Wisdom teeth symptoms and conditions

My 17 year old daughter is on Yasmin and has been for over a year. She is taking it to regulate her periods and heavy bleeding. We have not noticed any side effects at all. She has a learning disability and a low IQ. She is also on Buspar for anxiety which she has had long before Yasmin. She is also on Strattera for her ADD. Now, after reading and hearing about all these terrible side effects such as stroke, heart disease, kidney failure, blood clots, etc. I am going to ask our doctor about this. I read one post that said if you were on Yasmin and you had to take Motrin you should have blood tests...what kind if this is true? She just had her wisdom teeth out and has taken plenty of Motrin along with other pain medication. This is just way too scary....scared Mom in SC

How interesting -- I'm a 56 old female. Went to my Dr. because couldn't shake a chest cold, feeling like lungs not a full capacity. She listened and agreed there was too much wheezing. She gave me an Advair 250 inhaler, although when I asked, said that it would, my lungs would eventually clear themselves up. Instructed me to take twice a day for 5 days, then once a day until I felt I didn't need it anymore. The third night I was up all night with deep ache in my wisdom teeth, some bleeding in the gums, used ice packs and ibuprofin (sp?) to get through the night. After another day and night like that I could only think it was the Advair so stopped it. Saw my dentist 2 or three days later -- pain was decreasing, but wanted to be sure there was no infection. Showed denstist the inhaler but she said it couldn't be that and there were no signs of infection. So -- tried Advair again but again by the 2nd night I was up again with the ice packs, pain killers and bleeding gums. No more Advair for me, and I'm relieved to read that others had the same reactions I did as it means I'm not completely nuts.

I just started taking Meprozine today after having all 4 of my wisdom teeth surgically remove. As of yet I have seen no side effects whatsoever and am wondering if it might take a while to kick in. By no side effects I even mean no relief in pain, I've only taken 2 so far so I guess their is a chance it just hasn't kicked in quiet yet. Any advice on what to take when pain pills don't seem to offer any pain relief?

So i told you I would post an update from my gyno... so here it is (below is my original post)

I went to the doctor and her nurse asked me if i had a little bit of cramping and i said yeah its actually off to the side, and she said that i might have some sort of blockage by my ovaries.... well then my doctor came in and she said that everything was perfectly normal. and decided to put me onto yaz... well i'm not going to take it. and it worries me that i might have a blockage. I took out the ring last night and it is gone for good! I can't wait to get back to my normal self. i am going to see how i do this month without the ring and still see if i have the cramps if i do i will go back if not then we can just assume it was caused from nuva....

So I got on NuvaRing because I needed something with low hormones that wouldn't make me crazy like other BC's. I've been on it for almost 3 years now and didn't start having problems until recently. Now I get night sweats... i wake up and i am soaking wet from sweat, depressed, cry and get angry for no reason. Like the other night I was in the middle of eating dinner and i just started balling uncontrollably for no reason. My sex drive really hasn't decreased all that much it's still there; but i have discharge like there is no tomorrow and sometimes it smells. I figured if i douched that would help the situation but apparently not. I also haven't had a "period" in like 4 months and i'm not pregnant. I say "period" because NuvaRing doesn't allow your ovaries to ovulate so it's not really a period but withdrawal blood because your not shedding any uterine lining.I also recently have had bad migraines... thinking that having my wisdom teeth finally removed would take care of that issue but it's been 3 months since that and the answer is no. I have no energy to do anything all i want to do is sleep but i hate sleeping because i wake up soaking wet from sweat. It bothers me when my husband and I have sex and hurts. I also can not go a day without taking pepto; my stomach hurts even if i drink water. don't get me wrong i love the fact that i've lost weight but not because my stomach hurts too much to eat. I know if your looking for something to help you pin point what it is i'm sorry that you're not getting it from me. But I can tell you this after a while you get tired of it. I am going to talk to my gyno to see what my other options are. I can't take it any longer and neither can my husband. I have never PMSed as bad as I have been lately. If you're experiencing any of these I would recommend you call your gyno/dr and let them know; there could be something better for you out there. Sometimes I wonder why we woman put our bodies through these things. If all else fails looks like we'll just be going back to the old school days of condoms and spermicide lube. i'll post in a few days after my gyno apt to let you know what she said about my symptoms... but you'll know when you've had enough.

Two days ago I took out my third molars (wisdom teeth), afterwards I took a prescription strength 600mg Ibuprofen with no side effects. I took another pill 6 hours later, and I have been having the worst upper stomach pain, much worse than the tooth ache ever was since then. I have been waking up with agonizing pain every hour for the past two nights, and I can't even take Tylenol for my tooth pain now since my stomach is so messed up (I tried and it cause horrible stomach pain).

So on top of having to treat the stomach problem, I can't take any pain medication for my teeth and I'm just miserable. I'm 25 years old and have never had stomach problems before, the first night I thought I was poisoned or something and I was dieing. I think the small label on the bottle that says "if it causes upset stomach, take it with crackers or bread" needs to be replaced with "it doesn't matter what you take it with, it can cause much more pain that you have ever imagined." Because it actually doesn't matter if you take it with bread, or inject it to yourself, the function of ruining the stomach lining is because of it's anti-inflammatory chemicals, not direct contact with stomach.

