Positive feedback symptoms and conditions

I see there are 2,150 postings on this website for Lisinopril side effects. Out of the 2 pages of postings I have read I have only seen 2 post that gave positive feedback regarding this drug. I am scared to read anymore postings this is sickening me more and more to know that peoples lives are being altered in such a way.THIS DRUG IS AWFULLLLL!! IT IS RUINING PEOPLES LIVES! Something needs to be done about this.The pharmaceutical companies are making billions of dollars off this drug and it's making people sicker than they were before they started taking this.I wish I would have known of this site before I started taking this drug now I have things going on with me that may be irreversible. I stopped taking Lisinopril 1 1/2 months ago and am still having awful complications.This drug isn't just affecting pregnant women and infants, it's affecting thousands of people.While I love children and am very sympathetic my life along with everyone else on this site and everywhere else in the worlds life is beneficial. I mean a lot to my loved ones and so do all of you, with that being said something needs to be done. This drug needs to be reported to the FDA we need to ban together and do something does someone have to DIE for something to be done about this drug?! Until something is done other people will be affected by this drug and maybe by the time they read these post it will be too late for them.

I've noticed many of the recent posts for Loestrin have been negative ones. Many are saying don't ever take this pill and that it's bad.
I'm speaking from my experience on this pill. I've been on it for almost 2 years now and have had nothing but a positive reaction to it. In my previous post, I mentioned that I have been on all kinds of bc pills that didn't work for me and it's been over 10 years since taking any kind of bc pill.
I started taking Loestrin in Aug 07 to regulate my period and for my adult acne issues. The first 3 months, I noticed my breast got bigger (a positive for me), my skin cleared up and my periods were lighter and shorter. I do experience PMS right before my period but it's not severe and mild cramping; it's nothing I can't handle.
Also, in order for your body to get use to any bc pill, you have to give it 3 months (according to my doctor).
I know 2 other woman who have been on this pill for over a year now and they have positive feedback about it.
I understand that this pill is NOT for everybody. But I have had a great experience being on it. I recommend this bc pill to any woman out there who is considering taking Loestrin. Try it out for yourself and give your body some time to adjust to it.

I've played the birth control pill game and tried many different bc pills in my younger days. I tried Nordette, Ortho-cyclen, Ortho-tri-cylcen and Mircette. None of them worked well with me so I stopped taking bc pills all together.
It's been almost 10 yrs since I've taken bc pills and I started taking Loestrin 24 Fe about 2 years ago to regulate my period and for my adult acne issues. I have been on it ever since. After the first pack, I noticed my breast grew bigger (which is a plus for me). After the second pack, my skin cleared dramatically and after the third pack my periods became lighter and only lasted 3 days. I do experience PMS a week before my period but nothing I can't handle and it's not severe.
I have NOT experienced any bad mood swings, nausea or headaches. This bc pill is not for everybody BUT it has worked great for me and a few of my girlfriends are on it as well and have nothing but positive feedback to give.
I've been taking Loestrin 24 Fe for almost 2 yrs and since then, my boobs are bigger, my skin is clear and my periods are lighter and shorter. Overall, I give Loestrin 2 thumbs up!

This post is directed to anyone who has contacted me regarding a possible class action lawsuit, which I was trying to initiate, as stated in my Oct 17th, 2008 post.
After contacting as many as 10 law firms, from NY to San Francisco, I have virtually "thrown in the towel". In essence, what they are saying is, this will be too expensive to litigate. The pharmaceutical companies have "teams" of lawyers, and I believe they are reluctant to go up against them.
I find it diabolical that this drug Kenalog is causing so much suffering, some emotional, some esthetic and some, like myself, sheer physical pain...but nothing can be done about it.
For all of you who have emailed me and I was unable to return your ems, I apologize....but I have been waiting to hear something positive feedback to relay. Unfortunately, that was not the case. If anything does develop I have stored your information and will get back to you. I would hope you would do the same.

Hello-
I am here to share my story about topamax in hopes that others may read this and not have to go through what I did. I went on topamax for the prevention of migraine headaches. It worked great to prevent my headaches but gradually I could not talk, I stuttered severely, and I have memory and other cognition problems. At my doctors recommendation I stayed on the medicine for about 6 months because he assured me that the stuttering would go away. I was in such awful pain that I agreed with him. Needless to say that 6 months was not me. I couldn't talk and I couldn't think. Now when I think back on it, I wish I had just endured the pain. When I went off of the medication I still stuttered. It was not quite as severe but it was bad. It effected my work, my personal life, and daily menial tasks. I could no longer communicate. I was devastated. My doctor was puzzled and said that he had never heard of this before. So to make a long story short I went to a speech clinic, bought casa futura techs small talk device, and tried some anti-stutter meds. My speech now, 2 years later, is much improved thanks to the smalltalk but guess what,? I still stutter. Manageable and not very noticeable to others at times but my speech has not returned to pre-topamax status. I looked into sueing the drug company to bring awareness about this issue but did not get much positive feedback from attorneys. IF YOU ARE ON TOPAMAX AND ARE STUTTERING, STOP TAKING IT. IT MAY NOT GO AWAY WHEN YOU DISCONTINUE THE MEDICINE. It is not worth it. You cannot put a price on speech. I don't care what the physicians desk reference says, what your doctor says, what the corrupt drug companies say. I know my experience and it has been a catastropohic effect from topamax. Find a different med if you have speech problems! Please, for your own sake. Thanks for letting me share my story.

