A Girl with a lot of issues

Recently I was prescribed bactrim for a staph infection. On the fourth day I developed a severe rash all over my body. Swelling of my feet and hands. By the time I got to the Dr. my blood pressure had dropped dangerously low and I nearly fainted. The Dr. gave me three shots, cortisone, prednisone and one other I cant remember. By that time my breathing was weak. So the Doctor sent me by ambulance to ER.During the five minute ride my pressure dropped really low again. The EMT started an IV. SInce Primary care Dr. had already taken steps to treat me, ER did very little other than keep watch of vital sighns and let IV finish. ER Dr. concluded it was do to bactrim. He prescribed prednisone and over the counter benadryl and sent me home. After taking prednisone rash seemed to get worse, noticed new rash behind ears and on the top of my head were lumps. Blood pressure has been spuradic at best, but not dangerous. It has been 24 hours now and no changes. My side effects include headache, backache, swelling of feet and hands, rash all over body, itching, raised welps on legs,arms,behind ears and on top of head. The swelling of my feet has went down but my hands are still swollen and sore to the touch. One question. There seems not to be much medicine to help this. I just have to let it run its course how long could the recovery take.

I am 30 years old and have been put on Depo Lupron after a laproscopy to help with endometriosis. I am 2 months into a 6 month course (one shot every 3 months) of Depo Lupron and my life has drastically changed. I started feeling life altering hot flashes and night sweats two days after the first shot and nearly drown myself in sweat 24 hours a day. I experienced a little postpardum depression after giving birth 6 years ago but have found myself sunk into a sinking hole of depression and anger like I've never felt before. I bawl at McDonald's commercials and become enraged if the dishwasher isn't loaded properly! I am ecstatic one minute and severely depressed the next. I have even had thought of suicide since being on this shot. I am normally a very outgoing, athletic, cheerful, happy person - but since taking this shot, I have become a stanger in my own head. I tell my family all the time that I need to "go stick my head in the freezer" to cool off because of the horrific hot flashes. I have to carry a handheld fan with me 24 hours a day and sleep with ice packs to keep cool. Since the shot started 2 months ago, I have lost all sexual drive, am thoroughly exhausted by 9am and find myself crying at my desk at work by late afternoon because I am so tired. My family thinks I am going crazy and I've never fought more with my husband. My daughter has gone to grandma's for awhile because I'm just so tired and irritable that I feel like an awful mother. Migraines have also come full circle since the onset of the shot as well as blurred vision and shaky hands. I'm a little achy throughout the as well. I know that everyone responds to medication differently, but I'm finding a lot of people with the same side effects as myself and have to wonder why the doctors don't warn patients about these types of problems before prescribing medications such as Depo Lupron. I don't think I'll be going back for the second shot. Could it get any worse?

I started taking Lupron about two weeks ago; I have taken only one shot out of three shots recommended by my Doctor to shrink my Fibroid; I don't fee like taking it anymore. I noticed I lost my sexual urge.

Please advise

I have created a group on Yahoo to talk about the side effects of Gardasil. If you or a loved one has had the vaccine and has experienced side effects, please come and tell your story.

