I have been taking Yasmin for 1 week. Before taking Yasmin, my stress levels were normal, no anxiety, energy was normal, etc. Within days I began noticing a change in my breathing patterns. I felt as if I could not get enough air. I would continue to yawn in order to get a 'good breath'. I felt like I was taking more short breaths. There seemed to be a constant pressure on my chest. Let me stress, A PRESSURE, not pain. This seemed to occur at all times of the day regardless of whether I was moving, resting, etc. I went back to my OB/GYN only to be told that 'It was anxiety, and I worked myself up. It must be my school, etc." This was so frustrating. I was a little apprehensive about the pill but I know I did not create such extreme anxiety symptoms overnight. In my experience hyperventilation from anxiety builds over time. That is not the cause for me. Please remember your doctor doesn't know your body like you do. Most often they dismiss 'side effects' and say 'It couldn't possibly be the medicine'. I've read more stories of girls complaining of a similar symptom and the doctor telling them... you're having anxiety and they end up on more medication. That's awful. I have found numerous articles on SYNTHETIC PROGESTINS which is what is in Yasmin causing increased breathing of Hyperventilation. I know Yasmin is the cause of this. My doctor was wrong. Now the question is, continue it... or not? It's extremely uncomfortable..so I'm unsure. I wanted to post this so other girls experiencing this side effect would know that it IS the YASMIN!!

Thanks a lot to all of you people who share their experience with doxycycline. My dentist prescribed me doxycycline and 1 week later I started to feel bad just like some people described above I hade shortage of breath my legs and arms were shaking. I had anxiety and panic attack. The first time I experienced something like this I didn't know what was wrong with me. Normally I am healthy and very happy person. I am 27 years old go to the gim, I don't drink, I don't smoke. I have been in the hospital ER 4 times. They sad there is nothing wrong with me temperature is normal blood sample is normal AKG is normal. They gave me penicillin instead for the next 2 days I had even worse panic attacks. I stopped taking any antibiotics since then. The next day I felt much better. I had only some little panic attack. Today is my second day after taking antibiotic and I still feel some anxiety but not as bad as before. I would like to tell people who has similar side affects to avoid any sugar and bread in their diet this will significantly reduce anxiety and drink mint tea to relax It helps me a lot.
