Well my experience with Wellbutrin has been better than that with Lexipro which i was on for a month as well . I have been taking Wellbutrin for about a month now at 150 mg's. I am 15 years old and am on it for ptsd,depression,and anxiety I've been experiencing really vivid and horrific nightmare, mostly centered around cuts on my body and hurting my loved ones, it was really concerning me so I asked my psychiatrist about it, he recommended that I switch to different med's . So if any of you are experiencing what I am you might want to concider that option. Wish me luck on my path to a long awaited relief

I am so mad right now. I blindly trusted my doctor and had mirena inserted one year ago, just realized reading the posts that the mess I am in right now, started with this thing. I have gone thru a very bad year of depression, weight gain, aches and pains and no energy. I put on 40 pounds and lay in bed countless days and was also prescribed wellbutriun and lexapro, for severe depression, with suicidal thoughts, no sex drive, mood swings and just feeling I could not move out bed and totally helpless. What is the most scary part is that I was put on these thinking that it was all my brain's fault.
After all, my marriage had not been in so good shape, I got pregnant at 41 and had an abortion due to many complications. Also I had lost my job and when I decided to work for my best friend and got hurt on the job, requiring 3 months of treatment, I discovered I did not have a best friend after all. I finally start therapy and after several months of ups and downs, even with meds and counseling, I feel I have not made much progress at all. Today when I decided to go online to check on my meds side effects and getting terrified with it, I decided to check on mirena. I can tell you that, having this put inside of me put me in soo much risk for depression which in turn led me to the meds that also can course weight gain, confusion,dizziness, liver demage and a bunch of other things. DO NOT EVER TAKE YOUR DOCTOR S WORDS AS THE GOSPEL.

I am so glad I found this web site. I had Mirena before for three years with no problems at all, I loved it. So after I had my daughter I had another one put in around oct 2007. I thought it was fine and latley I have been feeling as if I was going to start a period and nothing has happened. So I started looking up mirena realated problems and up came this page. I seriouly thought I have been going crazy my biggest issue is my moods. I will have incresdible bursts of rage (wich is not me at all) for no reason at all. Along with the anger Other symptoms I have are, severe fatigue, bloating, cravings, acne, mood swings, dizziness, memory loss, painful intercourse, depression, nausea, weight gain, severe backaches and cramping. I NEVER put all of these things together with merina I thought it was all just my body getting back to normal after having a baby. I am absolutly dumbfounded. It all makes so much sense. I am going to go and get it removed and my husnband is going to get a vasectomy. I know this works for some people but it is good to know I am not alone in this craziness.

I have been using NuvaRing for about 3 months now, it is my first time using any kind of birth control. I haven't been the same since I've been on the NuvaRing my boobs have gotten bigger which is a good thing but they hurt some times, I've also experienced headaches, abdominal pains, lower back pains, depression and lack of sleep, had my period for only 3 days and it wasn't a lot of bleeding.My sex drive has not been the same lately I just don't feel like doing it with my boyfriend at all, I've been thinking that I might be pregnant, but its impossible I've been very careful. I decided to take the ring out and have been off it for a couple of day but I still have some of the same feelings.How long would it take for me to go back to normal? Some one please help me.

Hi,
I am a 36 years old italian girl,I apologize for grammar mistakes I will make, but I really want to share my bad experience with the ring.
I didn't find anything on italian websites, most of women simply find it great as I did for the first 5 minutes, but I soon started to experience strange effects wich I couldn't imagine were related to the ring.
The notice doesn't say many things!
When I inserted it, my period stopped to reappear after 15 days very heavy, this way I had a period of almost 2 weeks!
Second month I didn't have spotting, but I started experience chills and flashes as well as vertigos (and I was on holiday!) but I didn't think this could be the ring, as I say, the notice doesn't speak about this.
My cholesterol is higher together with 2 others levels in my blood analysys I am not able to translate.
Third month I gained 4 kilos in 2 weeks and believe me I am so concerned about my weight, always going to the gym and eating healhty. My breast and belly are huge as if I was pregnant and spotting is neverending.
I drink a lot of water, but don't go to the bathroom as much as I should, it seems I am absorbing all the water I drink!
Last thing my eyes are burning and it is getting difficult to stay to the computer
I will change b/c asap. I am happy I have found this site, it makes me feel that I am not alone.
Thank you girls

Just got off of lisinopril a few days ago under doctors orders after taking the drug for about 6 months. Was having bouts with itchyness with skin writing all over the body, went to a dermatologist and suggestion was made that lisinopril was the culprit. Itctyness is subsiding now. Still coughing with a little phlem once and a while that I hope will subside within a few weeks. Was getting shorness of breath wich seems to be getting better as the days progress being off the drug. On the plus side it had lowered the blood pressure significantly. Am now monitoring and recording blood pressure at home till drug diminishes from system and something else can be prescribed if needed....

I just started the IVF process and I am on my 3rd day of the lupron injections, 5 units. I started having hot flashes, and sweats lasting the better part of today, I also am experiencing a mild headache. I thought i would get online to see if this was typical for the medicine. I am also taking birth control pill wich will stop tommorow. I haven't taken BCP's in over 16 years and only for a few months. The BCP's did have me nauseous, and a little moody but i have seen a marked difference in the taking of the lupron in just three days. Only 5 units I am thinking whoa! I can just immagine what will happen over the next few weeks of this.