90% BLOCKAGE OF MY SUPERIOR SAGITTAL VEIN IN MY BRAIN..... HUGE BLOOD CLOT IN MY BRAIN DUE TO LOESTRIN 24FE........... THANK GOD I AM ALIVE!!!!!! PLEASE READ BELOW ....................... I was placed on Loestrin 24fe Feb. of this year, after taking it for a month and a half I got a terrible headache on a Tuesday and no matter how much Advil or Tylenol I took it wouldn't go away, well finally I went to the 24hr urgent care center at about 1a.m.Thursday morning. after 3 shots of morphine that didn't work, a Dr. (MALE) trying to tell me that it was just a migraine (from birth control and I should switch to the Depro shot) and I didn't treat it fast enough, so I had to stick it out, mind you they had given me three shots of morphine by this time and my head still felt like it was going to explode. needless to say he discharged me and the nurse that was caring for me said against her better judgment she was letting me go home but grabbed my hands looked me square in the eyes and made me promise if I didn't feel any better or my headache got worse by the morning I would go to the nearest E.R and make them scan my head because at this point she said you don't have to tell me that the medication isn't relieving the pain I can look at you and tell you it isn't working... long story short.. I kept my promise to her and ended up back at the E.R less then 12hrs later, they to put me in minor care and said it was just a migraine headache, gave me morphine again (Which didn't work this time either) until I gave the run down of being at the urgent care center just a few hours earlier and the nurse making me promise to make them scan my head because her concern was what was causing the headaches that wasn't responding to the morphine?? Finally the Dr. (Male) listened to me and ordered a cat scan, said something looked abnormal the Dr. moved me to the real E.R. and then ordered an MRI then B4 they could wheel me back to my room in the regular hooked back up to my i.v. the wheeled me back and did MRV's with and with out contrast. A neurologist came and gave me my diagnosis and told me i was lucky to be alive that I was at extreme risk 4 seizures and strokes and that i needed to notify someone at home of what was going on. I was admitted from the e.r directly to ICU. My diagnosis was Superior sagittal venous thrombosis. I had a 90% (blood clot) blockage of the main vein that runs down the center of your brain (Dr. say its from the Birth control) feel free to write me with any questions, just be careful, with any birth control choice that involves hormones. theres more to this story I am not some crazy lady I am very lucky to be alive and would never want anyone else to go through the hell I have been going through since April of this year.my email address is ****** Thank you again Nurse ***, Fl for saving my life..... You are truly one of God's angels walking among us.

Check this out below... I cut this from a posting on the internet about cerebral venous thrombosis which they also refer to the blood clots of the veins in ones brain. take care, hope to hear from you soon. Headache is the most frequent symptom in patients with cerebral venous thrombosis. However, patients presenting with headache due to cerebral venous thrombosis are uncommon. The association between oral contraceptives and cerebral venous thrombosis is well known. We report the case of a young woman who was admitted to our department for sudden onset of headache. She had been taking oral contraceptives for 6 months. Early pharmacological approach with analgesics failed to alleviate symptoms. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed thrombosis of the posterior and middle thirds of the superior sagittal sinus (SSS). Because the patient was oligosymptomatic, medical treatment with high-dose heparin was started. A clinical follow-up showed headache regression after 2 weeks of therapy. Subsequent MRI showed partial re canalization of the SSS. The patient continued oral anticoagulants for 3 months. Eighteen months after discharge, the patient was symptom-free. We conclude that new, persistent or atypical headaches in patients taking oral contraceptives should be carefully evaluated for cerebral venous thrombosis.

I had three shots over Feb-July of 2005 to clear up severe eczema before my wedding. For whatever reason, my eczema stopped responding to the usual homeopathic remedy I take for it and I had to clear it up quick! Kenalog worked well but definitely having "menstrual irregularities." I've had periods that last two weeks or longer; lately they run 9 days with another "period" shortly after (bright red color). My last shot was July and I've returned to homeopathy but four months later I'm still having "irregularities." Today, during my "side effect" period, I've soaked through a regular tampon every 1.5 hours! How long before this works out of my system!? Arrghhh!

I have received three injections of kenalog over the last two years to control my eczema. My eczema has greatly improved however I did notice a couple of troubling side effects. I too have experienced the indentations where I received the injections. I received the three shots in my right buttock and now it looks like a golf ball. I thought I could ignore it, however I am starting to notice it when I wear tighter pants. I am not sure if it will go away or not.

In regards to my menstrual cycle I actually noticed a positive reaction in that it is much less painful. I have been plagued with extremely painful cramps for all of my life and since I have received the injections it has been much more bearable. I am assuming it is because of the anti-inflammatory properies of steriods. I did however, notice more clotting. And the first time I received the shot, I got my period for two weeks straight.

I also noticed temporary weight gain which took a couple of months to control.

The other more troubling side efffect was recurrent bacterial vaginosis and yeast infections. I couldn't understand why I kept suffering from them until I asked my doctor and she said that steroids lower resistance to yeast infections, bacterial infections and viral infections.

Although my eczema is much improved I think this will be my last injection because the side effects are becoming too irritating and I am concerned about the long term effects on my bone health.

A little indentation on my buttocks is well worth the relief of this insatiable urge to dig my eyes out of their sockets. I've been taking Kenelog at 80mg once a year for 35 years. There is an indentation, which is more like a small cute dimple. My eyes don't itch, my nose doesn't run and I can actually be outside every day with no side effects. This is a priceless medication for which there is no known substitute.
