Hi Hill, Sorry that you are not feeling well. The cold will pass. Fortunately you are no longer on Yasmin and are on your road to getting better. My experience is that I cannot take Benadryl or any cold medicine without getting a racy heart and/or totally exhausted. It is hard to say with certainty why you are having these symptoms. Keep an eye on them and see if you can see a direct correlation to the meds and the symptoms. You will know your body's reactions. I am about one and a half months off of Yasmin. I notice that my anxiety is peaking during ovulation and my period. I started Paxil CR 12.5mg when I stopped the Yasmin. I assume that it is helping keep the anxiety under control. Do alot of deep cleansing breaths when you feel anxious. Also, I recently purchased a couple of relaxation CD's. I listen to them in the late evening once my kids and husband are asleep. It has helped me fall asleep. Staying asleep has not been easy, but I am working on it. Also- Have you had your blood pressure checked?