I read about it now, and apparently the deaths from Ibuprofen and Aspirin (anti-inflammatory pain medications) caused by gastrointestinal problems is about as many as deaths by HIV-Aids in USA*. I don't see any Ibuprofen awareness rallies though. I wish I had time to sue someone because I really really want to.

Nothing. I just had 2 wisdom teeth and one other tooth exracted. I am taking meprozine at least every 4 hours. Yes I'm a tiny bit off balance and it is making me a little tired AND it is relieving the pain.

Side affects? pain relief and some drowsiness.
Fine with me. I think you'd have to take something else so you can go back to work. Something that doesn't make you drowsy. I hope I don't become addicted by it as someone else stated.
Happy with meprozine.

After having all my wisdom teeth out, I took Meprozine when I felt I needed it, in half-doses after the first day, and only for a few days in all.
When I took it, I was easily startled, jumpy, and sensitive to being touched, especially unexpectedly. My eyes did not focus as they normally would, and I was mentally unfocused, too. I didnt attempt to drive while taking it, but Im sure that would have been a mistake if I had, because I think my reaction times were affected. When I dropped anything while on Meprozine, my heart would race as I watched it fall, and I was never able to catch it. I might have been a bit clumsier, too. I was glad when I got down to just Ibuprofeen after the first few days!

I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in April of this year (2007) kind of by accident through a routine checkup. I had gained a bit of weight over the past two years, but that was really my only symptom. I was begun on 75 mcg of a generic brand of Synthroid, levothyroxine. Since I began this medication, I have rapidly gained another 15 pounds despite a 1,000 calorie per day diet. I retain fluid horribly. My ankles, wrists, hands and face swell daily. My muscles ache, especially my legs, upon walking across a room. I'm fatigued, short of breath. My LDL cholesterol level has skyrocketed in only three months and now I'm being told I need to be on a statin drug. I cry frequently and feel uncharacteristically anxious and irritable, but this could be due to the frustration I am experiencing with the loss of my sense of well-being. In essence, I felt much better before being placed on the medication. I may, in fact, discontinue the medication totally and see if over time I begin to feel better. Like so many other stories I'm hearing, my doctor seems totally unconcerned.

I was given Doxycycline on Tuesday after having my wisdom teeth extracted as an infection preventative. I followed the directions carefully as I have always been very sensative to medications and wanted to be careful with this new one. Wednesday evening within minutes of taking the pill I was overcome with nausea. I began to vomit and with in an hour had severe chest/stomach pains just below my rib cage. The following morning I called the prescribing Dr. right away- The Dr. told me to stop taking the Doxycycline. It is now Saturday evening (3 full days later) and the horrible chest/stomach pain has not at all subsided. I have had a hard time functioning in this much pain and am eager for it to end, to say the least. On top of all of this I have also experienced bloating in my stomach and an intense amout of gas. (burping, etc.)
I realize I have obviously had a bad reaction to this medication, some people do and some people don't- it's the case with any drug. My main concern now is WHEN will these side effects end? How could two days on this medication have caused 3 additional days worth of such terrible pain? Should I contact my general physician on Monday, and if so is there even anything that they can do?
I have had drug reactions in the past, typically when one ends a medication one is also able to end the uncomfortable reactions of the medication. This is a nightmare....How long does this stuff stay in a person's system???? Scary thought, isn't it.

i hadn't noticed any bad sideaffects. i got propoxy for my wisdom teeth being taken out and i took it with tylenol. i was told it was a weaker form of oxycontin. it relaxed me but the place where my teeth were still kind of hurts.

I started taking meprozine after having my wisdom teeth extracted and had no problems. I only took it when I was at home because it would make me fall asleep within about 45 minutes of taking them.

I started taking this medicine after I got 3 wisdom teeth extracted and felt fine, last night I took one pill because my mouth started hurting so I wanted to be able to rest. Well I rested last night and now this morning I am regretting it seriously. I am seriously dizzy, confused, emotional, and have a little twitching. I WILL NEVER TAKE THIS MEDICINE AGAIN!!!!!

I was given Meprozine to take after getting my wisdom teeth taken out. I have a history of epilepsy, but have been seizure free for 12 years. In fact, I had an EEG last year and it came back completely normal. Well, a day after starting Meprozine, I felt very strange. I began to feel that sensation I would right before I would have a seizure. Sure enough, later that day, I did have a seizure. Luckily I was home and my husband was there with me. I'm kinda ticked off that knowing my history, this was the drug that was prescribed to me!

lisa... how about a bit of good old fashioned alcohol??? that kills bacteria and also you could try rinsing your mouth out with salt water...
when i got my wisdom teeth out it was great for stopping infection and bacteria..

The doctor gave me this medication after m wisdom teeth were pulled, they worked excellent for me, but i had a lot of them left over and i took at first just one a day just for kicks. the other day i had only 4 pills left and i took them all and it was one of the best trips ive ever been on. But, i am now addicted to the stuff and i really do want to break this habit, i have the shakes and feel the extreme urge for it every day. please e-mail me if u have any solutions

I've been prescribed pred. after having my wisdom teeth out. I'm now experiencing many of the terrible side effects...feverish feeling...panic...anger...swelling. I feel as if I may have had this wrongly prescribed. Anyone heard about it being used after teeth extractions? It seems crazy to have been put on this without it being ABSOLUTELY necessary.
