Washing dishes symptoms and conditions

I got taken off of abilify the very day I started. The doctor prescribed 2mg and the 5mg later if it worked out. I am thanking GOD he didn't start me out on 5mg. Less than 2 hours after I took the 2mg tablet, I was washing dishes and began to feel faint. I had to put my head down on the sink. My parents knew something was wrong. They kept asking me questions but my vision and hearing started to go. I managed to hear my mother tell me to hurry and make a peanut butter sandwich so I tried. Everything was getting darker and soon I couldn't hear either. My mom gave me the sandwich and I got better with each bite. I went to the hospital and they said i had hypoglycemia from abilify and I nearly went into a coma.

Kim123 - you poor thing, I will have you in my thoughts.

My main side effect has been SEVERE panic attacks and anxiety that of course comes with insomnia, nausea & chest pains.

I am trying very hard to recover without further medication and I'm trying to do it on my own. Sarah, another lovely lady on this site, has been very helpful in regards to this and has suggested some helpful tips.

Have you tried perhaps going to a homeopathic doctor? I tried that and he gave me some teas to help with my nerves, I just started yesterday and I think I need to give them about a week to find out if they work.

I also have an overwhelming feeling of sadness, for no reason at all. I'm just hoping it passes soon. I have been off this pill for three months, and I also took it for three months - so cheer up your recovery time may be less than mine.

All the best kim, and my advice is to distract yourself, keep busy doing things like washing dishes. I know sometimes you feel there's nothing that will help at which point all I did was cry hysterically and cry and cry, after that believe it or not I did feel a bit better.

If anyone has completely recovered, please let us know how many months you have been off yasmin.

Good luck ladies.

I have been off birth control since 2003. I had been taking Alesse and started to get terrible mood swings and horrific nightmares. I quit taking the pill all together and felt great. I recently decided to try the pill again. My doctor put me on Yasmin as a day 1 start. I started 3/11/06, I instantly gained weight, had terrible mood swings, headaches, breast tenderness and unstoppable "break thru bleeding." The final straw was when I woke myself and my boyfriend up with blood curling screams from a night terror. That was it, I quit cold turkey. The last day I took the pill was 3/26, since I wasn't on it very long I'm hoping I won't have any side effects while it gets out of my system however I have noticed that I have been extremely clumsy. I've been constantly dropping things, spilling things and I have even went so far as to cut my hand while washing dishes to the point of needing stitches. Has anyone ever had anything like this happen to them?

After two yrs on MMT my legs swelled up. Open sores are festering Wound care almost healed them Fluid is now weeping
like sweat from my leg. My doctor shouted at me,"I don't know what causing this. I've looked at everything it could be and your are fine." I can fall asleep and dream standing up at the grocery store, at a red light or washing dishes. I certainly do FALL asleep and I am alarmed when I hit the ground. Am I sweating from Methadone or experiencing hot flashes? I am full blown AIDS and HCV positive w/no viral load. I'm clean 3yrs with the help of large dose w/no craving 240mg daily

I have been taking Oxycontin for over two years now and I have had these side effects. One, I sweat really bad, even when I do something like washing dishes. Another one is I have been having pain in my stomach to the point I have to take some pills for the pain. I also know that I am losing more of my hair then normal. My mother use to take this medicine and when she quit taking it, she lost all of her hair. I also know that a friend of mine that takes this medicine is losing her hair too and she is still taking it.I have also had constipation.