I got a kenalog injection 5 months ago.I am still having terrible periods but atleast not 2 or 3 a month anymore,they just last 7 to 10 days now ,very heavy with spotting after.How long will this last?I also have atrophy that keeps getting bigger and deeper.I will need to get Sculptra injections wich are very expensive and only a temporary fix.Like so many others I have also had other side effects,acne,hair loss and growth,headache,cramps,ect...Hopefully none of us will get any of the life threatening side effects like blood clots.I got the boxed insert from Brystol Meyers and it lists all of the side effects that the doctors failed to tell us about.You can call 1 800 321-1335 and get a copy mailed or faxed to you.

I went to the doctor for trouble breathing. I also wanted to take a physical cause I have never taken one. So he just checked me and prescribed me prednisone 10mg 1pill every antibiotics, and an Inhaler.

The side effect was swollen face and neck within the week of taking it. I would take one a day or sometimes I wouldnt take it and vise versa. But It was supposed to be for 5 day wich would be 10 pills and since. The doctor said yeah keep taking it. So this past week has been 6 more.

16pills in total through a period of three weeks and what I feel is
Pain in my left shoulder. Like muscle pain. My breathing problem once in a while. When I dont have anxiety. My face is not swollen, cause when it did get swollen I would feel it.
Well the doctor said after my X-ray exam that I had bronchitis and previous imflammatory disease. but still I dont know what was the problem in the first place.

For this amount of prednisone how Much effect is it going to do?

Because its been 2 days that I dont take it.

I have only been on this for about 5 days and I just came from the eye doctor because I had very blurred vision, after looking at me eyes He was concerned of more than a migraine. Possibly swelling behind the eyes wich is called "Adema" part of a side effect on Ovcon. My breasts have been extremely tender and HUGE! A little moodiness and anxiety have also been associated. I am going to see my obgyn today and let Him know what the eye doctor reported.
Praise God He heals us and Comforts us Through His Son Jesus Christ.

I belive that there is a thread in here about someone who had a stroke for yasmin. It was from a lady who was from another site. I also heard of a 19 year old girl who had a small heart attack wich was linked to yasmin. I would sugest that you stop taking this pill asap if you have any odd side effects!!!!

I started taking Zoloft in 2002, I had suffered from social anxiety disorder wich led to depression as well. I started taking setraline and felt normal for the first time in my life I was totally comfortable in every situation. I began to make friends at a rapid rate and was loving every second of my life. Stupidly I stopped taking the meds as soon as I felt better and have been on and off of the medication. I just started taking 200mg a day due to the fact that the 100mg dose wasnt helping any more, im 6ft4 190 lbs. I recommend this druf to anyone who is having trouble with depression or sad along with counseling. Anyways the side effects have been delayed ejaculation, better sleep, the first 2 weeks I felt like I was drugged everything was just cloudy and I had a wierd feeling in my stomach.

I took Levaquin for 2 months. The first few weeks no problems, then I started having pain in my bones lower legs, When I went to get some food from the fridge, I could not crouch to reach the bottom shelf anymore, then knees hurt like hell, my hips, lower back, cant stand up, chills all the time, but I thought it was from my prostate infection maybe it spread or something, or maybe I was being silly, maybe it's the cold weather? so I ignored it.

Then I sprained both my ankles, one week after each other. Then that only added to my pain, I was walking like a 100 year old man, limping on both sides. Everything I did some part of my body hurt.

Now I know what old age is like.

I had something wich I thought was a heart attack twice, my chest felt really tight, like a car was on it, I thouhgt I was gonna die, it lasted about 15 munites the first time, I crwled from the kitchen table to the couch, and about 5 minuts the ssecond time. I thught I'm getting old and gonna die soon.

Then I started feeling pain in my butt (laugh) for real, my thigh muscles felt like I just ran a marathon, my whole body felt like I been hit by a train.

By palms are numb, my thumb is numb, I can hardly type this post right now cause I cant use my left hand that much anylonger (and I'm left handed). I cant turn my head anymore because my neck hurts. I feel like I'm dieing.

After reading this post, what happenned to poeple on Levaquin for only a few days, and I was on it for two months! oh my god!!

I start to get strange headaches, not really bad ones, but strange hard pain like feeling. My vision is also going, I can see clearly from each eye seleratly, but when I use both eyes at the same time it's blurry, strange, its as if my brain cant use both eyes at the same time anymore.

My body feels really bad as if I'm 100 years old. I wonder if maybe I have prostate cancer, and it spread really fast all over my body, or it's the levaquin that's doing it? I sent for the AMAS kit that test for cancer because I know somethings wrong with me. I hope its the levaquin and not cancer!

when i got my first shot of lupron was in march of 2003.it was a one month dose to help cure my endometerosis. I wa the worst thing that i could of done. I got a sever headache right after the shot was givin with in the next four hours i experianced a headach like no other and was throwing up uncontrollabley, as for the rest of the month i had to bear through i couldnt sleep due to the nite sweats. i would awake in puddles litteraly, and then freeze to death trying to go back to sleep in phoenix arizona. i got hot flashes so bad i would feel like i was going to pass out and i seemed to walk around in a daze. Anyway i getting so ill from the medication i lost my job and now i am still here fighting the excruciating pian because even though i cant have kids i am only 23 and i might want one one day. this disease is so hard and for those who cant have kids they wont give you the cure wich is a hystorectomy, so us , all of us unfortunate soles are left to either become addtict to pain killers, because of the severity of the pain, or just try to deal with it, and for those that do i commend you. there has to be some humanity for our kind some kind of treatment that can help us if the doctors wont due surgury and birth control jus wont work besides making us twice as ill from the lupron. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP US!
