms almost vanished until a couple of days later when I started to feel nauseous again, Hopefully I will feel a 100% percent better here soon. I do not recommend the mirena for anyone

I just started taking Yaz about a week ago. So far I have noticed both good and bad things about this pill.
The good side to Yaz is: It got rid of my cramps & made my period soo much lighter, I couldn't believe it. You know how your period is usually heavy the first few days, then gets lighter towards the end? Well the entire time it felt very light like how it normally would feel the LAST day of my period.

The down side to Yaz: My mother & boyfriend have both noticed that I am a bit more snappy/moody since I started taking it, and I am very tired and feel fatigued in the morning- I've been having a hard time getting out of bed! Also, sometimes before bed I feel a little nauseous.

As for now, I am going to continue taking Yaz, UNLESS my mood swings get worse or I experience any other side effects.
I am 19 years old by the way, if that helps.

ive had mirena since march 09 after it got inserted i bled for 3 weeks then spotted for another then bleed again for another couple weeks until last week and now this week ive been feeling super nauseous everyday has anyone had this happen im worried that i may be pregnant b/c my bf used to say he could feel the mirena when we have sex be the other day when we did he said he didn't feel it is that normal and has anyone had similar things happen im so scared im pregnant and need some reassurance!

I just got a root canal because my tooth is "dying" and it was causing severe pain throughout the whole right side of my face, head, and ear. I asked the Ortho not to give me Percocet or Vicodin because I get nauseous / puke profusely. I took an Ultracet and luckily I only felt a twinge of nausea... just on the brink of nauseous but I could live with it. It also made me feel really dopey and high. I liked the feeling because I had been days of severe pain and finally it was gone after the numbing from the dentist and the Ultracet... However, when I took one just before bed (4 hrs after 1st dose) I did get nauseous. I also felt twitchy and restless. My mom takes Ultram religiously for her headaches, and takes two at a time... I don't know how she does it. She is dependent on them. I went to work today and took one because my face started pulsing again. It was interesting because I didn't get nauseous and I felt more productive. I did get dopey for about 45 minutes but it went away and the pain stayed gone well after that. So in my short experience with this drug, I've noticed the side effects aren't as bad during the day (maybe because I'm moving around more and not concentrating on them). I've also noticed that if taken during the day I got a little bit of an energy burst after the 45 minute dopey phase passed. Now it's night time again and my face hurts again, so instead of taking a full pill, I broke it in half (Verified with pharmacist that it's okay), and took an 800mg ibuprofen. Hopefully, I won't get sick and I'll sleep through the night without a pounding face alarm clock.

I'm at the end of my 2nd pack of Yasmin and I'm having trouble figuring out these side-effects. My acne is getting slightly better and I didn't get any cramps like I did when I was on tricyclen low. But I've gained probably about 10 pounds and I feel full/bloated all the time. I've never in my life had trouble with weight until I started the pill. I feel like I'm never hungry anymore, yet I still eat like a beast (I don't really know if this is important but I also burp all the time now which is rare for me, I used to have trouble even if I tried to. I know this is something stupid to mention). Second, I've been noticing my mood is not like it used to be. I have moments where I'm fine but then all of a sudden I feel really down and I've had random moments where I want to cry for no real reason. But I sometimes wonder if it's the effect of the pill or maybe I'm bummed out about the less fortunate things happening in my life. My weight gain isn't making things better for the mood. A lot of times I'm sad and I don't really understand why and no matter what I do to try to pick myself up there's a slump. Please help me I can't figure out if it's just me or the pill might have something to do with it.

Have been on simvastatin on and off for 15 months now. First of all 10mg came off for a while - cholesterol level up to 7.6 again so was put on 40mg. Very nauseous and came off the 40mg. Went back on to 10mg in Nov. and since then no nausea at all. At present I am getting terrible pain when laying down in my right leg from my hip into my buttock right down to my foot. It is similar to cramp in leg but it lasts sometimes for a couple of hours. Cramp usually disappears in a few minutes but it is the same sort of sensation. Also needle-like pains in my hand and foot. Above symptoms only since going onto Simvastatin. Would be interested in any others have these symptoms too. Trouble is damned if you take them and damned if you dont. Current research does show however that there is no benefit to women over 60 taking these wretched pills - everybody reading this should try and get or borrow the book by Dr Malcolm Kendrick entitled The Great Cholesterol Con (Dundee UK GP) written in 2008 who also is of this opinion. I am not advising not to take Simvastatin but please do research and read this book and reach your own decisions.

