Hi everyone,
UPDATE -- I stopped Paxil CR and started taking Effexor XR today. The RN I saw spoke with me about my anxiety being a side effect of being on Yasmin post-partum for a total of about 12 months. The Paxil CR did not help me as much as I needed it to. I am praying for the day to come when I will need NO medicines... just like when I was pre-Yasmin. I was so healthy and happy before I poisoned myself to regualte my cycles.
ALSO - I tried (several times this week) to call the hotline on the YASMIN website to report an ill-effect of the medicine. I called today at 2:00 Eastern time as the website had the following:
Contact Us Product Information Hotline: 888.237.5394
Our specialists are available Monday through Friday, 9 to 5 p.m. EDT to help you with any questions you may have about YASMIN.
Well.... guess what -- nobody answered, I got the "after hours" message line. So, where are all of the "specialists" who can discuss my side effects??
Has anyone else called?
thanks :-) we are in this together......
