Tonite symptoms and conditions

Doctors really kind of hit and miss w/ all these agenda of telling patients that coumadin related symptoms are not at all what it seems..telling patients" it is all it your head"..what it seems and I know that doctors are 'tuned in" to tell patients "what they think they believe or read in textbooks and not listening to the real stories of these patients who are on these meds..they are therapeutic in a way to prevent blood clots in some conditions but in real situations those symptoms created by these meds are purely debilitating to some and having not to live life where discomfort won't hinder one from just living the normal life...free from all these adverse reactions,which are so crippling....I have made a decision to talk to my husband's cardiologist to have him stop taking this so called "rat poison" or surreal "human poison"...he was diagnosed w/ afib and had cardiac ablation..hubby's taking coumadin for about 8 months now-preventively...
but these symptoms had changed him into a very depressed individual..after reading all these tonight..I will take charge and will take control of our lives again and hopefully just live to be healthy again...thanx for all of you that posted these info.......

HORRAY... ITS OUT ! ! ! !

Had Mirena taken out today and it did not hurt at all.. At first my gyno could not find it as the end had turned and was stuck in my cervix but he managed to get to it... I feel a sense of relief and I am looking forward to finding the old me again without the acne and depression and I cant wait to loose the 10 klo i put on so i can wear my fav jeans again ...

A little bleeding tonight but no cramps so far. Will keep you updated on progress...

Wow I wish I had come across this website sooner. I started taking Femcon FE in September 08, after I stopped breastfeeding my then 1 year old. I had taken trivora before with the only problem being PMS symptoms (fatigue, acne) a week before my period would start. But the period would start like clockwork on the same day every 4 weeks. With Femcon FE I have not had 1 normal period in 9 months. Every month it starts early. I also have had continuous anxiety symptoms of heart palpitations and a twitching lower eyelid, which is embarrassing. I chalked those symptoms up to job related stress as I had a change in work environments in September, and long ago I would have these symptoms during highly stressful times in my life. But I cut back to almost no caffeine when I use to drink 2-3 cups a day of either coffee and soda, and still the heart palpitations and eye twitching continues. I'd rather have plain old PMS then a racing heart and twitching eye. My family doctor recommended I see a cardiologist and ran an EKG which was normal thank goodness. But I'm stopping this pill tonight and hopefully saying goodbye to a twitching eye and erratic racing heart.

I have been on singulair for 4 days. My ears hurt, my throat is sore and I have been getting SEVERE muscle spasms in my feet and legs when i go to bed. Taking med in p.m.____getting little sleep and feel very "fuzzy". I have asthmatic bronchitis and mild to moderate copd. Is anyone with these dx. on this med? any good effects with breathing? I can't take the pains and am stopping the med tonite.There HAS to be a better way!

Hello,

I read about how YAZ birth control pill affects the body and psych and I am now scared. This is my 2nd day of YAZ (I've never been on birth control pills ever and I am 27 years old), it's all new to me but after reading all these negative posts about Yaz I don't know what to do. Before the birth control pills, I was depressed, annoying, serious weight problems - 210 lbs :~~((, low energy, low libido, always tired, terrible migraines every 2nd day, ridiculously increased appetite and excessive hunger, hair where it shouldn't be, menstrual blood clots, excessive cramping etc
I have all these problems for 3 years now and now that the family doc. put me on YAZ birth control pill I am even more scared - mainly of more weight gain, it would be a tragedy for me, I am fat enough already and what's worse I can't lose the weight, exercise doesn't help, diet doesn't help, NOTHING. Will YAZ birth control pill worsen my already tragic condition? I just don't know what to do and what to believe ... I appreciate any advice or help you can give me ... Thank You to all!

My wife is having a severe allergic reaction, she is covered
in red welps all over her body. Started as small red dots
and blew up big time after she took a hot shower...seemed
to really "ignite" it. She is itching like severely and we are
possibly going to the hopsital if it gets worse tonite.

I am so glad I found this site. I have only been on Zocor for three weeks and have pain in every muscle from head to toe. It burns at times and at other times even my skin hurts. My vision has gotten hazy. I can't even open a bottle of water without help. I am only 42. I was put on 40mg every evening - because of being diabetic and the dr wanted my level to be at 100 or lower. I am in a lot of pain. The dr told me to stop taking the Zocar and sent me to the urgent care for lab work. Now we just have to wait for results. After what I have read here tonite, I am going to avoid statins and work on the diet and excersize aspect. It worked with using cinnamon for my diabetes.

I was diagnosed with angina two weeks ago..I was put on Lisinopril and Lopressor..After ONE week I cannot STOP coughing..it is so bad I now have an earache and pain in the back of my head and neck. I took a nitro pill and it did not help which rules out an angina attack..Doctor on called tonite told me to STOP the lisinopril which is most likely causing this cough. I've been up two nites from coughing. I am so tired. I can't sleep...I am in so much pain...how can I ever tell if I'm having an angina attack or heart attack. I will be seeing a cardiologist next week to discuss treatment......what's up with this medication????????

when i first was prescribed doxycycline for my moderate acne, i decided not to use it after reading all the side effects that were possible. yet today a month later...my acne has gotten worse..so i decided that tonite i would take the doxycycline. within an hour of taking it, ive vommited twice and my stomach still feels uneasy. im very nausous as well. i dont think ill be continuing this.....even if that means living with my acne.

I am so pleased to find this site, tonite! I have tryed Lisinopril, 3x..just started 4 days ago and already feel awful.
Symptoms include; tightness in chest, cough (I can deal with that tho), anxiety, depression, tremors and lethargy! I must try something else. Told my doc., but he says unlikely side effects..I have been miserable..not to mention my husband and friends..they are none too happy with me right now either.
That is what brought me here..finally, some feedback and confirmation that I am not being difficult to treat, but do indeed have a problem with this horrible medication. I am not taking it tonite..will call my new doc in the morning. This may help some..but it is surely not for everyone. My bp is stabilized..low, actually...but not worth the misery to me! Thanx to all of you who care enough to share! God Bless!!!!!!!

I started taking Lisinopril 4 weeks ago for HBP. At first I didn't have any side effects and my blood pressure was significantly lower. While my pressure is still in the normal range, I have recently developed bad chest pain at night. It is actually very frightening. My doctor is prescribing me some kind of reflux medication that I will start taking tonite. I also sweat now which I never have really been a sweater. I just feel depressed and all around crappy too. I am glad for this website otherwise I would think I was alone.