I have to say that I have had the total opposite experience with Mirena. After several weeks of research and careful deliberation, I chose to have it inserted. The live journal website "iud divas" provided so much information, and mainly showed me that all women have different experiences. Sure the insertion was painful, but it was also brief. I took the rest of the day off work as a precaution. I was a little nauseous for a while and had some cramping and spotting. It has been over 3 weeks since my insertion, and I have nothing but positive things to say about Mirena. I feel great and it's wonderful not having to take a pill every day. Instead of cautioning about the dire consequences of using Mirena, I would advise women to bear in mind that every woman's body is different. I would also advise looking at the iud divas live journal so you can see that there are many many women who have had positive experiences with both Mirena and Paraguard.

My 17 year old son was diagnosed with MRSA after getting an injury on his knee from playing basketball.After the first does he had a loss of appetite, fatigue, nauseous and severe headache. By the third day he got a fever, chills, neck stiffness and a feeling of doom. We went to the ER because his blood had not been cultured and we were afraid of sepsis in the blood. The ER doctor said it was most likely viral and sent him home. The next night he had a fever of 103, sore throat, trouble swallowing, sun burnt look, swollen eyes and cracked swollen lips.The next day we went to the urgent care and they tested him for mono, strep and the flu...(all negative). He felt awful and was so tired and feverish. The next morning he woke up with a severe rash and itching all over his body and his skin looked like it was scalded. His blood culture came back negative for bacteria and his wound has healed. I have taken him off of this drug Bactrim. This is his first day. His rash is better and his fever was down for a little while. It is 101 tonight and he just feel so tired and achy. I know it will take time for this to get out of his system. Meanwhile he is missing school and is getting depressed because he feels like he will never get better. If someone told me that fever and chills were a side effect from this drug I would not have been so worried that he could die of a blood infection. Ask lots of questions or google this site before taking a new drug.

I already listed all my side effects on the 4th of Feb. I immediately called the doctor and set up an appointment to have it removed. I'm not waiting till my hair falls out before I get it out of me. The doctor said they couldn't remove it for another month so I decided I'd just wait patiently until I read someone's comment saying that you can EASILY remove it yourself! I went in the bathroom, washed my hands, squatted and reached up, found the strings and tugged gently. I'M FREE!!! YAY!!
My side effects were:
Nausea
Vision Loss (seeing spots, and blurriness, pressure behind eyes)
Back Pain
Knee and other joint pain
Headaches
Extreme Irritability (mood swings)
Lack of energy
Weight Gain
Bloating (very rounded belly)
Discharge with an odor
Dizziness
Abdominal pain
Chest pain
Pain in breasts
Loss of sex drive
Dehydration (so thirsty, but very dry lips and skin no matter how much I drink)
Water retention
Anxiety attacks
Ear infections
Sugar cravings
Sweating
I'll update you on whether things change (and how fast)! Fingers crossed, I'm so hopeful!
I have to say that within minutes of removing it I'm dizzy, lightheaded, nauseous and my head is suddenly killing me!

This website had made me sane!!! I have recently become a crazy woman searching side effects of birth control like it was my job, it has taken up my entire head!.. I started nuvaring four months ago (first form of birth control ever) to help control my horrible pms and very irregular period, and it helped that out, HOWEVER, I have recently decided I would prefer the pms over these awful, AWFUL symptoms. Although little spurts occurred here and there, this month is the absolute worst. I have managed to gain 12 lbs in under a month ...(keep in mind I am a work-out freak and have made sure to burn as many calories as I take in each day simply because I just can't stop gaining the weight!) I don't fit into any of my clothes and I just do not like the way I look. It is as if my body has just gotten wider and larger. I used to love my body and now I cant stand looking in the mirror everyday. My eating habits are awful....I try to starve myself for periods of time because I simply cannot help myself when I enter the kitchen. I feel like a bulimic girl, without the puking afterward. My binges are DISGUSTING, I'm actually ashamed. The worst symptom of all, though, are the mood swings. I cry at the drop of a hat every single night, I'm 20 years old away at college, and last night I cried because all I wanted was my "mommy." That's embarrassing. Not to mention my boyfriend thinks I am absolutely nuts because I have "changed." When you tell a severely hormonal woman she has "changed" you better expect a shoe or the nearest object to fly at you, which is exactly what I did. I CAN'T HELP IT! I also have been having negative thoughts about life as a whole lately and have even entered the realm of slight suicidal thoughts, or at least thinking my life was worthless. I've been through too much with my cycle to stop it now (even though I feel like ripping this thing out ASAP) and have 2 weeks left before I can take it out FOR GOOD! If anyone has any feedback they want to share to keep me sane through these last 2 weeks PLEASE PLEASE share! Also, does anybody know how long it will take for me to get my life back?! =(

