I just started the Nuvaring YESTERDAY after being off of all birth control for about 6 months. Within a couple hours of putting it in, I was anxious, had abdominal pain, tingling in my foot/leg, dryness. I couldn't tell if I was just paranoid about having side effects or not, but I'm sure it was directly related. I took it out, felt better... tried it again hours later and symptoms came back shortly after. Tried finding info online and came across this site.. I just took it out for good and will be switching back to the pill. It's too new, not enough is known about side effects and it seems like blood clots and heart attacks are fairly common with this form of BC.
