Ness symptoms and conditions

I have been taking Lisinopril for several years. I am 52 years old. I have had terrible scratchiness and coughing at night. As soon as I lay down it starts. I am sweating terribly for no reason. I worked with a personal trainer all last year but could not lose any weight. I have gained weighed and very large waist. After reading this column I feel that all of these side effects are coming from taking this pill. I am also taking Zocor so that is what I am looking up next. Have a dr. appt. this week and I am getting off all of this..... I am so excited to think that there is a reason why I couldn't lose any weight and only gain. My stomach also looks bloated quite a bit. Does the sweating relate to anyone else out there? I didn't hear too much on that from other writers. Please let me know!

Been on NR for 10 months. I had been off the pill for a few years after being on it for 15 years straight. The 1st few months on NR I noticed the mood swings from the insertion and removal of the ring, otherwise it was ok. I also lost about 9 pounds. But it has stated to creep up on me that over the last 6 months I felt like I had to really work hard to focus on anything. Very spacy and possibly depressed, critical of myself and others and a bit obsessive about certain things. This was nothing like the laid back person my friends knew before. Then I got a urniary tract infection and a few months later, after very painful sex, I got a yeast infection. Since the yeast infection a week ago I have gained 5 lbs. I hope it is bloating and will go away after this period. It feels is like my body is completly out of synch. I have felt extreamly tired over the past 6 months. It wasent a constant tiredness, but when it came on it was very difficult to stay awake, at work, in meetings etc. I also could not get out of bed sometimes, I had the achy bones and sorness that others have experenced. I kept looking at my nutrition intake to make sure I was getting what I needed and I should have been fine. I keept wondering what is wrong with me...... Then one day I wonderd if the extreme need to sleep, and the general feeling of not beeing fully conected to my surroundings could be this ring and the hormones. I am thinking of going off it to see if my life, sleep, etc. improves. I also wanted to mention that the NR website does not address if there are any issues with using a yeast medication over the counter or the pill. I have seen on other websites that both can cause issues. When I called NR they could only comment on the Monistat, Miconazole-That it will increase the level of hormones-and it is safe to use. Now scientifically if the levels go high enough it can cause spontanious ovulation......but they could not comment on that. They had no information on Diflucan- the pill for yeast infections or its possible affect. How is it possible they do not know if common medications can cause you to potentially become pregenant or have other side affects. I now truly question if this company has did the research in shlud to be on the market.

Anyone else have side effects that stayed with them several months after they quit???

I was on Celexa..and immediately after I took the meds..my vision would go blurry for a while..then it would go away until I took the next dose. B4 I knew it...my vision became blurry all the time. My dose was upped a bit..and the blurry'ness got worse......and it stayed with me all the time. .I've been off of Celexa for about 4 months and my vision is still blurry..not as bad..but not back to what it was b4.

Over 10 years ago I hurt my back being hit by a car. The Ortho gave me shots of corticosteriods every two weeks and this went on for 6 months. I went into premature menopause and was told, this caused bone loss as well"..I asked this new Ortho "to please not use steriods for this reason and because I now have premature thinning of my bones due to the misguided efforts of the 1st MD. Last week I had reinjured my back in 3 disks, I told the MD about all the side affects from before with injections, but he claimed this was different and new.. He claimed kenalog was "new and not what I had before". I had an intense headache immediately after the procedure and rapid heart beating ever since that hasn't gone away, and every time I lift my head I get the headache.It's been a week today and there is no positive change and still no call back to answer my worries. My BP is through the roof and I've never had high blood pressure in my life. My back still hurts me and he shot the tailbone area, after I asked him "NOT TO inject there because of previous nerve damage by MD #1 from 10 yrs. ago. NO MD will call me back and I'm worried I'll have a heart attack since this chest pain has increased and my PCP will not listen and neither will the Ortho who did the injection and he clearly lied about what it was or it's "new-ness".. anyone else have this painful heartbeat and bad headache after a shot, and when does the CFS headache go away??

