Roomate symptoms and conditions

I was on the pill, Mircette, for about five months. I decided to stop taking it and try nuvaring because I had a roommate who loved it. I'm on birth control because I had mood swings with pms that noone would stay around me. I had my period off of birth control two weeks ago. Started Sunday the 8th. Usually they were three days at the most. This one went all the way to the 13th. I put my first nuvaring in Saturday night around 12am on the 14th. For some reason I couldn't get situated. It burned and I could feel it and just wasn't comfortable. I dealt with it til about Monday morning when I took it out and decided it wasn't right for me. I've been kinda dizzy, cry a lot, I'm shaky and tired. My boyfriend and I haven't had sex in about seven weeks and I took a pregnancy test the day before I started my actual period two weeks ago and it was negative. But I woke up today, the 23rd and I had lite bleeding and backaches. I know its normal coming off of birth control, but seeing as how I didn't have it in very long is this still normal? Has anyone else experienced this? I called my gyno and she said it was probably just breathrough bleeding but I'm worried.

headache,nauseous,leg cramps, pain in my left breast, around heart...now, around each period my breasts hurt, and i have terrible stomach ache, like cramps, which i never had before..i also started having acne on my back and shoulders...but the worst thing is, my room-mate, she was using Yasmin for 9months, died a week ago. she wasn't sick at all.she actually did have a few headaches, and weird stomach ache, but we didn't seem to connect the two...

I was put on Effexor because of anxiety and panic attacks, and all I have to say is that this medication increased more so than it alleviated any of those symptoms. I was not even feeling very anxious at the time of my taking the first (37.5 mg) dose.

I took the capsule around 2 in the afternoon and by 4pm I had a severe headache. This was followed by nausea and strange thoughts. When I returned home that evening (last night) around 7pm I called my roommate a profane word (way out of character) and made her cry. We resolved the conflict, and I went to bed without any discomfort.

But I awoke around 3 am feeling strange sensations coursing through my body, anxiety, strange thoughts (again), and a sense of "overheating." I wanted to get up but I felt like I could not will myself to act, I felt as though I was in an "out of body" state. My paranoia and anxiety reached an apex at which I decided that I must not be "okay," and called my mother.

My mother assured me that I am okay and just that I must be on "too much stimulant, call the doctor tomorrow." I truly felt like I was having an awful hallucinogenic nightmare. I wanted someone to tell me that I would be okay because at certain points I had a fear that maybe I was having an allergic reaction to the stuff and might die.

Had I not researched online boards beforehand I would have called "911" no questions asked at the first onset of my symptoms last night. One of the scariest things I have been through in awhile. Still don't feel quite right, but the feeling is not as intense.

My husband and I found out he had Meatastic prostate cancer 13 months ago..We went to the doctor because his lymph glands were hudge.. He has been on the Lupron injections ever since.. He had really bad hot flashes for the 1st few months but that has past, but now he is very moody and angry for no reason.. He yells and gets angry over the littlest things i think he is going crazy and he is driving me nuts, he has no desire for me and is rude and acts like he don't even like me sometimes.. it is torture to me..He has depression he doesn't enjoy anything like he use to.. whenever we go try to have fun he gets all stressed and makes the fun turn into miserable..He acts as if he has no problems..He has some big rashes on his legs and crack and I am pretty sure it is from the Lupron shot also.. he has a little aches and pains. Very tired all the time..just about a week ago we found out the Lupron shot is not working very well anymore, his psa level went up to a 15..I am thankful for the shot because i know it has saved him some time to be here.. I love him so much, but the way he is now has caused me to feel like he is a grouchy roommate on his period 24/7.. There is other things like casodex to take but i heard it does not work as well as the Lupron..Hopefully one of these days they can find something that works even better then Lupron without the side affects..The lupron Shot has helped many people live longer, but what about the quality of life he is miserable but I am sure he rather be alive and miserable.. Good luck to everyone with the Lupron shot, it is a trying time when they or you go through these changes and do not understand why you feel negative and unhappy..

My roomate is taking 2 (10 mg) doses per day. He is experiencing tiredness and a slow heart rate. I haven't seen these systems as typical. Has anyone else?

After having severe Diareha for two days I was Taken to the ER by my roomate. I had a temp of 103.8 and was severly dehydrated. I was admitted, they gave me electrolytes,potassium and Levaquin IV. Within 30 minutes I became nausious(SP?). Over the next few hours I began to swell and my hands began to tingle. Even though I complained each time a nurse or Dr came to my room of pain and numbness in my hands they continued to give me the Levaquin. By the third day I had turned beet red and my feet were also numb. I refused to let them take my blood pressure for fear of my fingertips exploding when the cuff was tightened. A different Dr switched me to Rocphen. But the swelling and numbness persisted. That was the middle of May and to this day I have no feeling in my index,middle or ring fingers on both hands. I have had an EMG that showed "no response" of the nerve.... DO NOT TAKE THIS DRUG OR ALLOW ANYONE TO ADMINISTER IT TO YOU! Hell I could have come out of the severe dehydration with just electrolytes and no antibiotics. At least I would still have feelings in my hands.

Been on 1st shot for 1 week for endo. My side effekts are, Sleeping NON STOP am not satisfied with less than 13 at a time. Severe depression/mood swings. Thoughts of suicide, Don't trust myself alone for periods of time. Cry for no reason, yell for no reason. Annoyed by everything. Don't want my boyfriend or roomate near me. More pain than before, HORRIBLE. Getting up to take a shower takes enormous ammounts of effort... Will not go in for my next 3 month shot. NO WAY

I began taking Yasmin 4 months ago and it has been hell!!! It took me a couple months to realize the connection (my roomate went on Yasmin at the same time and I thought SHE was nuts saying it made her sick!). When I first start taking a pack each month I'm extremely nauseated and it lasts for about a week. Then, I feel good for about a week. However, the third week is when I turn into a raging b*@ch! I have uncontrollable mood swings, cry over nothing, and snap at people for no reason. The worst thing about that is I know I'm flipping out over nothing! I've lost a bit of weight since going on Yasmin but I attribute that to the fact that I'm also eating healthier. I used to be on ortho tricyclen and I loved it except for the weight gain (130-165 in about 2 months) but I'm thinking of going back to it anyways (i'd rather be fat and happy)!!! I thought I was crazy thinking Yasmin was the reason I was moody and felt like throwing up but after reading all of your posts I feel better knowing I'm not alone! Good luck to all of you!
