Wads symptoms and conditions

I have been on and off Lipitor for 2 years approx.
After a typical week on LIP I have left arm weakness, can't breathe fully, can't walk far, my pulse slows down to almost nothing, I get chest pains, my left side chest and around my shoulder is in such pain that if I try to gasp for a deeper breath my heart starts jumping missing beats. If I have some cheerios (low bad stuff) with soy milk (cow products are bad for anyone middle age or above) I can push what ever it is through my system to make it through the night; however if I don't have something to eat or an aspirin I'm sure with the worsening shooting chest pain and shooting pain in my neck and left hemisphere of my head area with accompanying foggy feeling, i'm really feeling that i'm having a stroke....
Get off th LIP and you heart muscle will attempt to repair itself somewhat.
There may be long term damage, so this needs to be solved.

On separate notes:The food companies like Zehrs keep adding fats and sugars into our foods, then the drug companies and doctors are scooping wads of cash to treat the symptoms. When they finally forced the food companies to eliminate trans fats from kids snacks, they added twice as much sugar so now along with obesity they can get diabetes. They rarely work on a cure or fixing the problems because they won't make money on it....
I find it strange that a lot of ladies getting cancer are working hard to raise money for treatments (the pink ribbon effort) but no-one will speak up against all these companies dumping tigger chemicals into our environment (water, air, landfills, products etc) as long as we all have cool hair dyes and appliances and stuff that is on the market making dollars before properly tested. We are the guinea pigs especially now that we are eating cr_p from China.... Guys, get off the drugs if you can;;; Too bad also, my kids are getting bombarded by tv commercials pushing sugar cereals and drugs for every little problem which cause worse side effects. I would like to invent a new good pill so I can become rich!!! ...Thanks, I have enjoyed reading that a lot of people are having similar side effects that I have had.
A higher power (not Al Gore) has given us internet technology to help solve a lot of problems, and protect innocent people from the huge worldwide companies. They have the money, we have the internet hopefully to use for the common good.
P.S. Nothing against Al, He is a great leader trying to do good things for mankind.

Everyone's posts have really helped me. I got Mirena inserted a year and a half ago right after my son was born. I thought it was the best option of BC because everyone was doing it. and only today I found out about it's symptoms from a friend. I am very moody and mean to my husband and son and I don't even know why. I have had HORRIBLE acne on my back and arms and sometimes my face.. It started out with just really oily skin like i could literally scrape off the oil with my nails and losing wads of hair with every shower. I thought it was my water and I even went out and got a shower head water filter and started using organic shampoo and soaps but the problem never went away it just got worse. I am constantly popping tiny wax balls from under my skin. I have a weird odor that i thought i would always have now because i had a baby or something. Sometimes I have a really thick mucus discharge that i have to pull out with toilet paper. And lastly I can't sleep through the night to save my life unless i take a dose of melatonin. The doctor never told me any of these side effects at least i would have known what was going on. This site and your posts helped me because i thought i was going CRAZY. and i thought that my marriage was just going to have to be the way that it was (unhappy with a side of no libido) because now we have a baby... coincidentally we also have Mirena. I'm getting it out ASAP I'm glad i'm not alone.

I started taking Femcon right after I had my left ovary removed and I had found out i had endometriosis. I also was very nauseous, fatigued did not have the ebergy to do anything. Another one of the effects I had after taking for about 3 months I started loosing my hair in wads at a time..I quit taking the pills after I bled 12 days straight and on average at the most is 3-4 days.This pill made me feel very depressed and it was hard to lose weight. Now that I have been off Femcon my attitude has improved and I am back on my work out regimen but my hair is still falling out.
