Symptoms nausea symptoms and conditions

i have been on vytorin 10/10 for 2 yrs.Last year i started having multiple symptoms.Nausea,loss of appetite,virtigo,and now anxiety issues.i have been to cardiologist,ear doctor, neurologist,eye doctor, and had many tests and they all come back normal. I have concluded it is the vytorin maybe?i stopped 3 weeks ago and haven't felt this good in months.my energy is up and im starting to feel like my old self again.my doctor wants me to go 3 months on no meds to see what happens.at that time id like to try omega 3 and red yeast ice? anybody had good results with any of these? im 51 and in great health other than cholesterol of 250.

I've been on it for about 2 months, the first month nothing really happened...but the last month its just been getting worse and worse. Light headed, sweaty hands, cold feet, tinglinging in the fingers, heart palpitations, etc...the worst are the heart palps, and light headedness (I feel like I might pass out right now!). I stopped taking it today, my last pill was yesterday morning, so hopefully the side effects will subside today or tomorrow.

for those who went off the drug, how long did it take for the side affects to disappear?

My experience with Yasmin was very similar to the one posted by "vpompon19" on October 26th 2007.

I took Yasmin for only a month. The day after I started, I had those symptoms:

- Nausea that last day and night
- Complete loss of appetite.
- Extreme fatigue
- Sleeping over 8 hours and still feeling tired
- Brain fog - inability to concentrate on anything
- Irritability
- Hypersensibility - I would cry for nothing...
- Feeling extremely nervous and nauseous when I had only half a green tea!
- Heartburn (I suffer from acid reflux but it was almost gone until I started Yasmin)
- Depression

When i stopped, I had the most painful period I've had for at least 8 years.
Plus I immediately started an urinary tract infection (which I never had before).

Two weeks later I experienced unbearable back pain. The doctor told me I had a herniated disk but I didn't force or had any trauma so I was sceptical. It turned out to be mononucleosis!

So thank you not Yasmin for having wasting at least 2 months of my life (so far), not mentioning the fear I had a more serious disease... No more birth control pill for me ever. I took another brand (Marvelon) for 7 years, then I stopped one year and my Irritable Bowel Syndrome disappeared. But my acne came back (even though I took Accutane when I was 15 - which I'm sure is the cause of my uncontrollable acid reflux).

I found out there are natural, safer and cheaper contraceptive methods. Don't wait until your doctor or the education system tell you about them because you'll be dead already.

I had Mirena inserted on the September 2007. Friday I had it removed. I am 35 and a mother of 5 children and suffer from heavy periods and severe anemia so Mirena was supposes to be the cure. My husband kept complaining that he could feel it while we were having sex so I had it clipped shorter. He still complained about it. I felt more tired and my periods there were only a slight improvement(bleeding more days but not as heavy after the first two days). The cramping the week prior and during the first couple of days of my period was unbearable. I have gained 10pounds and had a mid section belly roll that I have never had before. I always felt bloated and woke up with swollen fingers(the only other times I can recall feeling this way was during pregnancy).
After a few days of having it removed, my mid section feels less bloated but I have had Flu like symptoms. Nausea, a little vomiting, constant headache and diarrhea.
I will keep you all posted. Best wishes everyone.

This drug seriously needs to be pulled! its not worth ending a relationship over, i almost well was single because of it...gave me severe mood swings, depressed, made be feel not only sick but i couldnt eat anything, felt like someone was stomping on my chest, its all bull, and no one should even take this...pretty sad that every website i have been to about this drug, just says SYMPTOMS: Nausea, Headache, Dizziness, and Vomiting.