hello, patches here. Just to update my previous posting. Having stopped taking lisinopril over the past couple of weeks i now have no bloating and can wear rings again as my fingers are slimmer and my tummy is no longer solid bloat, the black tarry loose stools also have stopped but i still have bouts of urticaria from time to time. I wonder if anyone knows how long it takes to get this poison out of the system. Also i got chest pains from the amlodipine and the doctor conducted an ecg and blood test which both came back ok so it must have been the amlodipine. She has now given me candesartan but i have not started to take it yet as she said to wait until after the Christmas break in case i had a bad reaction when there were no doctors at the surgery. I can't believe i am the only one suffering this way and would like to hear from others and maybe someone can give me positive feedback. My blood pressure has gone up as i am not on any medication. Yesterday i felt very ill indeed - dizzy and panicky and later on had a bad rash on my arm and back of neck. today is slightly better so wonder, again, if i had a virus or if it is still the effects of the lisinopril. if anyone can advise i would be so grateful. many thanks.

I had Mirena inserted one week ago and there was some minimal cramping directly after the insertion but I have had nothing ever since and I am hoping it remains that way. I am so sorry to hear of all the negative side effects that Mirena is causing some women but I am interested in hearing some of the more positive feedback.

Hello everyone,

Just like all of you, I too googled this strange indentation in my left buttocks and found this site. I suspected when it first showed up that it may have something to do with a shot from my Dr. because the indentation was strangely in the same spot as my last shot. I have received several Kenalog shots over the past couple years for chest congestion and sinus related symptoms that typically drive me to calling my family practice doctor. Although he regularly administers Kenalog, I have had know reason to doubt his treatment as my history with him has been relatively good. However, he is not the one administering the shots, his young nurse it the one (less than a year out of school). Anyway, I too, like many of you am going to look into a class action lawsuit and/or my own legal counsel. If there is anyone out there who has gotten any positive feedback from a lawyer willing to take this on, please contact me for testimonial. This is not flattering and moreover, after reading the many previous entries, I am downright scared. Also, please advise is there is any known treatment to help reduce further reduction of tissue in this area. Thank you very much for reading and for the continued entries after this one.

I decided to get on birthcontrol because i had horrible cramps, acne probs and i would get really depressed before Id start my period, and I am also married now and no means ready to have a baby. I went to my doc and she prescribed me yasmin. Before i started takeing it i came along this site. I never wanted to get on birthcontrol before because I have always been afraid of the side effects, then after reading everyone else;s comment about the pill i got even more worried, but i decided to give it a shot anyways, that i could always just stop taking the pill.

Well its been almost two months and I dont really have any complaints yet. My periods are better and shorter. I barely have any cramps. Acne tho is about the same, but i also have heard it takes about 3 months for it to totally start clearing your skin. I have no weight gain or loss. My moods are about the same as they were before. Not any worse or any better.

the only thing i have notice is sometimes id get light cramps and backache...but they come and go...and its not that big of a deal to me because its not painful and its not all the time.

anyways, i thought it be nice to have some positive feedback

I'm on 240 mg a day and its no fun at all. I've built up a big tolerance to it, so much that even at this high of a dosage, I could fall asleep in no time at all. I've been at this dose fir like 4 years now. The good thing is that I have lost a lot of weight and managed to keep it off - going from a juniors size 11 to a 3 is the best thing thats happened though. Probably the only good thing. Otherwise, its made me different in many ways. I get to feeling that I just want to be left alone a lot so I can do my own thing, whatever that may be cause it varies. Some days I have a lot of energy, get lots done (cleaning, errands, some exercise classes, stuff like that), and other days I just feel like doing nothing. Mood swings are not uncommon for me, but I have always been that way I guess. Oh well, I guess if it works for you, take it. Its worked for me, but its about time I start to think about getting off of it as its effectiveness has run its course, at least I think it has. And I don't want to try anything else, its simply time to quit the ADD drug scene entirely. But like I said, if it works for you, then go for it. Just watch out cause it can build up on you fast like it did me, and you don't want to be taking as much as I do. (Its prescribed that way for me, BTW. I don't use it illegally).

Just started Lisinopril 10 millagrams. Doctor told me I might have a little tickle and a small cough sometimes. Has anyone had good results from this drug and I'm hoping 10 miligrams will produce little side effects. Any positive feedback? Is there a drug that doesn't cause tiredness? Oh one thing I noticed I have to take it with something in my stomach or I ger shaky.

I have been off Yasmin for almost three months now and still experience occasional anxiety, panic attacks, and a generalized feeling of depression at times. I didn't used to be like this and it all began just after I started taking Yasmin. It seems to be getting better as the weeks go on, but I am still not completely back to normal. I need positive feedback here. Please, for all of you who are back to their normal selves...how long did it take? Any suggestions to expedite the process?
