I used to take Atenolol and had side effects. Unfortunately, all doctors know is to push drugs, instead alternatives. I am taking a natural product now with no side effects.

Thank you for posting, everyone. This is the 1st place where I found information on side effects and it has been really helpful, up to a point.
I have been experiencing what I think are side effects from the coil...I just don't know what to do- sometimes Im absolutely fine, but I have been getting PMT, and not just PRE-menstrally... Because of this and because I can't figure out what other contraceptives I can use, I am a bit in denial of my problems!Also, because when I went to the family planning, the nurse tried to talk me out of removing my coil, saying my problems were not caused by it :(
The side-effects that I think I have:
*Mood swings. Sometimes REALLY depressed, feelig worthless and fed up with life, other times very angry and aggressive. Sometimes absoultely fine. But very up and down and out of sorts.
*Acne. Very bad acne on my face and my back, besides this my skin just looks different-used to look really healthy but looks red and without its usual glow. I feel like I look really ill. Really gets me down.
*Insomnia. Ive not been that bad for getting to sleep, mostly. But at certain times of the month very restless. Mostly my dreams are just really vivid and imaginative, which is cool in a way, but not right-I used to feel like this when I was going through puberty-is that a time of heightened progesterone??
*Itchy skin. But I don't know if this is my imagination.
*Pains. I have weird pains in my legs, period pains that kind of wave down my legs and odd stabbing pains in my uterus and tubes.
I just don't know what my alternatives are. As a sexually active woman who does'nt want to have children at the moment, as I am at uni, I feel like a second class citezen. I can't use condoms. Lets face it, they are'nt so good in the longterm. I have had the copper coil and the period pains used to make me faint and atually throw up with pain, so I got this. Hormones just don't agree with me...I think its too dodgy to use the withdrawl method or work out least fertile times on the calendar.
Does anyone know when the male injection is coming out???!! Or have another solution....?

Thank goodness for this site !
I am a 36 male living in Australia and was prescribed Advair(Seretide) 4 weeks ago to treat a asthma induced cough.
About a year ago I was diagnosed with high blood pressure and have scheduled visits to a cardiologist, the next one in a few weeks for an echocardiogram and follow up.
About 2 weeks after starting Advair I started having the following side effects:
Racing heart beart, dizziness & feeling faint,waking up with tingling in my hands at night, inability to sleep at night, anxiety/ nervousness.
Further side effects developed over the last few weeks:
hoarse, need to swallow, extreme anxiety and feelimg panicky.
Initially I put the symptoms down to stress and concern over the impending cardiologist visits.
But the situation worsened to the extent that last week I felt extreme distress at going to work.
I went to my GP who put it down to stress and referred to a pyschologist.
This site has been such a relief - thanks

Ive been taking Doxy for 6 days now, after about 4 days I began to have a very itchy burning scrotum. Also have a very "warm" feeling in my chest. Can anyone else confirm the symptoms with the itchy genital region? It is quite red and painful. Lanacane seems to provide some temporary relief. Thanks for your input.
