Sunday afternoon symptoms and conditions

I started Loestrin 24 Fe 3 months ago. I'm on my 3rd pack 2nd wk. Last Saturday, I forgot to take the pill, which I normally take it around 9pm every night. Next day, which was Sunday afternoon, I was spotting, so I took the pill right the way and I also took the pill at normal time. As of today (Wednesday), I’m still bleeding like I’m having my period. Is this normally? Anyone has this experience before?

Took this medication with hydrochlorothiazide due to high blood pressure. Two weeks ago I took a nap Friday evening after school (I teach school from 8 to 4:30), and woke up with half my face and tongue swollen. I thought it must have been a food allergy.
This Friday, while at the gym, my tongue started swelling on one side. By the time I got home, my neck was swelling on that side. I called the doctor and got a dose pack of prednisone and went and picked it up. I took the first 6 pills at 8:30. 2 hours later the other side of my tongue was 3-4 inches thick and my neck was swelling to the point it was equal to or outside my head. I took another 4 pills and a benadryl.
I almost went to the hospital, but held out because of the out of pocket expense with my insurance. Finally, about 2 the swelling of my tongue subsided. I tried to lie down around 4 a.m., but couldn't breath due to swelling in throat. Had to sit up all night.
Now, Sunday afternoon, I still have some swelling in my throat. I was never warned that such side effects were possible. I wonder how many people have been effected and if the FDA has any idea of the numbers.
swelling of tongue,
swelling of neck,
trouble breathing,
trouble swallowing.
I had been on this medicine for 3 months. I'll never take another blood pressure medicine. And, I have to find a new doctor that I trust.

Incredibly painful gas. I only took 2 pills, one on Friday, woke up gassy but didn't connect the two, had an unpleasant trip to the washroom. I took another dose on Saturday and woke up with more gas Sunday morning. by Sunday afternoon i was in a lot of pain shooting through my abdomen, in my back and chest. it is now Tuesday and i missed work Monday and today because the only way i can relieve the pain is by laying down. when i wake up in the morning i'm fine and then it just gets worse by the minute. i can be up for a bit but then i need to lie down again. it feels like trapped gas. i have taken pepto bismol and oval and eaten prunes and nothing seems to help. also, i haven't had a bowel movement since Saturday and i don't feel like i need to, though i'm usually like clockwork, every morning after my coffee.
i called the pharmacy and they were of little help, i'm going to try a laxative today just to see if that helps move stuff if it's stuck, who knows.

First period after quitting?

Stop reading if you don't wanna be grossed out. ;-)

After being off the pill for almost 7 weeks I got some kind of period. My stomach was hurting for almost a week before and I had a little ache down there too, and a backache. I got a decent amount of bleeding for about 24 hours but then it went away? So I only bled between Sunday afternoon thru Monday afternoon. Is that really normal? Shouldn't the period have lasted 3-5 days to be an actual period? I used to have 3-5 days before I was on the pill.

I'd love to hear from the rest of you cuz now I'm worried even though I did get some kind of period.

My 15 month old son was just put on this Friday, four days ago. He had been on Zyrtec since he was five months old and his allergies had recently gotten worse along with a percistant cough. As the weekend went on he became more and more angry and fidgety. Sunday afternoon, after his nap he came running down the hall screaming and crying (this nap is usually 1 1/2 hours long and he had only been asleep for 30 to 45 minutes when this happened). He was very upset for about 20 minutes. He is normally a very happy, fun loving child. Later that afternoon he didn't get his way and took it out on me. He began to kick and scream(at the top of his lungs) , throwing his head back, and then hitting me. Everyone that was with us have been around him from day one and they all said how he wasn't himself and had never seen him act this way. Now, this morning on our drive into town to go to daycare he normally is talking the whole way (45 minutes) but this morning he was just staring off out the window and didn't want to talk or "have a conversation" with me. I knew something wasn't right and had already had it in my head he wasn't getting another dose of this. I found this site and some of the little things began to jump out at me and I know for sure we aren't going to take this again. I just hope and pray that this hasn't caused any lasting side effects, again he has only been on it for 4 days. After reading all of this I have called the daycare to check and the doctor, who hasn't called me back yet. Going to see his ENT tomorrow and we will be having a long conversation about it all. His ped. is the doctor who put him on it. She is trying to try everything before he is put on a nebulizer.

Another side effect named on the Singulair web site is ear infections. This med. should have never been given to my son who has already had one round of tubes because of ear infections. The tubes have already fallen out and within a week he had an ear infection.

Starting taking Avelox last Thursday (May 29) after having a sinus infection/pneumonia. Sunday afternoon I was watching "one flew over the cuckoo's nest. I started getting really paranoid that i was gonna loose my mind and started a panic attack and plenty of anxiety. Monday I was hanging out with my amazing girlfriend and started getting really anxious and depressed over basically nothing. Today is Wednesday and I'm really dizzy and anxious as I write this. F#$% this medicine, I'm calling my doc tomorrow to take something else... You're not going crazy, it's just the avelox. PS - Good site to find :)

I am at the end of my first pack of pills, YAZ.

I have a condition called Chiari and I also suffer from hormonal migraines. I started getting migraines on Thursday before I was to start my period on Sunday.

The difference is, not only did I get my typical migraines, I also became extremely nauseous. I was violently ill on Thursday night after taking my migraine pills (a common, weekly occurrence). I made it to work on Friday but ended up going straight home at 5pm.

I spent the entire weekend on my couch, with a cold wet washcloth on my face. I used a spray bottle to wet my hair to keep my head cool. The nausea never went away until I actually started Sunday afternoon.

Dryness, itching, burning, no sex drive at all! I thought I had some crazy disease. I searched WebMD about a thousand times trying to find out what I had. The thought of sex made me irritated. Sometimes I felt so guilty for being a bad wife and bitchy mother. It felt like razor blades were scratching every time I wiped down there. I have only been on the NR for about 4 months. The last two months every day the itching and burning was getting worse and I was getting angry when my husband would want to have sex (we were only having sex like every 10 days to two weeks maybe and it was just for him). I was just about to call the Dr. on Monday morning when I found this web site Sunday evening. It was God sent for sure. I took the ring out Sunday afternoon and with in hours there was a difference. My husband even committed on it Sunday night that I was in a better mood and the itching has almost stopped. By Monday morning I felt better and I sure was in a better mood towards my kids. Monday evening my husband again said I was in such a better mood and the burning was gone. I could wipe again instead of pat. I still did not want to have sex (I think more because I am still sore down there), but I was not disgusted like I had been.
Not sure what I am going to do for BC. I think my husband would rather wear a condom then have me back on the ring.

I had a hysterectomy June 14, on June 21 I had a bladder infection and my doctor put me on Levaquin. That was a Wednesday, by Sunday afternoon I could barely walk! I thought I had just did to much and strained my back. Monday morning I woke up with hives on my hands and feet. I had eaten peanuts the night before and thought that I must have developed an allergy to them. Tuesday morning I still have the hives, I can barely get up off the chair and I am so weak I can't support my own body to stand. I am seeing my doctor tomorrow....I wish I had came across this web site earlier!
