I've just finished my second week on Loestrin 24 fe and everything's been wonderfull so far. I've had almost no side effects. My appetite hasn't increased at all, in fact, I might have lost a couple pounds in the passed two weeks. The only thing I'm sort of worried about is how emotional I've been lately! I get overwhelmed so easily. It's not so bad that I can't control it and snap out of it when I notice... but it's there. Just thought I'd add that to the list.

This is all very interesting, but it's all anecdotal! Can you PROVE that Singulair is responsible for all this stuff?
What other meds are you all taking? In what doses? Under what conditions? Do you have a family history of ? Are you under stress? Or are at least SOME of you just hypochondriacs who, reading this stuff, say to yourself, "Say, I get headaches -- sure, it's gotta be the Singulair!" C'mon, now -- hair loss?!
I've been taking Singulair for over 10 months, and if I'd been as damaged as you all, I think I'd know it.
Without rigourous medical studies to show what is REALLY going on, you lot are just gossipping.
This site is obviously trolling for a class-action suit.

hi guest 36095.
i also still get chest pains,i have been off yasmin for 8 months. i only seem to get them either around ovulation or menstruation but it feels like someone is sitting on my chest or like i have broken my ribs or something. i also get a sensation of not being able to get enough air sometimes. these sensations are linked to hormone imbalances and hopefully they like all the other wierd and not so wonderfull symptoms will go away.
Silke.

hi kim123.
i did not take lexapro, i tried diazepam for a very short while but it did not help me long term,it just took the edge off.i stopped it because it is very addictive. i did use the linden method,it is very good but i just did not have the time to do all the realxation cd's as i have 2 small children and getting 20 mins silence in my house would be almost as much of a miracle as me waking up cured! i imagine any kind of relaxation tape would be good.you need to relax your body and relax your mind,the linden method tapes basically tell you that your anxiety cannot hurt you and you do visualisations that include filling up imaginary clouds with your fears etc. if you have the time to do it then i recommend it. i also read loads of books on positive thinking and changing your life by changing your thought patterns. i know how you feel right now. i used to wake up and feel ok then within litterally seconds of getting up i would be full of fear and anxiety.i no longer feel that way.so it will get better for you to. if you do not want to increase your dose of lexapro then try the relaxation techniques.you can do it yourself by finding a comfy spot and thinking of a lovely peacefull scene,relax all your muscles and fill your mind with positive thoughts like how strong you are and how wonderfull your life,tell yourself you have no room for fear and negative thoughts,imagine a cloud and send all your negative thoughts into the cloud and just let them float away. it will take a while but you will feel more relaxed day by day.

hi.
-- By rachie | Reply | (3) replies | Private Message mei am so glad i have found this site. i was trying to make a decision wether to have my mirena coil taken out as i have had it in nearly three years and all the symptoms i have been having i thought it was me,
stomach ache, forgetfulness, sore boobs, depression, anxiety, moodiness, oh need i go on...
well i had my coil in 1st time around 5 years ago( about) and i thought it was great because i have unbearable heavy periods i cant go anywhere, well they went to nil, which i was very happy about, then i got pregnant.....had to make the decision of wether to risk having the coil out or leaving in either way can cause miscarriage, i had it taken out very carefully by a wonderful doctor.
my daughter is now three which i call my miracle baby.
i had it put in again because of my periods.. and even tho i don't have them i am regretting it cause im suffering so bad, Monday im having it out and looking forward to getting my body back to normal,,, i do however need a contraception, for my periods and obviously i don't want to get pregnant right now. so i don't know what to choose... i had the pill in the past got pregnant with my son!!!! so what d i do?> ill report back Monday when i have had it out (hopefully)thanks to everyones stories they have really helped me at least i know why im a moody cow
