I was having shoulder pain and carpal tunnel syndrome.Went to see an otho Dr. who gave me kenalog,as I was walking out of his office,I started feeling Irritation in my throat,pain around my chest and difficult swallowing. I went back to the clinic but the dr. did not believe me.One month later I went to see another dr. for my hand and he gave another shut of kenalog on my wrist, one hour later i was having severed pain in my chest that I thought I was having a heart attack.I was rushed to ER and the dr. thought this must be your heart.After blood test -negative for heart problems and then gave me benadryl IV push.Both drs. said thet have never sen this type of reaction before that is why they thought it was something else.Two week s later my wrist area skin turns white{I AM BLACK BY THE WAY] What can I do to correct that and is there a way FDA canput a stop to this before somebody dies.

Mixed review. Although I have only been taking Yasmin for two weeks, I am pleased to say that it has yet to cause a migraine. My previous experience with the pill, otho-trycyclen lo made me suffer every morning.I also packed on a few pounds with that pill.
The Bad: This pill -(Yasmin) exhausts me.I'm so tired, that I had to convince myself for seven minutes to write this review. Constantly fatigued, and then depressed because I'm tired and don't want to have sex with my boyfriend-(this is blasphemous, my boyfriend is a stunner) It's a vicious cycle.
Do not take this pill with Advil. I went completely numb, and my B/P dropped to 81/67. I had to smoke to get it back up.
Definitely more moody. Overall, I feel very blah. Less attractive, which makes the libido take a nose dive.Vaginal itching. Everywhere itching, actually. Painful intercourse. Feel like a virgin again. Teared up here and there, sobbed over yonder.
Itching. Not quite sure if it's because I reside in San Francisco-where mold and allergens are plentiful, or if it's the pill.
Bloating? Let's see....Felt bloating in the abdominal region for the first week, now it's subsided. I really think the major flaw in this pill is that it drains you of all energy so then of course you feel ugly, depressed, less sexual and fat.
If I get a migraine, this pill is history. I think I'm gonna give it an earnest three month try.
Why am i at home writing this? Its Saturday Night! Oh yeah, I'm too tired.

12 years ago i had my son and was perscriped Otho, until 4-5 months ago my dr. switched me to Femcon FE. i noticed heavier periods but waited to see if i would adjust. 24 hours ago i was rushed to the ER w/ small potato size clots and a possible discussion of a transfusion. i am not writing to say everyone stop taking this but this was my experience and it wasn't a very good one. i am switch back to ortho, now that i have been hospitalized, anemic, and almost died..