ADA needs to pull it because it does NOT do that job its supposed to. tha mood swings started off very mellow, then after 3-4 days of taking it, its coming to my attention it IS NOT me.....I was getting severely depressed when got into a fight wit my girlfriend. and i almost jumped out fo tha car at 70MPH because of this. Regardless of wut anyone says i am not right in tha head and wut not, i am so...just these so called Antibiotics messed wit my head. i erge everyone to boycott this use of this so called drug DOXYCYCLINE HYCLATE 100MG Caplets. If you wanna continue to be screwed wit, i then suggest you to stay on them for some tha symptoms are better for over half they are bad. My opinion....they are like a Anti-Depressant. If you take them and you are NOT depressed, moody, or have some kind of prob and when you start taking them you do have those probs, but if you do have those probs then you wont have tha bad probs is psychology and kinda hard to explain on wut i mean gonna have to figure it all out for your selfs. Because right now still coming clean from theese, i stopped taking them 2 days ago and still in my system a bit. so yeah i hope didn't bug anyone

I'm so glad I found this website! I have all the same symptoms, nausea, fatigue so severe I can't get out of bed. Stomach pain severe in the mornings after taking it. I feel stupid now that I have taken this pill for 7 days now with the same side effects and knew if was from brazillian snake venom. Thank you all for your input.

I am a healthy 55 year-old menopausal woman who started taking Vagifem in May 2007. By early July 2007, I experienced my first gallbladder attack. Both Ultrasound and CCK Gallbladder Ejection Fraction (70%) were normal, but I continued to experience gallbladder symptoms (nausea and right upper quadrant tenderness but no pain). My gastroenterologist and GI surgeon recommended gallbladder removal.

Neither my doctors nor I have linked Vagifem to these symptoms. I am thankful to have access to this website and learn that Vagifem may be the cause. My plan is to stop Vagifem altogether and note any improvement in my GI symptoms.

I have been on Yaz for a year, and the mood swings and crying spells started immediately for me. But I didn't attribute them to the pill because at the time I was going through some issues. However, about 9 months in I started to have migraines more and more frequently. Now I have them everyday and I have been put on Topamax and Imitrex for them. (Neither of which works really well, seeing as how I am home from work right now with a migraine that I have had for the past week that got really bad last night). I recently read up on how Yaz works and was horrified. I realized that the migraines, fatigue, weight gain, IBS symptoms, nausea, nonexistent libido, emotional rollercoaster, all of it is from that tiny little pill. I can feel that my body is dehydrated, and I'm drinking water almost 24/7 but it doesn't seem to be getting any better. To top it all off, when I went to see my doctor in May about the migraines, he did blood work and the only thing that was abnormal was that I have high cholesterol. It's 235 and I am only 21 years old. I thought that was strange, but since I am originally from the south and grew up on fried chicken and then moved to Maryland where I now enjoy crab I figured it stood to reason. Guess what Yaz also causes, ladies! High cholesterol. But it's the new age oral contraceptive that doesn't cause any of the common side effects. You know what? Legally, that's not a lie. These side effects don't seem to be common of any other oral contraceptive. I'm so angry! I can't even resolve to not think about it because the constant pain in my head serves as a reminder. You ladies on this website are the reason that I started my research on Yaz and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am coming off of this pill.

I'm a 38 year old male who has had asthma, allergies, and bronchitis ever since I was a small child. I've tried many different medicines and steroids over the past decades to try an control my asthma. I recently was introduced to Singulair by my doctor, and in the first 2 weeks I had no symptoms and my asthma was miraculously controlled. However, after those first initial 2 weeks I started showing some serious symptoms; nausea, joint stiffness, dizziness, lack of energy, dehydration. But the worst side effect is the MIGRAINES! I used to suffer from migraines in the past (about 4 per year that would each last about 2-3 days max.). Now I have had a migraine for the past 10 days, and if you've ever had a migraine before then you would know how crippling it is. I was waking in the night because the headaches were so bad. I put this solely on the Singulair because I am not taking any other medication except Ventolin (which I have used since I was 5), and I've juggled my diet trying to see if it was a food reaction but it wasn't. I have stopped taking the Singulair for 3 days and counting, but I still have my migraine, I know it takes some time to get it out of my system. Originally I was excited to see the Singulair working but now I can't wait until its gone, its made my life hell. I will go back on to SYMBICORT because it did help manage my asthma, and most importantly; it didn't suffer any side effects from it.
