When taking YAZ there is only one question to ask yourself, do you feel lucky? Well do you? I am the fiance of the daughter of y_oung_a_american_z_ombie who was laid to rest on Aug 4, 2008. (See posting) She was misdiagnosed with pleurisy by what we thought was a trusted doctor, and passed away from a pulmonary embolism. I want all who are planning to take this drug or currently taking this drug to know that YAZ is a silent killer. Be aware that although you may tell your doctor that you are on YAZ your doctor should look at ALL the possibilities when making a diagnosis. God bless and watch over those that have perished at the hand of this crap and also to the survivors who are telling the true story of this "Wonder drug"

I am so sorry for your loss. This drug is a nightmare. I was sick for three years after taking it non stop. It almost caused a major heart attack as it depleted my b12 levels to the point where it was deadly. Nerve damage, heart damage and my OBGYN would tell me my PMS was just getting worse with age. I lost a baby during this time due to the problems and I finally realized my OBGYN would never understand that all of this started after taking that pill for 6 months and stopping. I got sick the whole time and for three years after stopping. Finally and amazing Endocrinologist Dr. Pejman Cohan found the severe b12 deficiency in my blood and took action. Injecting b12 has saved me now. A few days ago my 35 year old best friend was diagnosed with full menopause after taking the Yasmin pill for 2 years. We are seeking an attorney. All of us should be. I am so sorry for your loss. So deeply sorry.
