Yasmin definitely got rid of my cramps...I don't pass out from the pain anymore. I thought of Yasmin as the miracle drug until now. Here are some of my symptoms that I've never linked to Yasmin 'til now:
- Headaches (my doc diagnosed me w/ having migraines....they are hereditary; no one in my family has migraines). I now believe my bizarre headaches are Yasmin related.
- Weight gain: not much...about 5 lbs
- Moodiness & extreme fatigue: only around period time
- Blurry vision: could be linked to Yasmin...I never had to wear glasses until two years ago.
- Shortness of breath, occasional chest pain
- Dizziness: some...especially after eating.
I have NOT experienced the following which have been mentioned here: no leg cramping, no nausea or vomitting, no panic attacks, no hot flashes, no acne, no trouble sleeping, no brown spots on my face, no unusual discharge, no hair loss.
I'm not sure what to do now...I don't want to continue taking Yasmin (or any other BPC for that matter....they all have side effects...) I want my strange headaches to go away but I don't want my horrible cramps to come back.
I'm supposed to start a new pack tomorrow...but I'm not.
Much luck to all of you!
