Pinky symptoms and conditions

I have a question to any and all of you who have posted. I have similar symptoms to just about all of you minus any rash but mostly I have pain and some weakness in my right side particularly my shoulder and arm with some tremors in my pinky and ring finger and some pain and weakness in my right thigh. Insomnia and anxiety have also been a big part of the symptoms. Additionally when I take a hot shower my fingers twitch really bad then subside after about an hour...weird. My question is to some of you who have been going through this for some time is does this subside or even better go away over time? I have been off this stuff for just about a month now and things seem to be a little better but it might be that I am just getting used to the symptoms. Thanks

I took Toprol for almost 2 years then in Aug generic came out Metoprolol and I switched over. I was taking 25mg. After a few weeks, I noticed numbness in my index finger and middle finger. Then it happened in other hand. Doc said I had tendinitis in one hand and slept wrong on the other...I was also depressed and having panic attacks. From the onset of taking Toprol my sleep was disturbed,but thought it was age related. Once I went on Metoprolol insomnia set in. Then my feet went cold and numb and my arms were so heavy and tingly and my joints hurt. My right shin hurt to touch as well. Vision was cloudy and had trouble adjusting to light changes. Finally it dawned on my that the changes occurred about the time I started the generic. I went back to doc and he pretty much told me I was crazy, prescribed Xanax and a session with a psychiatrist! He switched me back to Toprol and I felt no better then he switched me to
Atenolol with same result. By this time, my chest was on fire and I had extreme difficultly breathing. Called doc and he told me to stop cold turkey. I did and thought I was going to die one day. Throat closed up blood pressure soared. He stopped me on Nov 11 or 12th. I have been on nothing. Blood pressure is not leveled. When I first sit down it is like 140/93. If I wait a few minutes it goes down to 120/80 or a little lower. I was expecting to feel a lot better by this point in the game. I still have numbness in my pinky and ring finger and in my toes. If I take Advil it lessens to where it is not so bothersome. Anyone know how long this stuff takes to get out of your system? I am shopping for a new doc since mine know things I am a hypo. I am a 39 yr old female with no other health issues. Was originally put on for stress related palps.

I haave been on lisinopril for 3.5 yrs. I have mostly OK with it. But I do have the dry cough-I haven't slept the whole night in all that time. I also have the numbness in my pinky--but a Orthopeadic Dr said I have Cubital tunnel syndrome which is why it does that. I am dizzy once in a while.
Bur lately I have vibrating "floaters" in my eyes if I do anything strenous.

My husband is 24 and has been on Advair for about a month now since he started using it he has experienced horrible headaches,worse asthma symptoms then ever before,constant mucus buildup,severe stomach cramps,chest pains,cramps like a tightening sensation in his pinky,not able to sleep,tired all the time,bad mood swings,and worst of all he used to have 20/20 vision but within the last 2 weeks had to see an eye doctor for blurred vision now he has glasses.When he asked his doctor about side effects this drug may have he was told by the doctor none at all is that legal for your doctor to lie to you?THIS DRUG HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE PLEASE PLEASE FOR YOUR SAKE AND YOUR LOVED ONES SAKE DO NOT TAKE THIS CRAP!!! If anyone knows if his eye sight will get better please post your experience and let us know.THIS MEDICATION IS DEATH IN A DISK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My husband has been on Advair for about 1 month now and he is 24 years old. He has been experiencing worse asthma attcks then ever with constant mucus. Chest pain and pain in his pinky,unable to sleep at night at all. His eye sight was perfect but rescently he had to see an eye doctor for bluriness they perscribed him glasses.Will his eye sight stay blurry for good does anyone know?How can they give this crap out to people without warning them first about side effects?My husband even asked his doctor about side effects before taking it and the liar told him there are none. What kind of world has this become when Doctors can perscribe death in a disk? DO NOT TAKE IT EVER I URGE EVERYONE PLEASE FOR YOUR SAKE AND THE SAKE OF YOUR LOVED ONES.

I am 49 years old and have suffered from asthma since I turned 21. I started taking Advair 100/50 in 2000 and have not had an episode since. I have also gained about 50 pounds, lost whatever sleep pattern I had. I find I am pretty emotional but am not sure it can attributed to Advair. I do experience tingling in my hands (pinky and ringfinger only) and am given to bouts of depression and the blues. Last November I tried to switch to Singulair but since I already was developing a cold/congestion it was very ill timed. Had to switch back to Advair after 3 weeks and take some prednisone for a week.
What have you all replaced Advair with when you stopped taking it? I'd really like to know what the alternatives are. Thank you!

