Within five minutes of taking Yasmin for the first time, my throat swelled up and it was difficult to swallow. About ten minutes after that, my left arm began to tingle and feel numb. About 2.5 hours have elapsed and I am still feeling this weird sensation in my arm and throat. I almost went to the ER when I found this website, Thank you all for sharing your experiences. Your words have calmed me down a bit, I will never take Yasmin ever again!!! Good luck to all of you.