I took one Levaquin taklet, which was prescribed for a urinary tract infection. Within the half hour of taking it, I lost conscientious ness as I pulled out of my space in a parking lost. I drove up on an 18 inch sign block wiith one wheel. I only felt a bump, and thought I had driven over a divider, so I tried several times to back off, until I smelled rubber, and decided I would have to get out and check the situation. As I started to get out of the car I gained conscientiousness, and looked back to see the sign right up by my window.

Here is a new reaction the ER doctor is attributing to my taking Lsinopril. I complaineed previously about weight gain, tired ness etc. but after my dose yesterday at 5:30 PM I was sitting embroidering and watching TV. At about 9:30 the left side of my tongue began to swell...it continued until I could not swallow, talking was nearly impossible. Checked on WebMD regarding sweeling of the tongue! Yikes, bad news. I have never been rushed into the ER so fast as I was at 10:30 last night. When I was stabilized the doc explained that you could take this drug as I had for 2 years or more and suddenly suffer this allergic reaction. Apparently it is a 1 in 1000 reaction BUT what if I was on the plane to Hawaii when it happened???? Doctor on board? Has anyone else heard of this? Stacie

it seems to me that EVERYONE on this site has had horrific problems with yasmin. I have been on it for a month and a half now, and my blood pressure is still low, as usual. And i havent noticed any severe problems related to it besides the frequent breast sore-ness. The doc said your breasts get atleast a cup size bigger, is this true? Any other side-effects associated with it, i have had a small problem eating large meals since ive been on it. I swear my stomach can only fit a few bites in it lately.

it makes me relaxed and its cozyness and drowsy ness makes it all worth taking.Take two together its the best!
if u would like to comment me on me remark email me !!

I was prescribed Singulair last year and after taking it thought this was the best medicine. My breathing (in winter) seemed much better as the inhaler would cause coughing (although it fixed asthma attacks)... I then stopped taking the drug. I started again due to chillier weather. I have now noticed that the side effects I had are consistent with what I have read. Backaches, mood swings, cramp ness in legs and weight gain. Fortunately I didn't have the nightmares (or didn't realize that I had taken Singulair when I did have bad dreams). I don't take the medicine daily, thank God, I guess. God bless you all and rid of the illness you have so you don't have to take this medicine.

Has anyone had a RASH reaction to Advair?? I began taking Advair a couple weeks ago and about 4-5 days after starting it, I started getting a rash on my upper legs. Small red bumps all over and white patchy-ness, and it itched. Since that was the only new thing that I had began using, I stopped the drug. I don't know how long Advair can stay in your system, but just yesterday, the same rash appeared on my upper arms. Not sure what to think???

My husband and I have both been prescribe Gauifen/P-EPHED for his congestion and for my ear tubes.
We both experience major drainage at first. It really cleared everything up.
We did however feel the side effects of headaches,light headed ness, rapid heart beats, and we could not sleep at all!
We had to cut the pills in half. The doctors should give people half the dosage if you ask me.
And I read a post about a doctor prescribing this for there child... I would never give this stuff to a kid!
Dont forget to drink lots of water like it says! Good Luck everyone.

I must say, I'm sure glad my friend found this discussion forum for me. I had severe contact dermatitis that had gotten infected. The doctor prescribed a topical steroid cream to me, as well as a 7 day supply of levaquin. I've noticed since I started taking levaquin last week, that I've been "jittery", and haven't been myself. I missed my pill yesterday, and felt even more strange than normal (withdrawl perhaps?) I took another pill this morning, and the shaking/slight light-headed-ness, and swelling are back. I'm taking myself off of levaquin starting immediately. Having only taken 5 500mg doses, will these effects wear off fairly quickly once I stop taking it? I don't have insurance, therefore I don't have any income right now (I work construction).

Thanks for anything.