My son who is just 17 has been on the drug for just a week and the very first day he was on it he experienced severe back pain. He was not able to stand up. It got worse, he felt as though he had to eat continuously or he would vomit, the more he ate the more nauseous he became. This is not somatic, because he had no idea that I had added a new medication to his regimen. He has ADD and a mild mood disorder. I have stopped the medication and will notify the doctor tomorrow. He was only on the medication for 4 days. I am a nurse practitioner and this medication is not worth the multitude of severe side effects for the diagnosis of mood stabilization.

I'm not posting anything new that anyone hasn't said- I just wanted to google my side effects because since taking Loestrin 24 I have all the pregnancy symptoms I had before with my 2 kids. I have been on this pill for about 3 months now, and took FIVE pregnancy tests already because I have NO period at all and I am PARANOID since I was always a heavy bleeder with periods. I went from bleeding for days on end, sometimes up to 10-14 days with headaches and everything. Now I have no period and all these awful side effects. I wake up feeling exhausted, I'm restless at night, having anxiety dreams and even feeling anxious during the day. My husband (and myself) cannot handle anymore of the severe mood swings for no reason. I am peeing all the time like I did when I was pregnant...I'm also nauseous and frequently have upset stomach...like I did when I was prego. the ONLY thing that has been a "relief" is not having periods, but if it means I have to deal with feeling bloated, nauseous, crampy, miserable, and anxious, then it's really not worth taking.

I'll be calling my GYN soon...glad I googled this pill and found all these similar comments because I certainly was not warned of these side effects.

I have been taking it for 3 days and have noticed that I feel weak, nauseous and sick after about half an hour. It definitely does stop the coughing though but I am never using it again.

hi there i have been on simvastatin about a year now and have felt so ill since taking them i am now due to have several blood test to see what they can find " as i suffer with nausea, pains in my legs and body /and terrible depression and i cant remember me feeling like this before i started taking these tablets i really don't feel like me no more / and i can easily sit down and cry because off feeling like i do / now i have been told to take double dose because my cholesterol is higher / i have spoke to others of these tablets and they have had same reaction so i have decided on my own thoughts to stop i will tell my doctor.and i am hoping i will get back to my old self i will try and keep my cholesterol in control and i think its well worth a try than to have all these side affects B.

My GP, (doctor) prescribed Niaspan Prolonged Release Nicotinic acid (Ph Eur) 8 days ago to lower bad cholesterol. It came in a starter pack 7x375mg - 7x500mg-7x750mg for three weeks to run consecutively, which I take in conjunction with Zimverstatin 40mg nightly. First 7 nights, no problem, last night started the second week dosage...and after taking the first 500mg tab, I got busy on my com for a while...as you do...then Bang! I began to burn up inside, sweat leapt out of me like a garden sprinkler, I went weak, nauseous, ran to the loo (Toilet) ran around the house in sheer panic as my heart raced so fast, it felt like one continuous beat, then I nearly collapsed. On passing the bathroom mirror I saw my palour had gone to a waxy-grey, then I instinctively took two 75mg aspirin, and in the end collapsed on the bed. I woke up about 20 minutes later and realized I was not in heaven as my room was still as untidy as it normally was...never mind. I am waiting for a call-bcak from my GP...there are things I need to know as I suffer with angina....thanks for reading this.

I am taking Septra for a sinus infection. I am consistently, ridiculously nauseous all day and all night since within two hours of my very first dose. Taking this medicine with lots of or little bits of food, milk, bread, soup, peppermint tea, ginger, etc. doesn't make a difference.
Food smells make me wretch. I can't even wash the dishes because of the leftovers. Even simple mention of some foods makes me gag.
I also am sick when the road curves too much ahead of me, I see spinning things, and moving my eyes too quickly.
I have never been this nauseous in my life. I find it disturbing.
Vomiting does not relieve the sensations. My vomit tastes very bitter.
I suspect the accompanying headache is from dehydration caused by the low food intake and diarrhea.
