My gyn prescribed this because of my irregular period and acne. I took this on the second day of my period. Everything was going ok, except for the nausea. Then after 4 days, I developed acid reflux (which I never had before), bloating, lightheadedness, high blood pressure and horrible anxiety and panic attacks. I couldn't eat anything without feeling the bile rise to my throat. Then with all that was happening to me, my anxiety and fear worsened that I made my parents stay with me until I got better. I kept on feeling my heart beating so fast that I almost felt like passing out. So after one week, I thought it was the pill affecting me instead of a bad stomach virus. Only after two days of getting off the pill, I feel much better. I do not have the bile rising to my throat, but I do burp a bit and can eat. I still feel a little anxious, but am doing much better. I think I would rather keep my irregular periods and facial acne after my bad experience with this pill. I was ok two years ago when I was on other birth control, so now I am reconsidering ever taking any BC again.