Woke up at 4:30 on Tuesday morning... can't remember if I woke up before or after my cat was coughing and puking up a large piece of folded up packing tape.. But then I noticed my right side of my chest hurt when I tried to take a deep breath. It's in my lower right chest, behind my ribs, and lower than my right breast. I just took my nuva ring out a at 4:45, and maybe it's just a placebo effect, but my chest felt a little better right away.

I put the nuva ring in on Thursday, June 28th, and have been so sleepy since that first night that I've felt compelled to take a nap every day, whether I wanted to or not.

Woke up Sunday night with an itchy eye, which I rubbed, then fell right back asleep. A couple of hours later Hannah (my 3 year old) woke me up because she'd peed in her bed, and after cleaning her and her bed up and getting her back to sleep, I went to the bathroom to pee, and when I looked in the mirror, my left eye was extremely swollen. It watered a lot, and the eyeball looked slightly red, but it didn't itch. I read about swollen eyes online and fell back asleep with my laptop on my lap at about 5:30 am. On Monday my eye improved over the course of the day and now it is about 95% back to normal.

On Saturday Hannah and I stayed over at our friends' house on the beach, and I woke up around 5:30 AM and noticed that: A.) The birds outside were chirping and making a ton of noise, and B.) On both of my hands, my pinky and ring fingers felt like they'd fallen asleep. I wondered if I slept on them in a funny way, and wiggled them and kept changing positions for about half an hour before they regained good circulation and I fell asleep again.

I don't remember if I woke up Friday night or had any health issues on Friday.

On Thursday, the day I put in the Nuva Ring, I had a terrible headache that was barely managed with advil and acetominophen. I had a headache the day before that was less severe, so I assumed the two were related. That night I fell asleep sort of involuntarily at about 10:30 pm, which is very early for me.

I normally sleep through the night without waking every night that Hannah doesn't wake me up, but not since I put in the nuva ring.

I am feeling quite a bit better now at 5:10 am on Tuesday, and will lay down again and try to sleep.

I have been on Wellbutrin for two weeks. About four days ago I began having joint pain and swelling in just my left hand, middle and ring finger knuckles. It is swollen and getting worse, not better. Has anyone experienced joint pain in just a specific area and not all over with Wellbutrin?

I was on yasmin for about a year and a half. On June 15, 2005 when I was 18, I suffered a massive brainstem stroke. It almost took my life. Getting pregnant is something I was trying to avoid but dont be greedy. Birth control can be extremely dangerous for a few people, and by the way, no I did not smoke.

I received a kenalog injection to the right side of my chin for acne around the first week of August 2006. They wanted to
inject two of my pimples, fortunately I refused. Two weeks later I noticed discoloration, then the indention. Thank God it was small, about the size of the tip of my pinky. My GP sent me to a dermatologist who stated that it would go away but would take several months, maybe a year. I was skeptical and scared. It was Nov 2006 before I noticed any changes. Now, today, I can barely see an indention and the discoloration is completely gone. From looking at this site, I've concluded that I was definitely lucky.

i was on advair for about 4 months, i too experienced many of the side effects mentioned.

i had hoarsenss, thrush, sores on my gums and tongue.
my body i experienced hip pain and immobility, arthritis in pinky. i am very active in sports, i noticed muscle weakness in my abdomen, i also noticed i couldn;t get ripped like i used to while on advair, and a sagginess and roundness to my face. also experienced back pain/ache due to the advair. i noticed i tended to get injured much more quickly. i felt i constantly had to exercise to maintain my strength.

also frequent urination and slow urination, dribble etc.

then i tried serevent and flovent, almost all the same symptoms, got off of that

also had sinus problems, , when i got off advair, it's been around 4-5 months the side effects are all gone.

right now , i'm not on any meds except albuterol inhaler, it's been tough, but i am experimenting with other alternatives.

I am a long time year round allergy suffered. Singulair eliminated all of my nasal symtoms better than any histamine blocker but appears to give me numbness in the pinky of my left hand. I'm quite sure it is the singulair because I stopped taking it twice and each time the numbness was eliminated. It may be an unusual reaction. Would anyone know how this reaction is caused?
