Terrible things symptoms and conditions

To send a report to the FDA about Lipitor and the side effects, go to ****** Hopefully, if enough people will complain about this dangerous drug, the FDA will ban it and it will be off the market.

Also reading other people's side effects... when i started the pill i had my period for a month and a couple of days.... THAT ISN'T NORMAL.. i don't care what people say that your body has to get used to the pill... that just does notttt seem healthy to me at all! and i too noticed cellulite on my legs i was horrified!!!!!!!!! so many bad things happened to me because i was on it.. i too was losing my hair.. and still am .... my mom even noticed and was making a huge deal out of it.. whatever i HATE that pill whenever anyone brings it up .. i only have terrible things to say about.. good for you if it works for you.. because i think it sucks!

I am 46 and was given Loestrin to stop excessive bleeding for the past 4 weeks. Within days I had the most horrible cramps, back pain, heavy bleeding, emotional distress. Doctor wants to do an ablation or remove uterus. talk about distress. took me 10 days to realize my problems really began after taking Loestrin. I was about to undergo the ablation he was pushing for. (Which I've heard more terrible things about). Stopped the pills. Loaded up on vitamins and iron and within one day felt alive again. three days later the horrible cramps stopped and the bleeding is almost gone. Now I remember how much I hate prescription drugs. I will resist all forms of hormones, birth control pills and the like from now on. I was never one for heavy bleeding. I was told repeatedly that this is normal at your age. I still don't believe that one.

I was taking 75 mgs daily and still felt nervous, but completely myself. after I told my doctor, she upped my dosage to 150 mgs. for about a month, I felt really weird, and totally disconnected. After a month though, I felt a lot better. I haven't had any other symptoms since then.

Prednisone is a catabolic steroid, not anabolic which increases muscle, so people should know that continued use over time will literally break down and destroy muscle tissue. Without muscle, a person has no way of even standing more than a few seconds and could suffer many falls.....these falls are worse on the prednisone patient because prednisone also effects bone density and multiple disc fractures can result, leaving the person wheelchair bound.

How do I know? That's what happened to my mom. Also, if you are in a nursing home and contact scabies, forget about ever getting rid of them prednisone supresses the immune system so it can't kill them off, even with all the meds and treatments out there for scabies. Again, my mom.

My doctor started me on Mevacor a few months ago at 40 mg - I could hardly stand up to walk - my back was killing me! Then she put meon 5 mg of Zocor - okay for the first few weeks, and my cholestorol went down so she told me to double it to 10 mg - then the leg cramps started. I stopped taking if for a few weeks and restarted at 5 mgs (again) last week - now my legs are aching and my ankles are swollen big time. Also noticing fatique and some blues/depression. I told my doctor today that I am not taking it anymore! Not asking her, TELLING her.

It's hard to describe all the side effects I think I am having from taking 50mg. of toprol 1x a day, at bedtime. Since taking it, I have heart palpitations,flushing, full body pain, sleep all the time. Feel without hope- so I guess that would be described as depression. I have 0 energy, or even motivation. I have become a hermit in my own house, have not gone out anywhere at all- the entire summer. At first I thought it was becuase certain terrible things were happening with my daughter- but now that has abated-BTW she's 47. So I don't think the way I am feeling has to do with that. I feel just ghorrible- worse every day. Don't want to do anything. All I do most of the time, is sleep, or pray that God will let me die- I have nothing to live for- or Please heal me. Finally I have an appointment with my Cardiologist-Internist this Thursday, and I will ask him to take me off the Toprol. Tonight I am not going to take it, nor anymore until I see him. Nancy

I had bronchitis, they gave me something called a "dosepack" which was steroids, it did terrible things to my voice... swollen throat, croaking, almost laryngitis.

With advair, it's just a swelling in the throat, but it's annoying enough that I want to reasearch alternatives.

hey everyone,
i haven't looked at this site since a few weeks after coming off yasmin last year. i'm always amazed how many thousands of women write in-- probably thousands more than this horrible pill was tried out on before it was sold! i'm still trying to get the money back from my clinic since this poison is the most expensive one on sale in ireland.
i just wanted to share my experience of coming off yasmin. i was on it for two years and knew it wasn't right for me but i didn't put all the symptoms together until i found this site, and like most of the women here, was pretty relieved that i wasn't crazy. so when i stopped taking it i waited for all the terrible things to happen and none of them did. my periods were irregular for a while. but i lost the weight, my breasts stopped hurting, i stopped waking up in the middle of the night with leg cramps, no more diarrhoea, no more thinking i was the ugliest and craziest bitch in the world and no more telling my boyfriend i didn't feel like it.... don't be scared and just stop taking yasmin before it seriously wrecks your body! i'm so much happier without it. of course everyone has different experiences, but i thought i'd encourage people to stop taking it rather than continue out of fear that they'll feel worse when they stop. all the best ladies!

I feel when it wears off and it makes me anxious and its hard to breathe until I take my next one.

must take every nigh or shortness of breath

I feel like something has taken over my body and killed the happy section of my brain. I don't think I have ever been so depressed in my life except for when I was anorexic. I am having a terrible time breathing and my chest has been tight, sharp pains, since I started this on Sunday. I heard so many good things about this pill from the write ups, but had to search further because such terrible things have been happenng to me since I started this pill 5 days ago.
