I took YAZ for 2 months and about 3 weeks into the first pack I started getting horrible stomach cramps every day at 2pm bloating, gas, the whole works. I was also having anxiety symptoms - the shortness of breath and elevated heart rate. I went to the dr about it because I was finding it hard to get my work done, and she took some blood and saw that my Creatinine was high. I also got Hives the other day covering my rear end and then disappearing. They still comeback in tiny patches....I quit YAZ last week and now I have a GI Doctor and a Nephrologist all trying to pin down what is wrong with me. Can YAZ cause kidney problems? Can you have an allergic reaction to it - shortness of breath, elevated heart rate and hives can be an allergic reaction. This is probably far fetched, but can all these YAZ symptoms make you Lactose intolerant. My doctor thought my symptons seemd like lactose intolerance, but I never was and never had these problems until YAZ.
FYI - for the moment, so I can be a productive human being again, my Doctor prescribed an antispasmodic - and it seems to alleviate the stomach pain very well.
You aren't alone
