Although i am over weight i have never had high blood pressure as a matter of fact i have below average blood pressure i have had two childbirths with no problems at all i have ben on femcon fe and i noticed i have been having the heart palps that my husband who has hiper tention 2 has had in the past.the only thing that has changed for me is taking this pill. I am stopping as of today. I experienced all of the side effects listed here off and on but wanted to try and tough it out. it is not worth it.
