I have been taking Yasmin since November 2006, since July this year I have been suffering from a condition called Chronic Urticaria. This involved a very itchy nettle rash, painful joints, swelling on my hands and feet, so much that I cant walk. My eyes swell up so much that I cant open them, my lips swell up, tightness in my chest almost so much that I can not breathe. I have been to the hospital loads of times, seen about 20 different doctors, been put on 5 different steroids, anti leprosy pills, antibiotics, post transplant pills, anti histamines and many more. I am just wondering if anyone else has suffered from any of these side effects whilst taking Yasmin?
