I took Doxy last summer for cystic acne. It worked fine and I didn't have any problems, and my skin cleared up nicely. I had some left over (bad, bad, I know but it hasn't yet expired!) so I started taking it again about 4 days ago. I noticed, almost immediately, severe tingling and burning in my fingers and hands and up into my arms when I am out in the sun and for hours afterwards. Also water (like washing my hands) makes the tingly feeling much worse. Weird, right? My two index fingers are bright red and any touch burns.
It's weird because last summer when I was on it I was out in the sun all the time with no problems at all.

I became severely depressed the last three months and I just realized that it may have to do with the Ring. I was doing well prior to this and I just thought maybe it was me, but I have been eating healthy and exercising regularly five days a week, sleeping fine up until about three months ago. I have had loss of energy, cant sleep at night and havent wanted to go out or do anything at all. I do get up to go to work and I have to really push myself to do this and to go to the gym afterwards. I love the warm weather and I havent even wanted to get out of bed to go outside - which is strange for me. Anyway, I am going to stop using it to see if my mood elevates - I was at the point that I was ready to go get on antidepressants - but I will first see what happens.

i forgot to say that i didn't have a skin problem before using yasmin, so i can't say if it's helping in that department as i am still pimple-free. my skin is the first thing to react to medication, but i look fine. no spots, allergic reactions (unlike with nordette; i had hives every night for 2.5 months), etc.
i feel that i'm short of breath faster than before, but again, wasn't sure if it was from the pill or my inactivity (or both, again).
i imagine my mood would be as dismal as everyone else's if it wasn't for the constant sunshine and warm weather here. after the termination of pregnancy 4 months ago, i haven't been so happy. but again, i don't know if it's because of the pill or circumstances.
and no increase in breast size, either... that's the only side effect that i welcome!! can't i get a break?!

I have only been on Budeprion for a week so I don't know if I am experiencing side effects or not. Yesterday I had hot flashes and dizzy spells, but I attributed them to the warm weather. I've had chronic dry mouth/throat which I heard is a side effect. I've also noticed that my hands have been cold and kinda sweaty, and today they feel pretty numb. I started taking this because I have been battling depression, smoking, and social anxiety for a long time and decided it was time to seek medical assistance. Yesterday I went out and had a good time, but afterwards I had a big panic attack...the first one in months! I think it's too soon to attribute this to the Budeprion XL. They said it could take over a month for it to build up in my system/take effect. Has anyone else had similar experiences?
