Hello, Ladies.. I am 33 yrs old.. I have suffered a stroke from taking these birth control pills yasmin.. I was only taken these pills for about 4 months.. I woke up one day with a serve headache.. I had taken all the amount of tyelnol I could take in a 8 hr day. And the headache did not go away.. I just thought it was the weather or something.. It lasted for 2 days.I am a single parent of a 9 yr old daughter.. I woke up on monday morning still not feeling good. I got up and was going to start the day like I normally would.. Well I got in the shower and then got out and felt very dizzy. Then the next thing i remember was that my arm was shaking uncontollably and would not stop shaking.. I had to get my daughter up and she got dressed and got me dressed and called my dad.. Then she called 911. I was having a seizure.. Then by the time the ems got here my left side was completly numb.. Could not feel anything.. So then they did a ct scan.. I had a blood clot in the main vessel of my brain and it was bleeding.. Then they told me and my family that I may need brain surgery.. Then had to be transported to riverside methodist hospital.. Then I went into a full blown seizure.. I don't remember that at all. I remember curling into a ball and shaking and that is all that I remember.. Then I was at the hospital for 2 weeks.. Then when I came home about 4 days after that I went back.. My right side was going numb.. That was due to I was having more seizures.. I would love to get together with all of u and form a class action suit against this drug company. I am not like this but this is my life and the lives of other people.And not only that I have a daughter to raise and think about.. So if any of u would like to contact me..Please feel free to do so.. My email address is mcottrill2@verizon.net..
